Prayer and Reading
Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.
♬ Hymn for scheduled worship: Korean/English Hymnal #521 Straight is the Gate to Salvation (#253 in previous version)
The majority of believers have difficulty with the fact that prayer and reading are very important. Reading is especially needed for the power of your thoughts. The majority of young people don’t have a large vocabulary, which is why parents must help them with words and content while reading with their children. Therefore, we must help children so that reading is fun. Because youth and college students do not have much time, they must select and read good books. Reading good books is similar to having good meetings. This is because our lives can change through reading. The adult generation must be able to read good books and discuss them with their families, and we must be at the point where we can give good books to our colleagues as presents. What is most important, though, is the fact that you will absolutely succeed if you read books related to your personal sense of specialty.
1. 24 hour prayer and 24 hour reading
We must always have the habit of prayer and the habit of reading. This is how we build up knowledge and how our faith develops. Not only this, but this is how our skills are formed and a sense of spirituality and intellect develop. Because of this, possessing the habits of prayer and reading are incredibly important.
2. True wisdom
True wisdom cannot come out from incorrect knowledge. Therefore, true knowledge is important. The knowledge of all knowledge is knowing the Gospel. This is because true wisdom comes out from the true Gospel. Also, if you get to the point of true prayer coming out, you will receive tremendous answers.
3. The source of wisdom
The most important thing is knowing the source of wisdom. Today’s Scripture reading says the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. Every time we read a book, every time we pray, we must always discover the source and be able to enjoy it. Then, we will always be able to apply the source to everything in our lives. With this mystery, we must read in order to gain strength.
