Proverbs 4:20-22 Attend to My Words

Proverbs 4:20-22 (KJV)  My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.  21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.  22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. 

God’s Word is life and health to our soul. The wise child who attend to God’s Word and would pay attention to His teaching find wisdom and strength for life.

There is a need for a consistent guidance that God’s Word provides which can only come when the wise child is stayed upon His Word. Let them not depart from thine eyes and keep them in the midst of thine heart.

There are many other competing thoughts seeking to take centre place in the heart of man. The wise child would take a constant and consistent hold of God’s Word to guide and nourish his heart and direct his life. Amen.
