Proverbs 2:10-11 KJV — When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul; Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:
The critical skill in juggling is throwing and not catching.
If you throw the ball correctly, the catching will take care of itself.
How you throw the ball really matters in juggling.
Similarly, how you receive the Word is the critical step.
The promises of preservation and being kept are downstream from receiving the Word of God in your heart.
