Money versus knowledge

What do you want, money or knowledge? If someone asked you that question, what would you answer? We would probably consider it for a while, and in the end we would decide one or another.

In the Bible we can read in Proverbs 20:15 „There is gold and a multitude of rubies; but the lips of knowledge are a rare jewel.

There is a lot of money in the world, there are many rich people and there are poor people. But, wise people with knowledge, they are not to be found everywhere. God wants to bless us physically so we have what we need for our everyday life, but it is just as important to long for knowledge and wisdom from God. A good word at the right time can bring healing to people around us. The right knowledge can bring healing and help into a troublesome situation where money could never do so.

Godly wisdom cannot be studied at a university, but if you combine reading the Bible, reading literature, listening to teaching, praying and similar activities with the fear of God, if will for sure bring forth fruit in the right time.
