Proverbs 9:10 (NKJV) “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.”
It seems that we always hear about how the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. But we never hear about the last half of this verse.
Knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
Now there’s something that we can all use; understanding!
There is so much truth packed into this short portion of scripture that it could be expounded upon for a very long time.
But for the sake of keeping it short, here’s what we need to know.
As we press in to God and draw near to Him, spending time in His word and learning who He is, we begin to get understanding.
We get understanding of more than just the things of God, but of so many important life-related things.
And when we have understanding of more things, we can make better choices, which leads to a better life.
And, more importantly, we can please God to a higher degree because we know what He wants for our lives.
The knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. So let’s get understanding!
