Proverbs 4:8 (NKJV) — 8 Exalt her, and she will promote you; She will bring you honor, when you embrace her.

The source of promotion and honor. When people put wisdom first, when they are so intimately involved with wisdom that they can be said to “embrace” her, she will reciprocate by giving promotion and honor. Ultimately, promotion is not a matter of luck or having right connections; it is the result of having the right attitude toward wisdom.
