Taking Dominion Through Wisdom - Day 47
Taking Dominion Through Wisdom - Day 47 Wisdom Welcomes Discipline - Proverbs 3:11
As you consider the dose of wisdom prescribed today, think back to the last time you received chastisement from the Lord. Was your attitude and response in alignment with this verses? If we are honest, we would have to agree that our sanctification is not where it needs to be. However, if we are to grow in wisdom, then we need to grow in this area of receiving discipline from the Lord.
Many of us enjoy life when there is abundant blessings, prosperity, and apparent security from God. But what do we do when there is trouble? What do we do when our lives are not working out the way we planned? What do we do when we experience hardship? Our text teaches us how to respond during days of adversity. We need to remember that God is sovereign in the days of blessings as well as in the days of adversity. And He uses these events to conform us into the image of Christ.
Once again, we see instructions from a loving father to a son (a child). And when Solomon exhorts - do not despise - what he is saying is - do not reject. Why does Solomon say this? It is because our natural inclination is to reject discipline. If we are to grow in wisdom, then we need to have a teachable spirit. And this is especially true when it comes to God's correction. Learn to receive it, learn to appreciate that correction is the response of a loving Father. The next time you perceive the chastening hand of God in your life, rejoice to know that you are bearing the mark of sonship. One of the ways He shows His love towards His children is through correction. Have you come to love and appreciate the loving hand of your Father? If so, then you are well on your way down the path of wisdom.
