Words of Wisdom: Vanity of Vanities
Words of Encouragement and Consecration:
Many declare that they desire the wisdom of God. True Wisdom brings revelation knowledge directly from the LORD. God has revealed many mysteries of His Holy Word to me. Some were very frightening indeed. As I fearfully pondered one such mystery, God consoled my soul by explaining that it was what I needed to know in order to move forward as His Messenger. He asked me to read the scriptures that are shown below. He pointed out to me that I was not alone in what I had discovered, and that when King Solomon discovered the same mystery. He too, was distraught to the point that he declared, “Vanity of Vanities, all is Vanity.” He, like I, came to know and understand that even in the midst of the darkest and most dangerous journeys, God never leaves us alone. We never become lonely, and He always brings us to a place of safety and peace. In our lack of understanding and fear, we ultimately conclude that our minds and knowledge are insufficient in trying to cope with what awaits all those that do not love God.
In all that you do, Trust God. There is nothing good in this life outside of God. There is no existence or survival without God on your side. Make Him your everyday companion. Seek Him every second of the day! He will teach you how to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth…and as One. Amen.
Scripture Reference: Eccl 1:12-18
12 I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem. 13 And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith. 14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit. 15 That which is crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered. 16 I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I am come to great estate, and have gotten more wisdom than all they that have been before me in Jerusalem: yea, my heart had great experience of wisdom and knowledge. 17 And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit. 18 For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.
