Yesterday’s topic was Seek Wisdom from Proverbs 2.1-4.  Today is Find Wisdom, the expected results of having God’s knowledge, from verses 5 and 9-12.  And tomorrow is about Wisdom’s Source, where verses 6-8 make it clear that even with all our seeking, it is God who controls the understanding.

When you are attentive to wisdom, call out for insight and treasure understanding as suggested in verses 1-4, then you will

• Understand the fear of the LORD
• Find the knowledge of God
• Understand righteousness
• Understand  justice
• Understand equity
• Understand every good path

And

• Wisdom will come into your heart
• Knowledge will be pleasant to your soul
• Discretion will watch over you
• Understanding will guard you
• Understanding will deliver you from the way of evil
• Understanding will deliver you from men of perverted speech.

Notice that the knowledge of God is “pleasant” to your soul and understanding provides discernment when listening to men.
