Pro 8:22, “The LORD possessed me at the beginning of His way, Before His works of old
By wisdom the LORD created the heavens and the earth, but keep in mind, in the text Solomon humanizes wisdom which may confuse some!
Pro 3:19, THE LORD BY WISDOM FOUNDED THE EARTH; BY UNDERSTANDING HE ESTABLISHED THE HEAVENS;
Pro 8:23-24, I HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED FROM EVERLASTING, FROM THE BEGINNING, before there was ever an earth. When there were no depths I WAS BROUGHT FORTH, When there were no fountains abounding with water.
Again, “I” here is wisdom speaking as a person, but it is also true that JESUS is the wisdom of GOD!
1Co 1:24, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, CHRIST THE POWER OF GOD AND THE WISDOM OF GOD.
Pro 8:25-27, Before the mountains were settled, Before the hills, I WAS BROUGHT FORTH; WHILE AS YET HE HAD NOT MADE THE EARTH or the fields, Or the primal dust of the world. WHEN HE PREPARED THE HEAVENS, I was there, When He drew a circle on the face of the deep,
Wisdom was with JESUS when HE created the heavens and earth; for by JESUS all things were created
Col 1:16, FOR BY HIM ALL THINGS WERE CREATED THAT ARE IN HEAVEN AND THAT ARE ON EARTH, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. ALL THINGS WERE CREATED THROUGH HIM AND FOR HIM.
Pro 8:30-31, Then I was beside HIM as a master craftsman; And I was daily HIS delight, REJOICING ALWAYS BEFORE HIM, REJOICING IN HIS INHABITED WORLD, AND MY DELIGHT WAS WITH THE SONS OF MEN.
Wisdom rejoiced at what HE, JESUS had created, but wisdom rejoiced even more when JESUS created the human race!
Pro 8:34-35, Blessed is the man who listens to ME, WATCHING DAILY AT MY GATES, Waiting at the posts of my doors. For whoever finds ME finds life, And obtains favor from the LORD;
There are 66 gates in the bible in which we can find the LORD! Each book is designed by HIM to lead you to the creator of heaven and earth; and if you find HIM you will also find eternal life in HIM!
1Ch 16:10-11, GLORY IN HIS HOLY NAME; LET THE HEARTS OF THOSE REJOICE WHO SEEK THE LORD! SEEK THE LORD AND HIS STRENGTH; SEEK HIS FACE EVERMORE!
