The book of proverbs explains to us that God is wise and that when we recognize that wisdom in our everyday decisions, we find the way to prosper and achieve our happiness: "In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.", Proverbs 3:6.
In the old testament we do not need faith to find God, he manifests himself in the perfections of creation: "His works are perfect.", Deuteronomy 32:4. In other words, we do not need a church to worship God, the creator with his wisdom surrounds us and we in our walk have to find him making the correct decisions: "For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities - his eternal power and divine nature - have been clearly seen being understood from what has been made", Romans 1:20.
The spiritual gift of trust or security in God is born when we understand internally, through a renewed heart towards God, that the universe returns what we give it, if we sow error we receive a curse, if instead we are assertive (precise and accurate) we receive blessing: "Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life", Galatians 6:8.
The book proverbs call us to find God like Job or like King Solomon, in the search for instruction, because knowledge is before love, to love something you have to know it first, love comes from wisdom; this is how adult faith works: "The beginning of wisdom is the most sincere desire for instruction", Wisdom 6:17; "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom", Proverbs 1:7
