AXE THE ROOT!

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Our Honorable Minister of the Gospel through Self Defense – Minister Job from the East, once made this statement as recorded in Scripture: “I made a covenant with mine eyes, why then should I think upon a maid?” – Job 31:1

And I found it rather weird that he made the covenant with his eyes yet it was the mind (thoughts) that he worked on. Shouldn’t the right thing be to make the covenant with his eyes and guard his eyes against looking at a maid/young woman?

SEEKING WISDOM 2

Previously, we saw that the way to find wisdom is to go through the land of the dead. No one would go through that land except they knew the importance and worth of what lies on the other side and then decide against all odds to get it.

You know, many times in multiple-choice quizzes, when you don’t know which option is right, you start by ticking off the obviously wrong options, right?😏 The people in search of wisdom here applied this same technique. They said, ‘We don’t know where we can find wisdom, but we do know where it cannot be found. And one of those places, according to scripture, where you cannot find wisdom is in the land of the living.”
