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 undersatnd the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God. For the Lord gives wisdom, and from his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.

He holds victory in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blamesless, for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones.

Benefits of Wisdom

There are many benefits to having godly wisdon, not carnal wisdom which is man's wisdom trying to understand godly things. But we are to seek God's wisdom to understand even the leadership of the Holy Spirit.

We are taught that when we get knowledge, to also get understanding of the knowledge that we have, but what good is knowing and understanding if we do not know proper application of the knowing?

Thus, we are to seek God for His understanding, of His knowledge, and we should pray for His wisdom as James teaches in chapter 1, and God will give us wisdom freely to all who ask of Him, so that we may the who, how, what, and when to properly apply the knowledge with understanding in our circumstances and life situations.

Therefore, one benefit of having godly wisdom is that we will have no problems making proper life decisions in those things that matter and are important to us in our daily lives.

Good topic Angel!:yay::applause:
