"To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;" Proverbs 1:2

"To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;" Proverbs 1:2

"know wisdom". Wisdom is the application of the knowledge (details) that you got from getting understanding (concept). "Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding."(Proverbs 4:7)
So many people want wisdom because of the benefits of having it in your life. But without understanding and knowledge, you'll never obtain wisdom because they work hand in hand. You must get understanding and knowledge, then apply it to your life - Now that's wisdom!!! All you really have to do is ask.
"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him."(James 1:5)
The verses in this devotion are just the tip of the iceberg concerning wisdom.
"Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her."(Proverbs 4:8) God's Wisdom is the pathway to blessing!! "Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee."(Proverbs4:6). Promotion, Honor and Preservation come with wisdom!!! You can't get this stuff at 1-800-mo-better, it only comes from God Himself!!! "Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold. For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it."(Proverbs 8:10-11)
What can I say, we need this stuff and it comes from the Bible. A Bible is a book that God wrote that you can get at the local dollar store for 10 bucks or you just might get some Church to give you one for free!!! Read it and be WISE!!! Need I say more, Do smart and get wisdom. God Bless your wisdom journey.
