Today in our Inspired Leadership Minute I want us to look at Proverbs 16:20, “Whoever gives thought to the word will discover good, and blessed is he who trusts in the LORD.”
The phrase “whoever gives heed to” could also be translated “whoever is prudent” or “whoever takes note of” the instruction in God’s word will discover the truth of God. The person who trusts in God’s word is blessed.
Reading God’s word or listening to a sermon is not enough. We must apply God’s word to our lives. We must be prudent and do what God’s word tells us. If we do what God tells us in His word and trust in Him, we will be blessed.
We know that God has our best interests at heart. We trust God and know God is pleased by our obedience. We need to obey God. We need to trust God. Then we will be blessed by God.
Please leave me a comment and let me know how this week’s Inspired Leadership Minute inspired you!
