PRAY FOR UNDERSTANDING

PRAY FOR UNDERSTANDING

Proverbs 4:7 

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

Proverbs 3:13 

Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

Acts 7:22 

And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.

1 Corinthians 1:19-21 

For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 

For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence. But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

There is a big difference between wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. You can have wisdom in all aspects of life and topics. You can know a word but not understand the meaning.  With wisdom or knowledge, get understanding also. Just because you are wise does not mean you understand. People get their wisdom and knowledge from books and other people's explanations. Understanding comes from within. Understanding is from God. So many people can quote The Bible, Satan does, but does not understand what is being said. You understand The Bible through the power of The Holy Spirit; He will guide and teach you into all Truth. Get wisdom and knowledge; 

PRAY FOR UNDERSTANDING ALSO. 

(Wisdom is the quality of having a reasonable judgment based on knowledge. It is popularly known as the ability to discern. If knowledge is power, wisdom is your choice to use or apply that power. Understanding is the ability to understand one's knowledge and choices.) Copied From Google research, I don't know who wrote it.
