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 high have the heavens been above the earth, So high have been My ways above your ways, And My thoughts above your thoughts.
9 Wo [to] him who is striving with his Former, (A potsherd with potsherds of the ground!) Doth clay say to its Framer, What dost thou? And thy work, He hath no hands?
28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard? The God of the age -- Jehovah, Preparer of the ends of the earth, Is not wearied nor fatigued, There is no searching of His understanding.
3 Great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, And of His greatness there is no searching.
2 Before mountains were brought forth, And Thou dost form the earth and the world, Even from age unto age Thou [art] God.
4 For a thousand years in Thine eyes [are] as yesterday, For it passeth on, yea, a watch by night.
33 O depth of riches, and wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable His judgments, and untraceable His ways!
Buscar entendimento
Clama a mim e responder-te-ei. A sabedoria é a coisa principal — busque o entendimento com todo o coração.
3 Call unto Me, and I do answer thee, yea, I declare to thee great and fenced things -- thou hast not known them.
7 The first thing [is] wisdom -- get wisdom, And with all thy getting get understanding.
29 Whoso is slow to anger [is] of great understanding, And whoso is short in temper is exalting folly.
21 Many [are] the purposes in a mans heart, And the counsel of Jehovah it standeth.
2 Every way of a man [is] right in his own eyes, And Jehovah is pondering hearts.
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of the glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the recognition of him,
18 and increase ye in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; to him [is] the glory both now, and to the day of the age! Amen.
Iluminação divina
A entrada da tua Palavra dá luz e entendimento. Deus revela verdades ocultas e transforma nossa visão da realidade.
130 The opening of Thy words enlighteneth, Instructing the simple.
8 I cause thee to act wisely, And direct thee in the way that thou goest, I cause mine eye to take counsel concerning thee.
5 As thou knowest not what [is] the way of the spirit, How -- bones in the womb of the full one, So thou knowest not the work of God who maketh the whole.
3 Jesus answered and said to him, Verily, verily, I say to thee, If any one may not be born from above, he is not able to see the reign of God;
26 And Jesus having earnestly beheld, said to them, With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.
35 and having sat down he called the twelve, and he saith to them, If any doth will to be first, he shall be last of all, and minister of all.
28 there is not here Jew or Greek, there is not here servant nor freeman, there is not here male and female, for all ye are one in Christ Jesus;29 and if ye [are] of Christ then of Abraham ye are seed, and according to promise -- heirs.
21 all things prove; that which is good hold fast;22 from all appearance of evil abstain ye;
3 for walking in the flesh, not according to the flesh do we war,
18 we not looking to the things seen, but to the things not seen; for the things seen [are] temporary, but the things not seen [are] age-during.
13 Let no one say, being tempted -- From God I am tempted, for God is not tempted of evil, and Himself doth tempt no one,
