Joyful is the person who finds wisdom, the one who gains understanding.
Dear Ones: Who Finds Wisdom! Wisdom is a companion of Truth. The truth you know (understand) will set you free. When you are free then eyes of your understanding are open to discern good from evil and the works of God from the works of men.
This verse has an implied quest to search out and to find the wisdom that lies beneath surface appearances. How do we acquire this wisdom and a discerning heart, is the question at hand. The Word of God is our answer. Hebrews 4:12 instructs us, “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” When we sow the seeds of His Word into our hearts, some of the crops we reap are discernment, wisdom, and truth.
The beginning of our search for wisdom is to go to the Word. Don’t read the Scriptures like you would read a novel or a textbook. The Word of God is alive and full of power. Read it with an expectant heart. Seek the wisdom hidden in every book. When you do this your joy levels will rise. Lady Wisdom brings many blessings to the ones who find her.
May you be one who finds wisdom and enjoys her company. We certainly need the ability to discern the truth from the lies that are being spread every minute in the media. If Truth sets you free, then lies put you in bondage. Let His wisdom guide your heart in every decision you make. You are an overcomer, never think of yourself as a victim. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
