These are some of the things to do to understand the fear of the Lord and to find the knowledge of God (Proverbs 2 vs 3-4):
Do: Receive God's words.
Result: Believe what you read as for what it says and expect it to take authority.
Do: Hide his commandments with you.
Result: Memorize, keep them tucked away in private places.
Do: Incline your ear to wisdom.
Result: When you hear wise things focus your attention on them, tilt the head, hear more clearly.
Do: Apply your heart to understanding.
Result: Work for understanding, spend time at it, “stick to it”.
Do: Cry after knowledge.
Result: Call out for knowledge, arrest knowledge's attention by calling after her in public. Visibly point out the facts, be a witness.
Do: Lift up your voice for understanding.
Result: In public make a plea for the true relationship among ideas, things, situations. Cause true things to be presented in the courtroom.
Do: Seek wisdom as silver.
Result: Search for wisdom, it is of utmost value.
Do: Search for her as hid treasures.
Result: Search by overturning seemingly unrelated things, perhaps she may be behind them.
Remember: The right way is obvious, the obvious is the right way.
