Wisdom and Wealth from the Scriptures

Choose my (wisdom) instruction instead of silver, knowledge rather than choice gold,   for wisdom is more precious than rubies, and nothing you desire can compare with her.
I (wisdom) love those who love me, and those who seek me find me. With me (wisdom) are riches and honor, enduring wealth and prosperity.
I (wisdom) walk in the way of righteousness, along the paths of justice, bestowing a rich inheritance on those who love me and making their treasuries full.
For those who find me (wisdom) find life and receive favor from the Lord
These are a few passages from Proverbs 8 that extol the virtue of wisdom and it is available to all who seek her. That’s right… everyone can be wise.
In addition, wisdom has its benefits or blessings. Wisdom can make you rich. The text says that.
Seeking after riches will not necessarily make you rich but seeking after wisdom will.
It would be a mistake to try to become wise so that you can become rich. All one’s efforts should be to become wise and don’t worry about wealth at all. It will find you on it’s own.
