Become A Passionate Treasure Hunter For Good Knowledge & Information (an excerpt from a book by Alfred)
Proverbs 25:2 KJV
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
The Bible tells us it is the honour of kings to search out a matter; which means to discover knowledge, uncover truths, to uncover mysteries.
If you become a treasure hunter for knowledge you are doing something that brings honour to kings, therefore the honor of a king; the honor that is meant for kings only will be poured upon you.
What is a king without honour? A king without honour is a Clown… a Joke.
When you take away honour from a king all you have is a joke, which means it is the King's honor that makes him a king. Beyond externalities like the Crown, a Throne, or a Kingdom; it is the things you can't see & touch or put in a tangible form which can be carried or stolen by thieves like a king's honor that makes the king a King. It is not enough for a king to be a king in title alone; the king must be king on the inside and from the inside.
Do you want to be a king in life? Then do what makes a king a king. Do what gives you a king's honour; become a passionate treasure hunter for knowledge, wisdom and understanding.
Wisdom is truly the greatest treasure. Wisdom is a treasure more precious than Silver and Gold.
Proverbs 16:16 AMP
How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is to be chosen above silver.
