Proverbs 14:7&8 (TPT) – “The words of the wise are like weapons of knowledge. If you need wise counsel, stay away from the fool. For the wisdom of the wise will keep life on the right track, while the fool only deceives himself and refuses to face reality”.
I had never realized that wisdom is a weapon. Yet, the Proverbist declares that the words of the wise are like weapons of knowledge. Your words and wisdom can be a weapon against the problems and challenges of life. Ecclesiastes 7:12 says: “For wisdom is a defense as money is a defense, But the excellence of knowledge is that wisdom gives life to those who have it“. Did you catch that? Wisdom is a defense. The more of God’s wisdom you have in your mind and spirit, the more defense potential you have in this life. Challenges will always be present, but with God’s defense weapon, wisdom, you will always be able to overcome any issue and obstacle. This is another reason that we must study the word of God DAILY. His word is a DEFENSE!
