Proverbs 1:7 says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: But fools despise wisdom and instruction.”
This verse reminds us that true wisdom starts with a reverential fear of the Lord. This fear is not about being scared of God but having a deep respect and awe for His guidance and teachings. Those who disregard wisdom and correction show their folly. Let us cultivate a heart that honors God, embraces His wisdom, and learns from His instructions, for in doing so, we walk on the path of proper understanding and knowledge.
