Proverbs 18:15
Proverbs 18:15
The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
Proverbs 18:15 says, "The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge." Wisdom is not passive; it requires an active pursuit of knowledge and understanding. The heart of the prudent is inclined toward wisdom, seeking to learn and grow in insight. This verse highlights the value of seeking knowledge and understanding, particularly through God’s Word. As we grow in wisdom, we become better equipped to navigate life’s challenges. Wisdom opens our eyes to the truths of Scripture and helps us apply those truths to our daily lives. The pursuit of knowledge is not just about accumulating facts but about growing in our relationship with God and aligning our lives with His will.
Proverbs 9:10
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
Matthew 10:16
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
Philippians 1:9
And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment.
Proverbs 12:15
The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
