Wisdom and understanding

Wisdom and understanding

(Verses 3 to 7 of Chaper 24 in Proverbs are clubbed together).

Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established:(Proverbs 24:3)And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches (Proverbs 24:4).A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength (Proverbs 24:5).

For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety (Proverbs 24:6).

Wisdom is too high for a fool: he openeth not his mouth in the gate (Proverbs 24:7).

By God given wisdom, we should plan to build an organization or a structure. By understanding of the rules and regulations prevalent in the land, we establish the same. Nowadays, children of the world establish organizations by taking recourse merely to the rules and regulations. Before starting a company or an organization, we should seek the counsels of God. Then by knowledge, we fill the organization or the building with all the precious and pleasant riches. We have to select the right people for right jobs in the organization. We have to buy those precious and pleasant items for filling our house or the building after analysing the cost, the durability, the warranty, etc. Knowledge of the market, knowledge of the human resources to be deployed, etc, are very essential.

A man who conceives and executes his plan or vision should be strong in his decision. A man of knowledge understands everything or every tool he uses in his mission. Wisdom is the fountainhead of knowledge. A man of God with godly wisdom can envision any mission in this world. He can seek knowledge very easily for accomplishing his mission.

A nation before venturing into any war to defend itself against it's enemies, should seek wise counsel from godly advisors. The ruler should not venture into any war at all. But if a war is forced upon his land, then he has to defend his land. The counsellors will give him the right kind of advices so that his nation dwells in safety.

Wisdom is not meant for the fools who do not believe in God. The fool will never give any advice in the gate where the enemy enters the land. We need to pray for the safety of our land where we live peacefully so that God may intervene to prevent a war.
