Behold
the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom.
Job
28:28
others in gaining a name among men,
others in self-indulgence;
but the Scripture informs us that it consists in pleasing God.
will be sure to please him.
receive his word,
believe his gospel,
trust in his son,
worship at his throne,
observed his ordinances,
copy his example,
seek his Holy Spirit,
withdrawal from his enemies,
unite with his friends,
resist Satan, and
strive against sin.
and secure all real good.
the wealth of the universe is their portion,
and the mansions of glory their home.
secures the greatest good,
enjoys the greatest pleasure, and
obtains the greatest honor is wise,
then every real Christian is wise;
for such is the happiness of everyone that truly fears God.
for there is no want unto them that fear him.
Be
it my only wisdom here
To
serve the Lord with filial fear,
With
loving gratitude;
Superior
sense may I display
By
shunning every evil way,
And
walking in the good.
