Compreensão
A verdadeira compreensão vem de Deus. Os caminhos do Senhor são mais altos que os nossos. Mas Ele nos convida a buscar entendimento — e promete iluminar quem o busca de coração.
A sabedoria de Deus
Os meus pensamentos não são os vossos pensamentos. A incompreensibilidade de Deus nos leva à humildade e adoração.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
9 Woe to him that strives with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashions it, What make you? or your work, He has no hands?
28 Have you not known? have you not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, faints not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
3 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.
4 For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
Buscar entendimento
Clama a mim e responder-te-ei. A sabedoria é a coisa principal — busque o entendimento com todo o coração.
3 Call to me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you know not.
7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all your getting get understanding.
29 He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalts folly.
21 There are many devices in a man' heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.
2 Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD ponders the hearts.
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.
Iluminação divina
A entrada da tua Palavra dá luz e entendimento. Deus revela verdades ocultas e transforma nossa visão da realidade.
130 The entrance of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go: I will guide you with my eye.
5 As you know not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so you know not the works of God who makes all.
3 Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
26 But Jesus beheld them, and said to them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and said to them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.
28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus.29 And if you be Christ', then are you Abraham' seed, and heirs according to the promise.
21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempts he any man:
