Scripture: Proverbs 9:10
Topic: wisdom

Explore Proverbs 9:10, emphasizing that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and understanding comes from knowing God.

Introduction

Good morning, family! I hope this day finds you all in good spirits and ready to delve into the Word of God. Today, we're going to get deep into the wisdom of Proverbs 9:10, a special verse that talks about the source, the benefits, and the path to true wisdom.

This verse reads,

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding."

Now, I don't know about you, but that sounds like a roadmap to wisdom to me!

In our journey today, we'll be guided by some wise words from Ray Comfort. He once said, "When men don't fear God, they give themselves to evil." However harsh this may sound, today we’re going to be talking about exactly this.

Let's bow our heads in prayer.

Dear Heavenly Father, we thank you for bringing us together today in fellowship and love. We ask that you open our hearts and minds to your Word as we explore the depths of wisdom you have laid out for us in Proverbs. Help us to grasp and apply this wisdom in our daily lives. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Now, let's dive into the word and see what God has in store for us today!

The Source

The source of true wisdom, as stated in Proverbs 9:10, is the fear of the Lord. This is not the kind of fear that makes us want to run and hide, but rather a deep reverence and awe for the Almighty. It is a recognition of His majesty, His power, and His holiness. This fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom because it is the starting point of our relationship with God. It is the moment we realize that we are not the center of the universe, but rather, God is. It is the moment we understand that our wisdom is limited, but God's wisdom is infinite.

A continuous process: It is a daily surrender of our will to God's will. It is a daily decision to seek God's wisdom over our own. It is a daily commitment to live in obedience to God's commandments. This fear of the Lord is not a burden, but a blessing. It is not a restriction, but a liberation. It is not a punishment, but a privilege.
