Psalms 119:97-100 "How I love Your instruction! It is my meditation all day long. Your commands make me wiser than my enemies, for they are always with me. I have more insight than all my teachers because Your decrees are my meditation. I understand more than the elders because I obey Your precepts."
How would you like to be wiser than those whom dislike you; to have more insight than all of those who teach you, and have a greater understanding than the elders of your church? All of this is possible if you will simply obey and meditate upon scripture all day long.
Wisdom is moral goodness in character, thought and actions. Understanding is the ability to separate and discern ideas. Insight is intelligence. So, through meditating on scripture alone, you and I can have the ability to separate and discern ideas, understand those ideas, and have those ideas become such a part of us that they change our character to the degree that we become morally good and wise.
How many other things do you meditate upon during the day? Do those things give you insight and understanding to the degree that you surpass all those around you in wisdom?
