The Proverbist taught that wisdom is the principal thing. He declared in Proverbs 4:7 – Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. A wise person appreciates and honors wisdom and understanding. They do whatever it takes to gain knowledge and understanding. They pay the price to obtain it. One of the beautiful and powerful things about wisdom is that once you obtain it, it’s yours for the rest of your life. You can store up wisdom and knowledge for a future season where you will need it. Conversely, the foolish think that they know it all. They don’t need anybody to tell them anything because they know better. The fool will pass right by knowledge and not even realize what they are missing. That lack of knowledge will ultimately lead them to their destruction. People perish for lack of knowledge. Determine today to prioritize your pursuit of wisdom and knowledge, especially the knowledge and wisdom that comes from God’s word. It will be life to you and health to your body!
Proverbs 10:14 – Wise people store up knowledge, but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction.
