God is greater than we are. Therefore, we must be humble. The wise person respects God (Proverbs 1:7). God protects him and helps him.

Some wise people are not wealthy (Proverbs 19:1). But their wisdom is more valuable than money (Proverbs 8:10-11). Really, they are wealthy, because God will give great wealth to them in heaven. (See Revelation 21:3-4; Revelation 21:18-21 and Isaiah 55:2. See also Mark 10:29-20.)

Similarly, other people might not give honour to wise people (Matthew 5:11-12). But God gives honour to them (John 12:26).
