SEEK KNOWLEDGE

Proverbs 18:15 “The heart of the prudent acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.”

Knowledge is a vital force that determines how far a person goes in life. It breaks the limitations that ignorance places on individuals. 

You see, the absence of knowledge can make life frustrating, stagnant, and directionless. That is why the Word of God places strong emphasis on acquiring knowledge.

As a Christian, you must know the truth that pertain to your salvation. You must understand the rights, responsibilities, and privileges that come with your life in Christ. A lack of knowledge on these, can make you ineffective in life. Know that you cannot function confidently in what you do not understand.

Be passionate about seeking knowledge. Proverbs 18:15 says “The mind of the prudent [always] acquires knowledge, And the ear of the wise [always] seeks knowledge.” Seek knowledge on every sphere of your life. It will make you successful in your endeavors. Seek knowledge concerning your spiritual life, your career, your education, your marriage, relationships, and your finances. Seeking knowledge requires time, discipline, and sacrifice, but the rewards of knowledge are refreshing and enduring.

Be deliberate when it comes to learning. Study God’s word, study quality and edifying materials. Ask questions, don’t live with assumptions, when there is an opportunity to know truth and fact.

Read: Proverbs 1:5 “A wise man will hear and increase learning, and a man of understanding will attain wise counsel.”

Prayer: Lord, give me a disciplined heart that diligently seeks knowledge and walks in wisdom every day. Amen.
