Shalom,

Proverbs 25:2 is another of my favorite verses! Before we look specifically at this verse, I want to look at Revelation 1:5-6:

5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, 6 And has made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. KJV

These "kings and priests" that John is referring to here is US! The Church of Jesus Christ! The born again ones! WE are NOW kings and priests unto our God! So NOW let's look at Proverbs 25:2:

 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing, but the glory of kings is to search out a thing.  AMP

So we see here that it brings God "glory", the Greek word "kabowd", which means splendor; copiousness; honor; riches, abundance; dignity, to conceal something. He HIDES this valuable and weighty TRUTH of His Word, not FROM us, but FOR us! The world cannot understand the Word of God, but WE can (1 Corinthians 2:14; Mark 4:11)! HALLELUJAH!!! It brings HIS "glory" into our lives when we "search" out the hidden Truth! This is the Greek word "chaqar". It means: to search to examine thoroughly; to investigate; to explore; to seek. Jeremiah 29:13 tells us this:

13 Then you will seek Me, inquire for, and require Me [as a vital necessity] and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. AMP

Let's DO IT! AMEN! Let's act like those kings and priests that HE has made us! Lets make seeking His face our daily priority! When we do, He says we will find Him and when we find HIM, we find all TRUTH! Here is Hillsong Young and Free with "Love Goes On":


Shalom in Him!
