These verses tell us that we need to be fully aware of God and in fellowship with God.
The knowledge of Proverbs consists of more than information, facts, and sense data. It is knowledge that begins with the fear of the Lord and is therefore godly knowledge that always includes Him as the primary factor. Because of its divine source, it comes with understanding implicit in it.
Seek out knowledge. Cherish it as a valued possession when you have found it. Study God's Word and listen to the Holy Spirit. Believe God's prophets. Understand that these are the true sources of godly knowledge. Be prudent in how you give our knowledge. Do not stray from the words of knowledge. Share your knowledge with restraint, and do not let it become a source of pride.
And most important, seek Gods direction, and listen to
His voice. To not be swayed by anyone. Always follow the message that God
gives to you, know matter whom may agree and not agree with you.
For when you listen and follow God's voice, you will
never go wrong. For God will direct your steps, when you acknowledge Him.
