The moral benefits of knowledge wisdom are discussed in an organized fashion: there is a specific order in which God’s wisdom is presented to us. A rhythm is detected from the conditions of receiving wisdom, the results of receiving wisdom from God, the reason for the order in which wisdom is given, and finally the numerous benefits of receiving wisdom from God because of his merciful kindness. .
Accept God’s words, in other words, respect his words and not reject or mock his word.
Keep his commandments in you, they are in your heart. Meditate on them day and night. They affect your thoughts, your speech, and your actions.
Being eager to learn and wanting to acquire wisdom.
Apply your heart to understanding: Pay close attention to your common sense and don’t let your emotions guide you.
Asking for understanding means acknowledging that you don’t know everything and that you need understanding. You know that sometimes you throw your sanity overboard and you need the understanding that
God gives
Looking for understanding as you would look for a treasure. If someone came to you and told you that they hid a treasure and if you find it, you are richer than Bill Gates, how would you find that treasure? Will you have a step-by-step attitude, or will that search consume all your thoughts, all your actions? This is how God wants us to yearn for understanding. Not a frivolous search, but a serious search.
Results of receiving God’s wisdom:The first understanding that will be given to you is the understanding of the fear of the Lord; because without it understanding has no meaning and is often a resource for evil and not for good. People who are good at fooling others are usually very smart. They understand how the minds of their innocent victims work and use that understanding for evil purposes. Therefore, the foundation of sound understanding means understanding God as someone to be worshiped and honored.
Once you have this understanding, continue to know God in a more intimate way. You begin to glimpse the character of him. You have a relationship with Him through His Son Jesus Christ (in whom we find all the treasures of wisdom and understanding). As in any other relationship, the more time you spend with Him, the more He reveals Himself to you. You receive the knowledge of God. Is there any other knowledge that can be compared with this knowledge?
The reasons for the order in which wisdom is bestowed
All wisdom comes from God. All knowledge and understanding comes from the mouth of God; then it makes sense to begin this quest for understanding with the One who is the source of it. It doesn’t make sense to look everywhere else when we’re looking for something except the source. That sounds ridiculous and a waste of time and energy. But that’s exactly what we do when we start looking in the wrong place. After much wasted energy, we may come to realize that our entire search has been a wind chase.
Besides the fact that God is the Source, he is also the Rewarder. He rewards the righteous with victory (found in Christ’s victory over sin and death). Remember that all the wisdom of God is hidden in Christ. He is a shield for those who live blameless. This does not mean that God only protects people who are perfect. Those who have put their trust in the blameless life of the Son of God are rewarded as if they were the blameless ones. He protects the case from him. He protects the footsteps of his faithful
The Benefits of Receiving Wisdom Due to God’s Merciful Kindness:
You will gain a clear understanding of what is right, fair and equitable. Your eyes will be wide open to good and evil. You can more accurately distinguish between the two, especially when the line between good and evil is blurred and even smart people fall for it. Many of His people will tell you that they often feel that something is not right long before they understand why they feel that way. However, they later realize that they had that uneasy feeling for a good reason. The reason you can discern better is because wisdom gets into your heart and puts things under a microscope so you start noticing wrong things that you may not have noticed before. The knowledge you receive will delight you and please your soul.
Discretion will act as a protection around you.
Understanding will protect you from deception and lies.
Wisdom will open your eyes and save you from the wiles of the wicked who speak only perverted words (this includes those religious teachers who twist the word of God to promote their own doctrines). You are protected from people who prefer to do their thing in the dark and hate going out in the light. Everything is discussed behind closed doors. The people they are supposed to serve are left in the dark and deceived with words that sound good. They are protected from those who delight in doing evil and rejoice when evil takes hold and ruins another’s life. He who cries out for wisdom will be protected from those who take a crooked path instead of a straight path, and whose action is cunning and premeditated.

One final note: wisdom is not to be confused with intelligence. If you are well trained to apply your knowledge to your life in a way that will improve your way of life and the way of others, then you are a wise person.
