WISDOM

Wisdom and the will of God are intimately related...Nothing is more vital for practical knowledge of the purpose of God than wisdom. -- Sinclair Ferguson

 

My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you, turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding, and if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God. For the LORD gives wisdom, and from His mouth come knowledge and understanding. Then you will understand what is right and just and fair --- every good path. For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant in your soul (Proverbs 2:1-6, 9-10).
