Word for the Week: Understanding

Bible Scripture:

Proverbs 18:2 – A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.

Proverbs 17:27 – He that hath knowledge spareth his words: [and] a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.

Quotes by Brother Branham:

Now, I want to speak to you this morning on—on parable, on some way that even the—the most unchurched person in here would be able to understand. Now, we come to church to better ourselves. We come to make ourselves better people, better Christians, better citizens, better fathers, better mothers, better neighbors. We come because Christ has told us if we would come, ask anything in His Name, where we are assembled together as many as two or three, He would be with us and would grant it to us. So, what could be any more, be any better to us today than to know that we are at the church for to embetter ourselves, to broaden our understanding? How many would say, “That’s what I’m here for”? Let’s see. “I—I want a better understanding.” And we can’t—we can’t have a better understanding unless it…And if we’re going to have an understanding of God, it must come out of God’s Word, for the Word is what God gave us to feed our hungry souls. And the Holy Spirit was sent to take the Word of God and to feed us by the Word. You see it? See, we…The Holy Spirit is sent from God, to take the Word of God and to give It to us as we have need. Now, I’m so glad that God made a provision like that. Aren’t you? That He would feed us.
