Wisdom's invitation is extended to the whole human family, revealing God's purpose to teach every individual who is willing to be taught. Blessedness rests on the one who hears heavenly wisdom with close attention and persists in waiting to receive its instruction. Watching day by day at the gates and lingering at the doorposts signifies attentive, regular, daily seeking after God and His teaching. Such hearing is the work of genuine faith laying hold upon the entire person, lifting the soul out of an imperfect and undeveloped condition into an understanding of what true wisdom is.
