*WISDOM IS YOURS WHEN YOU FEAR HIM* We see in Proverbs 1:7, its written that “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise WISDOM and instruction.” This verse gives us some added insight with its antithetical parallelism, there is a sharp contrast between the WISE LIFE and the FOOLISH LIFE. A wise person fears,reverences, obeys his CREATOR; but a fool despises the MASTERS instruction and cannot be told what to do. The WISE person is WISE because he has started at the starting PLACE; the fool has NO foundation on which to build WISDOM. Romans 1:21–22 speaks of those who “neither glorified HIM as CREATOR nor gave thanks to HIM, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools.” This is a description of people who try to obtain WISDOM while ignoring the HOLY ONE...it cannot be done for the simple reason that YAHWEH is the source of WISDOM. The connection between the FEAR of YAHWEH and WISDOM means we cannot possess WISDOM if we recreate the HOLY ONE in our own image. Too many people want to “tame” the HOLY ONE into a non-threatening nobody. But, if we redefine the CREATOR as a god that makes us feel comfortable, a permissive “friend” who exists simply to bless us and give us what we want, we will not fear HIM in the way HE DESERVES to be FEARED. The HOLY ONE is far GREATER than that, and the FEAR of HIS MAJESTY begins when we see HIM in HIS MAJESTY and POWER (Revelation 4:11; Job 42:1–2) HE shows Job (and us) a glimpse of HIS POWER in Job 38—41 when HE describes HIS absolute sovereignty over everything. When the reality of HIS true nature has caused us to fall down in worship, we are then in the right position to gain WISDOM. WISDOM is merely seeing LIFE from YAHWEHS perspective and responding accordingly. WISDOM is a PRIORITY, and we are told to seek it above all else (Proverbs 3:13; 16:16). Proverbs is known as the wisdom book, and the entire second chapter gives a detailed explanation of the value of gaining wisdom. LOVE YOU all Brothers and Sisters! SHALOM!
