Part 2 - The Roadmap to Wisdom
How wisdom is passed from parents, gained by children, and results in wise living
parents must take the role seriously, and be persistent in teaching their kids
children must respect the words of their parents, and learn to seek wisdom from God
the right attitude will lead the child to God who will give wisdom
godly wisdom is the fear of the Lord and separation from evil

what are the benefits/rewards of wisdom

Happiness
happiness is the result of wise living
NOT the goal of life - as the world wants us to think
because the proceeds (ROI) of wisdom is higher in value that all material wealth
Happiness is not a “short-time” experience
true happiness is a state/condition that comes as a result of wise living
Length of Days
long life is not a result of good food eating habit!
long life is the reward of godly wisdom
Riches and honor
the world’s view to becoming rich
you must be aggressive
you must take advantage of people’s weakness
cheating
God’s view
Ways of pleasantness and peace
Wisdom is a tree of life
by God’s wisdom, the earth was formed and it abides forever
the works of the hands that are guided by wisdom will live on for generations!
A lifetime of security
