Wisdom is the Principle Thing

Wisdom is the principal thing in life. *“For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.” Proverbs 8:11. Wisdom is our defence in life. For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it. Ecclesiastes 7:12. Therefore, as you study and meditate on God’s Word, you grow in Wisdom. Soon you will find that the thoughts of God become your thoughts

Wisdom is your strength, *“Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion forever in anything that is done under the sun.” Ecclesiastes 9:16. You are sheltered by God’s Wisdom and Wealth that He has so generously provided for you. As you store up an abundance of knowledge from God’s Word, His Wisdom becomes your wisdom. This Wisdom now preserves your life. Wisdom is better than weapons, “Wisdom is better than weapons of war: but one sinner destroyeth much good.” Ecclesiastes 9:18*.

Wisdom is profitable to direct, “*If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct.” Ecclesiastes 10:10. God has laid out a beautiful life for you and has given you the right to receive it. Whatever you set your hand to accomplish, you will find it prosper before your eyes. Therefore, know that Wisdom is found in God’s precious Word
