Psalm 119:66 says, “Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments.” This prayer from the psalmist reflects a deep desire for both wisdom and understanding that comes from a relationship with God. Good judgment and knowledge are essential in living out God's commands. Without them, we can easily make poor decisions or misunderstand God's will. The psalmist acknowledges that belief in God’s commandments must be accompanied by a pursuit of deeper understanding. It is not enough to simply believe; we must ask God to teach us how to apply His Word wisely in our lives. As we grow in knowledge and judgment, we are better equipped to navigate life’s challenges and fulfill God’s purpose for us.
James 3:17
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
Proverbs 18:15
The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
Ecclesiastes 10:2
A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left.
Proverbs 9:10
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
