Proverb 30 Who Ascended or Descended?

Proverb 30 (NKJV)by Chuck Ness

The proverb asks if you know the name of the One who Who ascended to and descended from heaven, the One gathered the wind in His fists, the One who bound the waters into a garment, the One who established all the ends of the earth. It asks if you know the name of Him, or His Son's name. Some 900 years before Jesus was born, Solomon knew that God's Son would appear on earth. A prophecy bound up in a proverb. Long before the Pharisees would accuse Him of equating Himself with God, Solomon knew God's Son who would descend from heaven.

We are drawing close to the End of Times, and there is absolutely nothing more important in life than being born again of the Spirit of God; to know that you are saved from eternal death and judgment and that you have an assurance that you are going to heaven because you have been born into His family, into His Kingdom; to be set free from the burden of sin, and be able to experience God's forgiveness, peace and power. 

This has all been freely provided by an unmerited grace through the atoning sacrifice on Calvary of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. This is the Gospel that was proclaimed by the angels at His birth some 900 years after Agur was moved by the Spirit of God to ask us if we know what His name is. It has since been preached throughout the entire world.

Proverbs 21:4 Sometimes God Suspends Freewill

The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD,
Like the rivers of water;
He turns it wherever He wishes.
(Proverbs 21:4)

When you wonder why a World does things that are clearly out of the norm for that individual, sometimes it can be by Devine intervention from God. I'm not saying that the evil things some World leaders have done are by God's will, but the good things that an evil leader may have done that are moral, ethical, and logical can be attributed to God. Mind you, its not because their heart has all of a sudden become pure or they had an Epiphany, but rather it's because God turned them from that which they wanted to do, to doing His will instead. I'm sure that like us, they too wonder why they did those things that are not what they intended.

See, while we do have free will, God does reserve the right to remove our free will from time to time in order to have a good thing accomplished for other reasons. Case in point would be when Balaam was hired by Balak, the King of Moab, to curse the Israelites. Instead he blessed them, because God would not allow him to curse His people. (Numbers 22–24).

Proverb 3:5-6 Trust The Lord

Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths. 
Proverb 3:5-6

by Chuck Ness

So many times we all wish we had a gift to peer into the future. All men desire that gift so they can live their life accordingly. They want to be able to avoid the pitfalls, and get right to the great things that will happen. They desire the gift so they will make the right choice. Well, we have that gift, it comes from God. All we need to do is have the faith in God to do for us that which He promises. If he gave us a gift to see the future outright, then He would not expect us to live by faith. We need to have faith that God will direct our path.
