Growing in Wisdom



Luke 2:52
And Jesus kept increasing in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and men.

MH says:

Young people, as they grow in stature, should grow in wisdom, and then, as they grow in wisdom, they will grow in favour with God and man.

Are you looking for acceptance? Grow in wisdom. The benefits are endless when you increase your wisdom. Not only will you enjoy blessings untold, but your neighbor will benefit as well.

Your neighbor will benefit because you will have apt, timely words to encourage them, reprove them, or guide them. (Prov. 12:26)

You will benefit, because as God uses your wisdom in words and deeds, you will find satisfaction and enjoy good.
From the fruit of a man's mouth he enjoys good. (Proverbs 13:2). A man will be satisfied with good by the fruit of his words and the deeds of man's hands will return to him.. (Proverbs 12:14)

But that's not all.
Having wisdom stored up in your heart prevents pain and punishment. Proverbs 13:14 The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life, to turn aside from the snares of death. Snares and landmines abound. But wisdom, is your guide out of them all.

The only way, my beloveds, to experience God's best and to walk in holiness is by pursuing, studying, and meditating on His Word, day and night. It will keep you from sin.
Ps 119:9-11
How can a young man keep his way pure? By keeping it according to Your word. With all my heart I have sought You; Do no let me ander from Your commandments. Your word I have treasured in my heart That I may not sin against You.

When you stay in the Word and gather wisdom, you will escape harmful sin patterns. When you escape harmful sin patterns, you will grow in favor with God and man! Work out your spiritual muscles of wisdom and make them bigger!
