Understanding

[cizz]

“The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.”- Psalm 119:130

Pro 2:6       For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth [cometh] knowledge and understanding.

Pro 2:11     Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:

Pro 3:4     So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

Pro 3:5     Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Pro 3:13     Happy [is] the man [that] findeth wisdom, and the man [that] getteth understanding.

Pro 4:7     Wisdom [is] the principal thing; [therefore] get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

Mar 12:33     And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love [his] neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

Luk 24:45     Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,

Phl 4:7     And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Col 1:9     For this cause we also, since the day we heard [it], do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

Col 2:2     That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;

2Ti 2:7     Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.

Understanding comes from intimacy with God. It is likened to silver in the bible. Wisdom is likened as gold.

Blessings brother,   

You have posted a word that sticks out for me, "intimacy"...could you share more of what that means? What I mean when I say a word sticks out, I question my own understanding of what it means and I am not so sure I understand what this word means

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom:
and the knowledge of the holy is understanding."  (Prov. 9:10)

Knowing holiness is knowing God's love. God's love is holiness...and holiness is God's love. When we walk in holiness, we are walking and abiding in His love. When we walk in His love we are walking in His holiness.

16 How much better to get wisdom than gold,
       to choose understanding rather than silver!

But wisdom is as gold. Wisdom ACTS on a given understanding. Wisdom returns the love to God and to others that one has received. Understanding does not necessarily provide a path for love to flow through. But wisdom does!

In my studies I have seen the following corrolations

Wisdom: gold: love

Understanding: silver: Faith

Knowledge: brass or precious stones: Hope
