"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all those who do His commandments. His praise endures forever" - Psalm 111:10 "By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches and honor and life." - Proverbs 22:4 Where does true wisdom come from? Human wisdom is temporary, shifting with cultures, generations, and opinions. But Godly wisdom is solid as a rock, and those who walk in it never regret the decisions shaped by His truth. Scripture teaches that Godly wisdom begins with the fear of the Lord. It is a humble posture of the heart that recognizes His sovereignty, submits to His authority, and seeks His counsel above all earthly voices. “By humility and the fear of the Lord are riches and honor and life” (Proverbs 22:4). This wisdom does not fade, and it does not fail. Let us therefore seek the wisdom that comes from God alone. Let us fear Him who gave us life, walk humbly before Him, and pursue the understanding that leads to righteousness, honor, and eternal life. Praise the Lord!
