Happy Weekend Everyone,
People always want to know, and knowledge here is to know what wisdom is, in other words, how can wisdom be identified? Jesus is wisdom, and as Apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 1:24, Jesus is the Power and Wisdom of God. He also stated on Colossians 2:3, about Christ that, “in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.” So, it is safe to say that Jesus is the embodiment of wisdom and knowledge. Still, this would not be clear enough to elaborate my point, so let’s take a look at Proverbs 8:1-4 which says,
“Does not wisdom cry out, and understanding lift up her voice? She takes her stand on the top of the high hill, beside the way, where the paths meet. She cries out by the gates, at the entry of the city, at the entrance of the doors: To you, O men, I call, and my voice is to the sons of men.”
This is the platform for understanding that wisdom is everywhere. A person could speak words of wisdom; a simple thing as the closing of the door; a bird chirping, they all could be wisdom crying out.
The heart of man on its own cannot decipher things accurately, but as I said, the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are found in Jesus, He is the one who would make you know when wisdom calls, in other words, how to decipher correctly and accurately. Now, letting Jesus into your life gives you access to the Holy Spirit who is the Spirit of Jesus or the Spirit of Truth who directs your every move or calls your attention to wisdom.
Now, Proverbs 8:7-8 explains to us how to identify wisdom, it says, “For my mouth will speak the truth; wickedness is an abomination to my lips. All the words of my mouth are with righteousness; nothing crooked or perverse is in them.”
Proverbs 8:7-8 is referring to the characteristics of the person in you, who is the Spirit of Truth, who is the Spirit of Jesus. So, He recognises His handiwork and alerts you, this is where perfection comes in. However, it is left to you to follow wisdom or not to follow wisdom, but the truth is that the Spirit of Jesus would always identify wisdom so as not to fall into that which appears as wisdom but is not.
It appears so simple, right? Yes and No, it is simple, because of the process, however, in getting there, you must be focused and not be double-minded to achieve this purpose. Being determined in getting to know wisdom at its finest doesn’t take a day’s work, but consistency is the way out because Proverbs 8:10 and 11 says, “Receive my instruction, and not silver, and knowledge rather than choice gold; for wisdom is better than rubies, and all the things one may desire cannot be compared with her." Let me be very honest with you, these are not just mere words of advice, it is the truth, wisdom is better than rubies, and all the things one may desire cannot be compared with her. If you think I’m joking let me show you why next time.
May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
