Due to the pandemic, I work from home now, big change. My desk is up against my bookshelf and as I sit there, I see all the different Christian authors telling me what I need to believe. Between me & my mom’s books, we have a lot. I think way too much in fact. This reminds me of what King Solomon spoke about in Ecclesiastes 12v 11-12 “The words of the wise are like goads and the words of the masters of assemblies are fastened like nails, which are given from one shepherd. And further than these, my son, be ADMONISHED: of making many books there is no end, and much study is a weariness of the flesh.”
So what is King Solomon saying? Everybody is going to have their version of “religion” the making of many books is endless and studying is weary to the body but he then says, “In conclusion: Revere God and keep His commandments: for this is the whole man. For God will bring every work into judgment, concerning every hidden thing, whether it is good, or whether it is evil.” I think of it this way, talk is cheap but our actions paints a thousand words, hearing The Spirit.
In Conclusion, are we going to surround ourselves with knowledge, books galore, no need for The Helper or are we going to take the road lest taken? Intimacy with the Father, hearing His Spirit and walking as Yeshua walked. The choice is really ours. Tell me this day, who do you choose?
