Ecclesiastes 7:12. The supernatural knowledge of God is far superior to all the knowledge and resources of man. Studying the accumulative knowledge of man will bring you wisdom, but it is only a worldly wisdom that is of use in this world. This wisdom will not prepare you for spiritual things of life (supernatural things outside your five senses) and for the here-after. Money is much like worldly wisdom. It may provide for your natural needs, but money cannot get you into Heaven. Money is also no assurance of peace and joy in this world. It is only when you seek after the supernatural knowledge of God that you will achieve the excellency of knowledge that is needed to address all the issues of life (Ecclesiastes 7:12, “For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it”).

ECCLESIASTES 7 BIBLE SCRIPTURE Ecclesiastes 7:12, “For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.”

2 Corinthians 4:6. The knowledge of God is offered to all of us in the form of Jesus Christ. This new knowledge of God, this mystery, is Jesus Christ who has brought mankind salvation and eternal life . Just as God commanded the light to shine out of the darkness when He created the world; and now God has sent His son as the light of knowledge to the world. Jesus came on this Earth to shine the light of the knowledge of the glory of God into our hearts. This knowledge, this mystery, is our salvation plan for eternal life (II Corinthians 4:6, “For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ”). All we need to do is to surrender completely to Him and let Jesus shine into our hearts. We do this by accepting by faith that Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. By believing that He is our Savior, we will have peace and joy in this world as well as have eternal life.

2 CORINTHIANS BIBLE SCRIPTURE 2 Corinthians 4:6, “For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”

Colossians 2:3. We cannot put God in a box, or pick and choose what attributes of God we want to acknowledge. We must discover God "In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." (Colossians 2:3). If we discover the attributes of God and believe His promises, we can be the partakers of His divine nature (2 Peter 1:4, "Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust").

COLOSSIANS 2 BIBLE SCRIPTURE Colossians 2:3, "In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge."

Isaiah 33:6. The knowledge of God enable us to not be moved by our circumstances. The knowledge of God enables us to act the same way in good times and in times of strife. When we have the supernatural knowledge that God is our salvation we can draw strength from Him where others will despair. People who rely totally on their wealth and money will despair when they have no money. People that rely on their wisdom and wits will despair when they get in a situation that makes no sense with their natural wisdom. The real treasure that can be relied on at all times is to have a relationship with God (Isaiah 33:6, “And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord is his treasure”). A relationship where we are totally surrender to God and accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior.

ISAIAH 33 BIBLE SCRIPTURE Isaiah 33:6, “And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord is his treasure.”
