Proverbs 4:11 I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.
12 When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.
13 Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.
As we continue we see that when we learn the wisdom of God we walk in the paths that God leads us, only the right paths. Pray for wisdom of God and walk in that wisdom, and you shall not stumble and fall. You can run the race well and not stumble along the way as long as the wisdom of God directs you. Again we see that we need to hold on to the wisdom we obtain but also to never quit learning more for this is what keeps us going. It tells us we can have life more abundantly if we hold on to what we have gained and continue to obtain more wisdom.
