"The reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord is the beginning and the principal and choice part of knowledge [its starting point and its essence]; but fools despise skillful and godly Wisdom, instruction, and discipline." -Proverbs 1:7 (AMP)
In our lives there are many sources claiming to present us with "the facts" or knowledge. Whether its the news media, friends, social media, television shows or other sources, they claim to have the truth. It can seem difficult sorting through all of the influences, but we don't need to solely rely on these sources of information.
God has given us truth. He has given us His Word. He has sent His Son to show us truth in human form. God has provided us the the Holy Spirit to guide our lives. When we are struggling to find truth, we should start with worshiping God and choosing God as the essence of our knowledge. Instead of ignoring or despising the lessons God gives us, we need to learn and practice the knowledge and wisdom He provides for us!
Don't trust the world for wisdom, trust God's Word for wisdom!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for caring for me and allowing me to learn from You. Help me to gain wisdom from Your Word and to apply it in my life. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
