Benefit of wisdom

"So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom."
Psalm 90:12

Why is it important for you to apply your heart to wisdom? It is important because anywhere you find wisdom, there will be favour. The Bible says in Luke 2:52, "And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man."

The Bible speaking of wisdom in Proverbs 8:35 says, "For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD." This shows us that when you are a man or woman that values wisdom, your life will be filled with favour.

Those who do not prioritize wisdom will prefer to depend more on their own struggle because they do not know that favour can give them more than all they could have ever gotten by struggle. So, where do you find wisdom? The source of wisdom is the Word of God. Therefore, if you want to walk in wisdom, you have to prioritize what the Bible teaches.

Proverbs 3:1-4(AMP) says, "MY SON, forget not my law or teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments; For length of days and years of a life [worth living] and tranquility [inward and outward and continuing through old age till death], these shall they add to you. Let not mercy and kindness [shutting out all hatred and selfishness] and truth [shutting out all deliberate hypocrisy or falsehood] forsake you; bind them about your neck, write them upon the tablet of your heart. [Col. 3:9-12.] So shall you find favor, good understanding, and high esteem in the sight [or judgment] of God and man. [Luke 2:52.]"

Instruction.
