Proverbs 3:5-12 has three conditions before getting to the promise of God directing our paths:
1) Trust in the Lord with all your heart.
2) Lean not to your own understanding.
3) In all of your ways acknowledge Him...
and He shall direct your paths.
We're also told that following God's way will be health to our flesh and strength to our bones.
What are the benefits? Proverbs 3:13-26
1) Happy is the person who finds wisdom. Happiness doesn't come from "stuff."
2) Length of day and long life.
3) Riches and honor.
With Daniel, we see the wisdom of God in action. When the king ordered all the wise men to be put to death, Daniel made a request. He'd developed a trust based on wisdom with Arioch. The man told him what was happening, and Daniel found favor with him. One thing we see here: Wisdom makes a request. Foolishness makes a demand.
