In chapter two of Proverbs, Solomon teaches that seeking wisdom brings understanding of the Fear of the Lord (vs. 5). What an opportunity! By learning, understanding and seeking God through meditation, we know Him better! Scholarship has become ignored in Christian's lives, yet the wisest man to ever live, Solomon, tells his son to seek wisdom like silver and treasure.
Further, when you know wisdom, discretion will watch over you, understanding will guard you (vs. 11). Wisdom, which leads to understanding of God's righteousness, is also a protective measure, a shield.
