03 Oct Cultivating God’s Wisdom
There are many ways to define wisdom. In the sixth century BC, Greek writer Aeschylus said wisdom “comes through suffering.”
🎯In the eighteenth century, novelist Oliver Goldsmith said wisdom “consists in tracing effects to their causes.”
🎯 Believers know there is a difference between the wisdom described by people like this and God’s wisdom.
🎯With some urgency, the Bible encourages us to “get wisdom”
💥This process starts by seeking God and asking Him for wisdom, realizing that He delights to give us His wisdom.
💥He stores wisdom for those who are upright. It is there, available for us.
🎯God’s wisdom is always true. It can teach us how to act in every situation and foster productive habits.
💥It helps us think through options and make the right choices.
🎯It gives us understanding and provides us with a shield. It helps us recognize deception, so we don’t go in the wrong direction
🎯Wisdom helps us pursue the right kind of relationships. Solomon, the author of these proverbs, realized the impact of poor choices. He reminds us that biblical wisdom can help us stay alert to danger and deliver us from harmful relationships.
