The Prize of God's Wisdom
Reading: Proverb 3 vs
1 – 16kjv
Key verses
14 – 15
It is
generally accepted that precious things that are rare to find are very
expansive. Take for instance, the metal – gold, it boasts itself as one of the
most expansive metals on earth, very uncommon; little wonder the scripture used
it for a comparison.
“For the
merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof
than fine gold” – vs 14kjv.
It is
crystal clear from the verse above that the worth of wisdom exceeds that of
gold. The word of God didn’t stop there. In the sequel verse, it was compared
again with a gem, rubies—one of the precious gemstones. God’s wisdom is
priceless. Weigh it on the scale of balance against all the precious metals and
gemstones in the world, it outweighs them all.
There is
nothing you can compare with it. It is incomparable and yet God offers it
freely to everyone who sincerely desires it.
Give someone
that doesn’t know the worth of gold, and ask back in few days, the stifles you
will receive is beyond what mind could conjure. But flip the thing and find
another that knows the worth of it and places an inestimable value on it you
will discover that even in years to come, it is kept in a secured place.
Thoughts: You
easily loose something when you don’t know the price tag, worth and value
placed on it.
Prayers:
Lord I pray that I will not be careless with your wisdom. I ask this in Jesus
Christ name.
