Proverbs 2:6
Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
All true wisdom, knowledge, and understanding flow from the Lord alone.
The Lord is the ultimate source of wisdom—it comes from His mouth as He speaks to us through Scripture, His Spirit, and godly counsel. Out of His mouth come knowledge and understanding, meaning that when we seek divine guidance, we're going directly to the wellspring of all wisdom. Every other source is merely a reflection or application of what originates with God.
