What kind of knowledge do you seek?

August 2, 2012

Proverbs 2:6  “ For the Lord giveth wisdom : out of His mouth, knowledge and understanding .”

            Knowledge is the first step to wisdom; we are told over and over in school to seek knowledge –for some the human knowledge and for others spiritual knowledge. Human knowledge is considered so important by some that lotteries are helping pay for it (Right).

            Solomon teaches us also to seek knowledge of Him and His word so as to gain understanding. Wisdom is not historically given to students or the human knowledge proponents. Wisdom is a gift from God; He personally speaks to the person through His Word.

            What kind of knowledge do you seek? What kind of knowledge do you support? What is your responsibility to God and His human brothers and sisters? Are you learning what you should and applying it to your life?

Lord, we love you today and realize that there are many false gods of knowledge , understanding, and wisdom. Help us, Lord, to speak out where we should so as to influence one person positively. For your service we live.   Amen.
