GET THE WORD...GET WISDOM.

GET THE WORD...GET WISDOM.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness (1 Corinthians 3:19).

If you’re going to live a victorious, prosperous and glorious life, you have to know, understand and live by the Word. The Lord Jesus once made a remarkable statement to the Jews, saying, “...Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God” (Matthew 22:29). Many miss it, and function outside of the wisdom of God because they’re ignorant of God’s Word. That’s why the accurate teaching of the Word is so important. God’s Word empowers and propels you to live the transcendent life.

The Word of God is the wisdom of God. It doesn’t matter what you’ve experienced in life, who your advisers are, how many books you might have read, or what you’ve seen in life, if you don’t have the Word in you, you don’t have the wisdom of God, and therefore can’t excel. The wisdom of men may take you some distance, but only the wisdom of God will take you all the way.

Wisdom is the revelation of God; it’s insight into reality. The knowledge of God’s Word inspires the wisdom of God in you to know, say, and do the right thing, at the right time, in God’s way. Consider Moses, as he stood by the Red Sea with the children of Israel, God said, “Stretch your hand over the water, and divide it!”

If he had consulted with scientists and philosophers, they probably would have queried him with indignation: “What do you mean God told you to divide such expanse of waters with a rod in your hand?“ They certainly would have thought he lost his mind. Howbeit, Moses already received the Word from the Lord, and was therefore propelled by wisdom. He did as he was instructed, and the sea parted—congealed on both sides—for the children of Israel to walk through on dry ground (Exodus 14:21-22). It was the manifestation of the wisdom of God.

True wisdom is of the Spirit, and comes by the Word. And through meditation, the Word of God takes root in your spirit, producing in you “phronesis” (Greek)—the wisdom or mindset of the righteous.

PRAYER
Dear heavenly Father, thank you for the wisdom that’s been made available through your Word. Christ has been made unto me wisdom; therefore, I walk in divine wisdom. I have supernatural ability to comprehend spiritual realities, and walk in your perfect will always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

1 Corinthians 1:30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

1 Corinthians 2:6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:

Proverbs 4:7-9 Wisdom isthe principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. 8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her. 9 She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.
