“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.”
—Proverbs 9:10 (ESV)
Proverbs for a Hungry Soul, by D. L. Zimmermann, is a thorough, in-depth study on obtaining wisdom, including the basic steps on how to gain wisdom by strengthening your relationship with God. The information is presented in an easy to- understand manner, highlighting biblical stories and presenting many Bible verses in the Old Testament and New Testament on every topic that King Solomon talks about in the book of Proverbs.
Zimmermann introduces God’s plan for obtaining wisdom as a roadmap to be consulted and read as a manual to answer all of life’s difficult questions for yourself, your loved ones, or for a Bible study. This book is the key to successful Kingdom living because the goal throughout is to explain the true meaning of the God’s plan for our lives. That is gained by insight into the stories of important biblical figures, such as Solomon, King David, Noah, Abraham, Samson, Jesus and many more.
King Solomon prayed for wisdom and was the wisest and richest man who ever lived, yet lost it all by the end of his life. We all have made mistakes, but God doesn’t wasn’t us to be overwhelmed with guilt and regret; rather, he wants us to learn from them. God’s plan is amplified for obtaining wisdom, life, happiness, blessings, success, love, marriage, children, jobs, wealth, and prosperity on earth and in heaven; these things are important aspects of overcoming the mistakes we have already made to victory we will achieve in our future!
