Wisdom is Supreme
Prov. 3:13,15b How blessed is the man who finds wisdom, And the man who gains understanding…nothing you desire compares with her.
Prov. 4:7 Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.
I think of understanding mentioned here as seeing life from God’s perspective with wisdom having the added dimension of living life accordingly.
How do you get wisdom?
Pray for It.
Prov. 2:6 For the LORD gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.
James 1:5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
Meditate on/Engraft Scripture.
Psalms 119:104 From Your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way.
Wisdom/understanding leads to abundant living. (John 6:63b …the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.)
Obey Your Way to Understanding.
John 7:17 “If anyone is willing to do His will, he will know of the teaching, whether it is of God or whether I speak from Myself.
Prov. 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
Psalm 119:71 It is good for me that I was afflicted, that I may learn Your statutes.
Prov. 28:5b …those who seek the LORD understand all things.
Let’s pray, saturate our minds and hearts with scripture, and obey.
