Eagles Wing Podcast – Proverbs 8: The Call of Wisdom
Hosted by Deuce Brandt

In this episode of the Eagles Wing Podcast, hosted by Deuce Brandt, we explore the powerful message found in Book of Proverbs Chapter 8 from the Amplified Bible. This chapter presents wisdom as something living, calling out to humanity and inviting everyone to pursue truth, understanding, and righteous living.

Proverbs 8 begins with wisdom crying out in public places—at the gates, crossroads, and entrances of the city—calling people to listen and gain understanding. Wisdom invites those who are simple or inexperienced to learn prudence, and challenges the arrogant to develop an understanding heart. The message is clear: wisdom is available to anyone willing to listen and receive instruction. 

Proverbs 8

A major theme in this chapter is the value of wisdom over wealth. Wisdom declares that instruction is far more valuable than silver, gold, rubies, or anything people desire. True riches are found not in material possessions but in living according to truth, righteousness, and reverence for God. 

Proverbs 8

The chapter also teaches that the fear of the Lord means rejecting evil—including pride, arrogance, corrupt speech, and wicked behavior. Wisdom brings counsel, sound judgment, understanding, and strength. It is through wisdom that leaders rule justly and that societies function with justice and order.

Another key point in Proverbs 8 is the eternal nature of wisdom. Wisdom describes being present before the creation of the earth, before the oceans, mountains, and skies were formed. Wisdom was there as God established the foundations of the world and rejoiced in His creation. 

Proverbs 8

In this episode of the Eagles Wing Podcast, hosted by Deuce Brandt, we also explore the deeper spiritual meaning behind this passage. Many believers see strong parallels between the description of eternal wisdom and the identity of Jesus Christ—the eternal Word described in Gospel of John Chapter 1. The idea presented is that wisdom is not just a concept but may represent the living presence of the Son of God, who existed with God from the beginning.

The chapter closes with a powerful promise and warning: those who seek wisdom diligently will find life and favor with the Lord, but those who reject wisdom harm themselves. Choosing wisdom leads to life, while rejecting it leads toward destruction.

This episode of the Eagles Wing Podcast, hosted by Deuce Brandt, encourages listeners to seek wisdom daily, listen carefully to instruction, and pursue a life aligned with truth and righteousness.

Hello and welcome to the Eagle's Wing Podcast. This is your host, Deuce Brandt. Today we are in Proverbs chapter 8 in the Amplified Bible. Does not skillful and godly wisdom cry out and understanding raise her voice in contrast to the loose woman? On the top of the heights beside the way, where the paths meet stands wisdom, skillful and godly. At the gates at the entrance of the town, at the coming in, at the door she cries out. To you, O men, I call, and my voice is directed to the sons of men. O you simple and thoughtless ones, understand prudence, you self confident fools, be of an understanding heart. Hear, for I will speak excellent and princely things, and the opening of my lips shall be for right things. For my mouth shall utter truth, and wrongdoings in detestable and loathsome to my lips. All the words of my mouth are righteous, upright and in right standing with God. There is nothing contrary to truth or crooked in them. They are all plain to him who understands and opens his heart, and right to those who find knowledge and live by it. Receive my instruction in preference to striving for silver and knowledge rather than for choice gold. To s for skillful and godly wisdom is better than rubies or pearls, and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it. I wisdom from God make prudence my dwelling, and I find out knowledge and discretion. The reverent fear and worship of the Lord includes the hatred of evil, pride, arrogance, the evil way, and perverted and twisted speech I hate. I have counsel and sound knowledge, I have understanding, I have might and power. By me kings reign and rulers decree justice. By me princes rule, and nobles even all the judges and governors of the earth. I love those who love me, and those who seek me early and diligently shall find me. Riches and honor are with me, enduring wealth and righteousness, uprightness in every area and relation, and right standing with God. My fruit is better than gold, yes, than refined gold, and my increase than choice silver. I wisdom walk in the way of righteousness, moral and spiritual rectitude in every area and relation, in the midst of the plat of the paths of justice, that I may cause those who love me to inherit true riches, and that I may fill their treasuries. The Lord formed and brought me wisdom forth at the beginning of his way, before his acts of old. When there were no depths, I was brought forth, when there were no fountains laden with water, before the mountains were settled, before the hills I was brought forth, while as yet he had not made the land or the fields or the first of the dust of the earth, when he prepared the heavens, I wisdom was there, when he drew a circle upon the face of the deep and stretched out the firmament over it, when he made firm the skies above, and when he established the fountains of the deep, when he gave to the seas its limit, and his decree that was waters should not discret transgress across the boundaries set by his command, when he appointed the foundations of the earth, then I was beside him, as a master and director of the work, and I was daily his delight, rejoicing before him always, rejoicing in his inhabited earth, and delighting in the sons of men. Now therefore listen to me, O you sons, for blessed, happy, fortunate to be envied are those who keep my ways. Hear instruction, and be wise, and do not refuse or neglect it. Blessed, happy, fortunate to be envied is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my door. For whoever finds me, wisdom finds life, and draws forth and obtains favor from the Lord. But he who misses me or sins against me wrongs and endures himself, all who hate me love and court death. This is a very interesting proverb, and it gets into the origins of wisdom and how wisdom was there before the earth, before it was created. And so I believe that wisdom was actually the Son of God, was Jesus Christ, and also known as Yeshua. And the the thing about it was there's a lot of parallels. And I know in Proverbs it refers to wisdom as she or as a woman, but there's no other references to this woman being around before the earth began. But in John 1:1, it talks about in the beginning there was God, and the God was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was Jesus Christ. And so that shows that you know that the Son of God was always there with the Father and with the Spirit, the Holy Spirit in the beginning. So this is an interesting proverb about the origin story of wisdom and the benefits of seeking it, seeking the the person. It's not a force, it's not a thing, it's a person. And so that will conclude today's proverb. This is your host, Deuce Brandt, for the Eagles Wing Podcast. Hope you have a great day.
