These are the steps to discovering and understanding the knowledge of God:
1. Receive my words: You must be teachable.
2. Hide my commandments with thee: You must accept the Word and integrate it into your life and spirit. Do not try to change the Word to agree with your way of living.
3. Incline thine ear unto wisdom: Really listen to what God is saying to you through His Word. Listening requires changes in living where indicated.
4. Apply thine heart to understanding: Apply yourself diligently to understanding (interpreting) the Word.
5. Seek her as silver and search for her as for hid treasures: If someone told you there was a hidden treasure in property you own, what would you do? You would start digging. You would conduct a systematic search until you found the treasure. It would become a priority of your life.
When you make God's Word a priority and begin to systematically search for His wisdom, you will find it. But it must become a priority of life. You must approach it with as much excitement and dedication as if you were searching for treasure.
If you follow these guidelines and search for the meat of God`s Word, these are the results:
