The Principal Thing

The Principal Thing

Proverbs 4:7 states “Wisdom is the principal thing…”

The phrase; principal thing means: the first in place, time, order or rank, as well as meaning, beginnings and/or chief. According to most Christians, there are many principal subject matters: faith, love, sacrifice, obedience and on and on. But in God’s word, He says the principal thing is wisdom. In James 1:5, God also tells us that if we lack wisdom to ask Him for it and He will give wisdom liberally (a lot). God puts this much emphasis on wisdom and he dishes it out generously if we ask. Is it possible we could be missing out on something incredible, just because we simply failed to ask?
