El fundamento de la sabiduría [Eclesiastés 7:15–18] Durante la reunión de oración de esta mañana, medité sobre los temas de una familia bendecida, una iglesia bendecida y una nación bendecida, centrándome en 2 Crónicas 9:7: «¡Bienaventurados tus hombres! ¡Bienaventurados estos siervos tuyos, que están continuamente delante de ti y oyen tu sabiduría!». Al reflexionar sobre este versículo, contemplé la tremenda bendición que supone encontrar a un líder sabio. Esto se debe a que la nación de Israel fue bendecida precisamente porque su rey, Salomón, era sabio. Al defender la justicia y la rectitud, el sabio rey Salomón fortaleció a la nación (versículo 8); así, tal como observó la reina de Sabá, el pueblo de Israel era, en efecto, un pueblo bendecido.

The Most High God has anointed and appointed
even someone as lowly as

that
the 'Most High God' governs our lowly 'kingdom of mankind.'
Additionally,
when reflecting on the statement
that
the 'Most High God' gives the kingdom to anyone He wills
according
to His own purpose,
I
think it should naturally be in accordance with God's sovereign will.
Yet,
I wonder why humans, who are like a fleeting breath,
assert
that things should be according to our own will before God.
Another
point that comes to mind is that when we consider
that
'the Most High God' can even set the lowliest person on the throne,
I
realize that the Most High God has anointed and appointed
even
someone as lowly as myself as a pastor.
I can
only acknowledge this as an immense grace from God and offer my heartfelt
thanks.
