a touch of truth…
One of my favorite lyrics comes from Jeremy Camp: “You gave me truth that lies could never reach.”
Here’s one…
“Every word of God proves true…”
This clause in Prov. 30 hit me profoundly this morning. It isn’t that I haven’t read this verse before. I read it right near once a month. But, I’m learning that Spirit pops things out when we’re going to need it. I don’t know when in the next bit I’m going to need this truth, but it will be there for me.
To take this thought to the next level, here’s a glimpse into how I’ve been reading Proverbs lately…
I’m testing a hypothesis. Test it with me:
–> Every time you see the word “word” apply the John 1 principle and think Jesus (the Word).
–> Every time you see the word “knowledge” substitute Jesus.
–> Every time you see wisdom, substitute Holy Spirit.
–> Every time you see “fear of the LORD” think Father.
With these substitutions see if the verse makes sense, perhaps even more sense…
In this vein of thinking, I take this clause from the verse in Proverbs this morning a step further and ponder it this way:
“Every [word=Word=Jesus] of God proves true…”
“All of Jesus who is God proves true…”
Work with it a bit and see how it goes…
