God will give you knowledge and understanding

“From his mouth come knowledge and understanding.” Proverbs 2:6 NIV

Bill Gates predicted, “There will be ‘two societies’ in the future: high-paid knowledge workers and low-paid service workers.” The saying “knowledge is power” is true. And it’s even more dynamic in the spiritual realm. The more you know about God, the more confident you’ll be. Knowledge of God’s Word can give clarity to the puzzling issues of life. When a certain religious sect tried to pull Jesus into one of their debates on a particular issue, He replied, “Your mistake is that you don’t know the scriptures, and you don’t know the power of God” (Matthew 22:29 NLT). There are some truths you need to settle in your heart and let them bring peace to your spirit. For example, no one else can thwart God’s purpose for your life. “The Lord Almighty has purposed, and who can thwart him? His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?” (Isaiah 14:27 NIV). You also need to settle in your mind that no matter what happens, things are working out for your good. Therefore, you can resist anxiety and worry. “We know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose” (Romans 8:28 NKJV). Daniel reminded us that God “gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding. He reveals deep and secret things; He knows what is in the darkness, and light dwells with Him” (Daniel 2:21-22 NKJV). The “light” you need belongs to God. And you never have to feel insecure regarding any aspect of your knowledge when you know Him, for He knows everything.
