THE PRINCIPLE OF TRUE UNDERSTANDING

"Understanding is the wellspring of life unto him that has it..."Proverbs 16 : 22.

In my little walk of life and experience in sharing in God's light, I have found, that what every man lacks, is the vital knowledge and principle of true understanding.

All of man's problems are not the numerous things he thinks or talks about. All of man's problems is the problem of understanding. Every problem of man, has its root in man's lack of the vital knowledge of understanding. When God said, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge", (Hosea 4 : 6)- it is obvious that what God wants for every man, is the knowledge of understanding, so that man instead of being destroyed, would come to life in Him, which is the main purpose why God wants man to have understanding.

God's problem with man is that he understands not, neither does he comprehend the light of true reality, of which knowledge and understanding is key. Man have not the true understanding of God in him, and that's why he perishes.
Jeremiah 9 : 23 - 24

"Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he UNDERSTANDETH and KNOWETH ME..."

The issue of understanding is such a vital and deep one that I believe that all that is being said now, may not capture clearly all of its picture. But I think it might just be enough, to impart the love and desire for true understanding, that every man need. To achieve this, would be just a great priviledge and that would have serve the main purpose for this publication.

No relationship is of true spiritual value even your relationship with God, if there is no understanding. True spiritual understanding, is the bed rock of our relationship with God and of our fellow man. It is said that, "Two cannot walk together, except they be agreed- (Amos 3 : 3). True agreement is founded on true understanding. For example, the problem of most marriages is the problem of two people who obviously do not understand each other. They may have truely loved each other, but if they have not understanding of themselves, the relationship might breakdown. Hence understanding becomes a factor for the sustainance of any relationship. Love may get you into a relationship, but to sustain that relationship you would require understanding of the other person.

Understanding is, a vital principle and law of life and of any relationship, God inclusive. As such, every one who truely desires to know God and come into the expression of true life in Him, must seek understanding. No man truely can walk with God, who has not understanding of God in him. The reason the Church is so far from reality, is because she lacks this vital element in her. God said, My people- not the unbelievers per say, His own very people, children of God, christians as it were- are destroyed for lack of knowledge- which is true understanding. It was what Christ Jesus our LORD Himself, came that we might have.
1 John 5 : 20
And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know Him that is true, and we are in Him that is true, even in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

He came to give us understanding, which is the vital knowledge of God and of true life also in Him. The understanding He came to give is the true expression of life in Him that is eternal- John 10 : 10.

The man that wanders out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead- Proverbs 21 : 16.

It must be noted, that understanding is vital to life and destiny in God. Without it, the life and destiny of man is locked up. It is understanding, that opens your life and destiny unto you and help you come into its expression on the earth.

The vital knowledge and principle of true understanding is, to have love and desire and to hunger, for the true knowledge of God and for the true expression of life also in Him. This is the true way of understanding. Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding, if thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures, THEN shall thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God-
Proverbs 2 : 3 - 5
