WISDOM ABOVE ALL
MAIN TEXT: PROVERBS 16:16
How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!
Proverbs 9:10- “the fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom; and the knowledge of the Holy is understanding.
Basically, our study today teaches that the fear of God is foundational for true wisdom; all other types of learning cannot compete unless built upon the knowledge of the Lord Himself. In other to develop the fear of the Lord, we must recognize God for whom He is. Those who fear the Lord have a continual awareness of Him, a deep reverence for Him and sincere commitment to obey Him.
Do you desire the wisdom of God? You need to position yourself, as the year runs out. Decide to allow the reality of God’s true nature to cause you to fall down in worship, and then you will be in the right position to gain wisdom. Wisdom is a priority and we are told to seek it above all. Proverbs 16:16.
Until your heart is in the right relationship with God, you will not be able to have wisdom that comes from heaven” James 3:17. To be truly wise with godly wisdom, you must have more than head knowledge.
Without the fear of the Lord, one may gain some practical choices for this life, but he/she is missing the one ingredient that defines a wise person. The ultimate and eternal happiness will be for those who are wise.
DIVINE WISDOM IS FAR ABOVE EARTHLY WISDOM
