I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently will find me. (Proverbs 8:17)

The Wisdom Of God

God so loved the world He sent His only begotten Son to save men from sin. The love of God is unmerited for any man who seeks divine favor. Jesus testified to the Father’s love by dying on the cross. The apostle John wrote extensively about the love of God. There can be no question that God loves man and has done everything to offer a way of escape from His wrath. Long before Jesus came to earth, the wise man declared there was a special group of people whom God loved in a special way. God loves those who love His word and diligently seek His wisdom.

Solomon wrote many proverbs and received a special blessing of wisdom from the Lord. Throughout the proverbs, Solomon shows the power of wisdom rooted in the mind of God. God created man, and the only path to true happiness is found in the wisdom given by the Lord. Wisdom is the fear of the Lord that hates evil. Through a knowledge of the word of God, a proud and arrogant heart will not follow an evil way. Sound wisdom, understanding, and strength come from the One who established truth. By the knowledge of God, kings, rulers, princes, and nobles rule with divine justice and judgment. The wisdom from above is greater riches than the things of the earth.

Righteousness is established on those things that are right in the sight of God. The fruit of being righteous is of greater riches than gold and silver. When the wisdom of God possesses a man, he will find peace and safety. It is not in man to know what is right. The nature of man is carnal and self-serving. When the world follows the wisdom of men, they follow the way of unrighteousness because the spirit of man serves only the flesh. Divine wisdom establishes the heart of man to trust in the word of God. Righteousness is seeking the things that are true and holy from the word of God. This is where wisdom comes that will bring fulfillment to the heart of man.

God loves those who love Him because they seek after His wisdom. Wisdom loves those who love her and seek after her as the fruit of divine wisdom comes from God. The Bible is the manifestation of God’s wisdom to direct the footsteps of man. Reading and contemplating the Bible’s words will fill man’s heart with wisdom that will draw him closer to a divine relationship with His creator. God loves those who seek His word. The heart of the Lord is drawn closer to those who diligently seek Him because truth is found in His word. God and wisdom are inseparable. Righteousness is built upon the word of God.

The Bible is the mind of God. Everything a man needs to know who he is and why he is created is found in the pages of the Bible. No greater book can bring happiness and peace to the heart of man than what God has delivered to the world. The wisdom of God is better than all the riches of the world, and nothing can be compared to knowledge gained when a man spends time in the Book. God loves those who love His word and diligently seek divine knowledge daily. Read the Bible to know God. Find peace in the Bible. Seek the wisdom from above. Love God.
