Drawing closer to Jehovah brings happiness because it allows us to gain practical wisdom from the Bible, which guides our decisions and protects us from harmful influences. For example, by following Jehovah’s advice on honesty, we foster trust in our relationships, avoiding the stress that comes from deceit. Additionally, embracing wisdom about staying away from negative company can help us maintain a positive environment, leading to greater personal peace and joy.
The closer we draw to Jehovah, the happier we will be. (Ps. 65:4) This is true for many reasons. For one thing, we benefit from applying the practical wisdom found in his Word, the Bible. Such wisdom protects us from bad influences and from making serious mistakes. (Read Proverbs 2:6-16.) Appropriately, the Bible states: “Happy is the man who finds wisdom and the man who acquires discernment.”—Prov. 3:13
