Wisdom is a skill in living that begins with fearing God, then progresses to guarding your mind, choosing your companions, controlling your body, monitoring your words, pursuing your work, managing your money, and loving your neighbor. Very simple. But that’s it. And when you’ve done that, you’ve learned wisdom. It’s vital to be taught wisdom. For example, as a father, if I fail to teach my son to fear God, the devil will teach him to hate God. If I fail to teach my son to guard his mind, the devil will teach him to have an open mind. If I fail to teach my son to obey his parents, the devil will teach him to rebel and break his parents’ hearts. If I fail to teach my son to select his companions carefully, the devil will choose them for him. If I fail to teach my son to control his body, the devil will gladly teach him to give it completely over to his lusts. If I fail to teach my children to enjoy speech that is honorable to God, the devil will fill their mouths with filth. If I fail to teach my children to pursue their work, the devil will make them lazy. If I fail to teach them to manage their money, the devil will teach them to waste it on riotous living. If I fail to teach them to love their neighbor, the devil will gladly teach them to love only themselves. And the only reason I can pass any of this wisdom on to my children is because God has graciously made it all available in the Bible.

Proverbs 4:5 - Acquire Wisdom!
Our Satan Conqueror
Christ of God eternal, the second person of the Trinity, the holy sinless one whom angels adored, became less than angels to suffer and die to be my substitute and to be my trailblazer to heaven in God's glory. And He even stooped to call me brother, fellow son of God, and joint heir; and He did it without shame, because He had made me holy in His own holiness. That's why He's our substitute, our salvation captain, and our sanctifier. But He is also, according to verse 14, our Satan conqueror: "Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood"—that is, the children picked up from verse 13, we believers, human beings; we partake of flesh and blood; we're fleshly, human beings—"He also Himself likewise took part of the same"—He became what we are—"that through death He might destroy him that had power of death, that is, the devil." Now, the one thing that Satan has over man is death. Satan knows that the wages of sin is death. And if he can keep a man living in sin until he dies, he's got him forever. Therefore, Satan's great power is death, and somebody had to destroy that power. Somebody had to shatter death because Satan knew that if he could hold on, and still knows if he can hold on to men until they die, that God can't get them. For God has designed salvation to be in a man's lifetime, not after. And so Satan uses the power of death. He endeavors to trap men and keep men until they die, and then God can't touch them. This is Satan's hold on men. They couldn't escape death; they couldn't escape the inevitable penalty of sin and Satan knew it. So if Satan could just hold men there, God couldn't get them. Now, somebody had to break this power, and it had to be a man. Some man had to conquer death and destroy Satan's weapon, and that's exactly what Jesus did. You see, it says in verse 14 that through death He did it. In other words, in order to destroy death, a man would have to die and rise again and leave the trail open for others to die and rise again, and that's exactly what Jesus did. He came out of that grave, He exploded out of that shackle of death, and then He said, "Because I live"—what?—"You shall live also." Listen, my friend, Jesus died and rose, and thus He destroyed Satan's power of death, and He left a way open for you. He became a man to die as a man and have a man's victory over the grave. But He had to be God at the same time to have that victory. He shattered death's grip, and so we say, "O death, where is thy sting? Grave, where is thy victory?" There's no longer victory in death. Why? Because death is just a doorway that leads from this world into God's presence for those who love Him. We don't ever experience death because Christ shattered it. He came to die to destroy death so that you might live. Beloved, through His death, He became our substitute, our salvation captain, our sanctifier, and our Satan conqueror. Oh, what a Savior we have in Jesus! Repent and believe! GTY.org (1204) – Why Was Jesus Born?
