If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
~James 1:5
To the man who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
~Ecclesiastes 2:26 (NIV)
I will praise the Lord, who counsels me;
even at night my heart instructs me.
~Psalm 16:7 (NIV)
Then you will understand the fear of the Lord
and find the knowledge of God.
For the Lord gives wisdom,
and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.
~Proverbs 2:5-6 (NIV)
Surely you desire truth in the inner parts;
you teach me wisdom
in the inmost place.
~Psalm 51:6 (NIV)
And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
~1 John 5:20
