Show Notes

Wisdom is what makes winners in life in every arena. This is why the writer of the book of Proverbs, Solomon, regarded as the wisest man, says that his father King David taught him the following words: “Get wisdom, get understanding, forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth. Wisdom is the principal thing, therefore get wisdom, and with all your getting, get understanding.” (Proverbs 4: 4-7) We explore the difference between wisdom and knowledge. We identify 10 people the Bible describes as wise. And we list 10 ways to become wise. Scriptures referenced include Proverbs 4:7; Proverbs 1:7; 1 Corinthians 1:30; Proverbs 3:13-18; Acts 7:10, 20, 22; Proverbs 1:5; Deuteronomy 34:9; Joshua 24:15; 2 Samuel 23; 1 Samuel 25:3; Daniel 5:10; Acts 6:3; 2 Peter 2:15; Luke 2:40, 52; Colossians 2:3; Proverbs 16:16; Lamentations 3:25 and Proverbs 4:5.
