God’s wisdom is scarce and it is becoming more scarce as the days go on.
It is not because God doesn’t have a world full of wisdom. It is because people are not seeking God.
People have their own wisdom, their own understanding and they figure things out on their own.
Some push God aside even when they know Him to proclaim their own understanding as wisdom.
God’s wisdom is more rare as the vessels that could bear it have chosen their own folly instead.
God’s wisdom always goes along with the fear of the Lord. God’s wisdom is not valued in the world.
The wise people of the world say: What does God know better than man?
Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
Proverbs 4:7
This counterfeit wisdom the world has looks good.
What did Satan say in the garden?
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened,
and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes,
and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat,
and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. Genesis 3:5-6
Much of the world has taken the fruit that makes them wise.
Seeking God’s wisdom is all encompassing.
You think you are wise until the Lord shows you His wisdom in any given situation.
Still, some reject it or they never have the honor of understanding God’s wisdom.
It takes humility before God.
That is, realizing that He is smarter than we are, He knows more than we do and His word is always right.
Seeking God’s wisdom should be constant to a Christian.
There are several things I have laid before the Lord in the queue. I’m waiting to be shown His wisdom.
When He extends it, I will recognize it.
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not;
and it shall be given him. James 1:5
Abundant wisdom. Plenty for whatever we need.
Let us not assume we have God’s wisdom when we haven’t sought it or asked for it.
Amen, so profound.
