Proverbs 8:17
I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently will find me.
This verse offers a powerful promise for those who pursue godly wisdom. God does not hide His wisdom from those whose hearts earnestly seek truth and understanding. Instead, His Spirit draws near, ready to guide, teach, and bless those who love His Word more than the fleeting pleasures of the world.
To love wisdom is to desire God’s ways above human reasoning. It means aligning our choices, thoughts, and actions with His divine counsel rather than acting on impulse or self-interest. The diligent seeker does not grow weary; instead, they press on in faith, trusting that God will reveal His will in due time.
When we pursue godly wisdom with love and persistence, we experience peace, clarity, and sound judgment. It steers us away from deception and gives light to our paths. Every day becomes an opportunity to listen—to the whisper of the Spirit, the counsel of Scripture, and the lessons hidden within our experiences. So, let us seek wisdom diligently, especially in God’s Word. For when we find wisdom, we find life and obtain favour from the Lord (Proverbs 8:35).
Prayer: Dear God, thank You for freely giving us the gift of wisdom and understanding through Your Word. Please help us walk in Your statutes and honour You in everything we do. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
