Wise Men Seek Him

Wise Men Seek Him

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom…” (Proverbs 9:10).

After Christ was born, the Bible tells us in Matthew chapter two that Wise Men came from the East to bow before Him and worship Him.  They went to great lengths just to get a glimpse of the child and traveled a long distance for many months, following the star. When they saw Him, they were so overwhelmed.  The scripture says they fell to their faces to honor and worship Him.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.  That means that we should have a reverential honor and respect for Him—just like the Wise Men did.  We are wise when we set everything else in life aside in order to seek Him.  We are wise when we worship Him and give Him everything that we are.  We are wise when we take time to honor Him.  Remember, God is a rewarder of the people who diligently seek after Him.  As you continue to put Him first in all you do, you’ll increase in wisdom and discernment, and you’ll move forward into the life of blessing He has in store for you.
Father in heaven, I choose wisdom.  I choose to put You first and seek You in all that I do.  I honor You and bless Your name.  Thank You for the many blessing You have prepared for me.  In Jesus’ Name.  Amen.

womb is a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,

so are the children of one's youth. How blessed is the

man whose quiver is full of them; they will not be

ashamed when they speak with their enemies in the

gate." Psalm 127:3-5
