Facing big responsibilities
Do not let this Book of the Law
depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you
may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be
prosperous and successful. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and
courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD
your God will be with you wherever you go.
(Joshua 1:8-9 NIV)
If any of you lacks wisdom, he
should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault,
and it will be given to him.
(James 1:5 NIV)
And he said to man, "The fear of
the Lord--that is wisdom, and to shun evil is understanding."
(Job 28:28 NIV)
For the LORD gives wisdom, and from
his mouth come knowledge and understanding. He holds victory
in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is
blameless, for he guards the course of the just
and protects the way of his faithful ones. Then you will understand
what is right and just and fair--every good path. For wisdom
will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.
Discretion will protect you, and understanding will guard you.
(Proverbs 2:6-11 NIV)
The fear of the LORD is the
beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
For through me your days will be many, and years will be added to
your life.
(Proverbs 9:10-11 NIV) |
