God isn’t wringing his hands and wondering how he can pull a situation out for you. There is a simple solution for every person. Our biggest problem is our inability to hear God’s voice. The way we know what God is saying is through his Word. If we would get into Word of God and meditate on it, the Lord would speak to us. He could give us wisdom and direction.

So many individuals nod their heads in accordance to the word of God and answers but in practical sense, most people don’t really believe that they can solve their problems at work, home- anywhere- by the word of God
Wisdom and Instruction
In Proverbs, chapter 1, Solomon described why he wrote the book that would follow
To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; to receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment and equity; to give suability to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion- Proverbs 1:2-4
Solomon said the book of Proverbs was meant to give wisdom to the simple and understanding to those who don’t have any.
Then he spoke about the good this wisdom and understanding will bring you and the bad it will help you avoid. The truths contained in the book of Proverbs alone will instruct you concerning all kinds of things.
Through God’s word, you can learn how to deal with people you can gain wisdom if you’re a boss, an employee or a salesperson. Take God’s word mediate on it daily and put his knowledge inside of you and the Holy Spirit will at the appropriate time, quicken things and show you what to do.
I’ll give you anything the Lord told Jeremiah
Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations- Jeremiah 1:5

Just as God ordained the positive plan towards Jeremiah, his plan for us have been outlined but we do not study his word, some certain things and steps will not be revealed, we will keep moving in darkness this is why we have to take God’s word, mediate on it day and night. Get to where the word of God is more real to you than the person siting next to you on the bus. When you’re at work, even though you interact with people and do your job well, may the truth be that you’re constantly thinking about scriptures and what God is speaking to you.

I repeat mediate on God’s word and try to relate to different circumstances and situations. If you would do that, you would prosper more accidentally than you ever have on purpose
My son, attend to my words, incline thin ear unto my sayings- Proverbs 4:20
Attend to my words simply means give attention. You’ve been in school before when the teacher was up there talking, and even though you were looking straight at her, you weren’t attending to her words.
The words were going in one ear and out the other. You were daydreaming. Your focus was somewhere else.
Likewise, many people go through the motions of reading passages of scriptures without truly attending to the words they are reading, you could probably read an entire chapter of the Word in no time and then close your Bible as soon as you’re done.
But if you were to ask what the content of the chapters includes, you certainly will not be able to tell. I am not trying to condemn you, I just want you to realize how often you and I fail to attend to his Words.

The phrase ‘’incline thine ear’’ isn’t telling you to change the position of your head. It’s talking about listening with your heart. It’s speaking of focus and commitment. You must listen to God’s word with your heart, not just your head. Place a high priority and value on the Word of God. Start taking each one of these words as being a direct word from God to you. Attend to it. Incline your ear to it. Then you’ll start getting the results I’m describing

‘’My son, attend to my words, incline thin ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh- Proverbs 4:20-22
God’s word is life. No matter how grave the situation you’re in, God’s word is life and health to your flesh!
Good to hear from you afam, Thanks for sharing with Us!
@STEEMCHURCH
I have always said that it is not the same to say what the Bible says, to say what the Bible means, to meditate on the word of God is to constantly repeat what we are reading in order to have a better understanding of the scriptures with these repetitions our body soul and spirit connects with God to receive its true meaning. In his word we have the answers for everything in life. Thank you for teaching today God bless you @afamefuneuche
God always speaks to us through where and from whom, what is there is to be willing to listen and discern who is God who speaks to me. Thanks for c
Just like when the donkey spoke, and so it happens when God wants to talk to you, the search for whatever there is for Him, there are no limits and now God keeps talking so we only have to be always in connection with God.
