Call to intelligence

The Daily Wisdom Dose for today is from Proverbs 2:3-5

Yes, if you call to intelligence, and to understanding raise your voice;
If you seek her like silver, and like hidden treasures search her out:
Then will you understand the fear of the LORD; the knowledge of God you will find…

In the beginning of Proverbs there is the verse that fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Today’s can be a revisiting of that. You understand that wisdom has a beginning, and you understand that in any relationship, you have to initiate or participate in it fully to gain the most of it.

The “call” to intelligence, and the “raising your voice” to understanding is prayer. Prayer is the raising of your heart and mind to God, seeking Him out.

Pray, and you will understand the fear of the Lord, and knowledge of God will be bestowed upon you.
