In Proverbs 22:28, the wisdom of the Lord instructs us not to remove “the ancient landmarks that our fathers have set.”
God set the markers that allocated property allotments to the families of Israel. The text in Proverbs instructs Israel to remain obedient to those established territorial boundaries. However, there is another level at which we may apply these words of wisdom.
It is wise to respect the boundaries within which God has established our place of ministry and service. We do well to stay within our calling. We should recognize that our measure of Divine equipping and provision is commensurate to the fulfillment of our God-given mandate. The abundance of grace and protection is available when we operate within the lines God has established as our place of ministry.
