A proverb a day: Proverbs 1:5 -Seek wisdom and gain reward.

“A wise [man] will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:” Proverbs 1:5 KJV
A person that is wise will continue to get more wisdom. They understand that there is always something more they can learn. They will seek out “wise counsels” as the scripture teaches, in teachers, books, etc. A truly wise person will not let up until they attain all they can. Now that I think about it, it will take a lifetime of learning and experiences and then we still won’t get it all.
But don’t fret, continue to seek. Continue to press. For even if we are just seeking we are blessed for the scripture teaches in Hebrews 11:6 “he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Do you want to be rewarded? Well keep seeking!
Be wise.
How to be wise….

After reading my Proverb for the day yesterday, Proverbs 9. I realized that I need to learn how to be wise, for that is what the scripture urges us to do in verse 6.
So I asked my self the question…”How do I learn to be wise?”
In verse 10 the answer lies. “Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Knowledge of the Holy One results in understanding.”
So what I know now is that I need with all my might, with all my heart, to seek knowledge of the Holy One. I will do that by staying in what he left for us here on earth.
The Bible.
His Holy Word.
Everything he wants us to know about Him lies in the Holy Bible.
So if you want to learn to be wise, let me encourage you to read the Bible.
Thanks for stopping by.
