The Knowledge Of God Is Better Than All The Wealth Of This World

As Christians, one of the many things God wants us to accomplish as we become rescued through the blood of His Son Jesus will be to begin to grow in His awareness and style.

The reason why God wants us to go pursuing His knowledge is simply because we can't spiritually grow in Him unless of course we have the knowledge in us that will trigger this religious growth to occur from the beginning. This is why God sets such a high value about the search for His knowledge for us, because without it, we will never be able to spiritually mature in the ways that He'll want us to.

Then if you think about the actual verses from the Bible on God wanting us to nurture in His knowledge, you will find God creating several remarkable, intense phrases. As you will see while going over several of the verses I will include below, God is plainly telling us that going after His knowledge for our lives beats seeking after all the material riches of this world.

It's because His knowledge doesn't only induce us to spiritually mature in Him, but it will also carry over with us in to the next life at the same time. But all the riches and material assets we're going to end up with won't be with us once we cross over. Everything will be left to decay and even expire right with our physical bodies when it is all said and done. Put simply, no suitcases should be loaded on your death bed.

Consequently, each Christian has to manage to get their goals set directly with the Lord. Seek after His knowledge for your lives, then everything else you need to be able to work in the life will be presented to you by the Lord.

Here are 7 very deep passages, each proving us that seeking after the knowledge of God for our lives is better than all the material riches this world can offer. Today more than ever before all Christians must ground on these types of passages, since we have so much in the world of material riches alluring us to desire to pursue it.

1. 'Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gains understanding; for her proceeds are better than the profits of silver, and her gain than fine gold. She is more precious than rubies, and all the things you may desire cannot compare with her. Length of days is in her right hand, in her left hand riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, and happy are all who retain her.' (Proverbs 3:13)

2. 'How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.' (Proverbs 16:16)

3. 'There is gold and a multitude of rubies, but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.' (Proverbs 20:15)

4. ' but the excellence of knowledge is that wisdom gives life to those who have it.' (Ecclesiastes 7:12)

5. 'Understanding is a wellspring of life to him who has it.' (Proverbs 16:22)

6. 'Through wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches.' (Proverbs 24:3)

7. 'Wisdom strengthens the wise more than ten rulers of the city.' (Ecclesiastes 7:19)

The very first 2 passages previously mentioned simply state it all when it reveals that wisdom and understanding can beat all the gains of gold and silver.
