Get wisdom above all else. She is more precious than gold (Prov 3:13-15).
Satan wants you to be wise (Gen 3:5-6). Don’t forget this. He offers a semi-divine wisdom.
Just enough to have one-up on others.
Just enough to damn one to hell.
Just enough to make you think you are getting the real deal.
The writer of Proverbs calls such wisdom folly. Paul calls her that too (1 Cor 3:19). She is not wisdom at all. Oh, she is worldly wisdom. She extends a great invitation (Prov 9:16), offering much sweetness and pleasure (Prov 9:17). For a season, that is. Like this world, she is passing away.
God wants you to be wise. He alone is able to give true wisdom (Prov 2:6). His wisdom also offers pleasure, but an eternal-type (Prov 2:10). Nothing we desire can compare with her (Prov 3:15).
There is a way to wisdom that leads only to death. It is a foolish path (Prov 26:12). Whose way to wisdom will you chose?
