Proverbs 9
There is a comparison between “The Way of Wisdom” and “The Way of Folly”. Wisdom is hard working, and prepares herself for whatever event is about to happen, being ready in the moment. While folly is loud and clamorous, lazy in sitting around doing nothing productive. Both call out from the high places of places (perhaps the mind) to the simple and him who lacks understanding. Wisdom calls to “forsake foolishness and live” and folly that “stolen water is sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.” Again this is likely to refer to all the other calls of the foolish woman for a sexually adulterous life, claiming that what God says "no" to is actually good, once again trying to make God out to be the liar, when in fact He is Truth.
“That you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; Strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light.”
Colossians 1:9-12
Lord, of what knowledge do I have? Do I posses the understanding to rightly divide Your holy word? I do not feel qualified to make a statement about many, if not all things of Your truth. Teach me Your truth, teach me Your ways and grant me wisdom and understanding that is from You. Teach me to live responsibly that I may rightly honor You and bring You glory. That I too might walk worthy of You my Lord, fully pleasing You.
