“WISDOM!”

Me-Maw Thoughts

Have you ever been frustrated and caught in a situation where you just did not have any idea what to do or which direction to go?

Every day of our lives we need wisdom as we make choices, we need understanding in various situations, and knowledge to complete our daily task.

What do you lean on to guide you in your daily walk?

Your education, on the job training, internet, facebook, friends, or thousands of other places? Your GPS may get you from one place to another, and a user’s manual may help you navigate a computer program.

Have you found yourself looking up something on the internet and finding several different directions or opinions! That can be frustrating but there is a better way!

Where do real wisdom, understanding and knowledge come from?

The Bible, God’s written word, gives us the answer!

James 1:5 (KJV) 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 3:17 (KJV) But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.

Consider the past few days! Where have you turned to each day with the situations you face or even the normal daily task?

We have an unending source of wisdom that is just a whispered prayer away!

“Father what do I do? I need your guidance and wisdom to do this right or make the right choice (or whatever else you are facing). Give me the knowledge and understanding!”

Paul the apostle, writing to the Corinthian church, declared what the wisdom from other sources amount to:

1 Corinthians 3:19 (KJV) For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.

All the experience and book learning we have gained from this worlds culture, is nothing but foolishness in God’s sight! His wisdom and guidance give us real life and days of peace and joy deep inside!

Look back at James 3:17. The wisdom from God gives peace not turmoil, is gentle and kind to others and gives mercy to those around us.

What a difference our world would be if even just those who claim to be Christians walked in wisdom from above daily. The atmosphere all around us would begin to change because we have the understanding, knowledge, and wisdom that the world systems cannot give.

We get so caught up in what others think or what the world systems tell us is the way to go, we find ourselves walking with attitudes and actions that are not of God and do not spread His Love!

My prayer today for each of you is found in Ephesians 1:17!

Ephesians 1:17 (KJV) That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

______________________________________________

Father, in Jesus’ name I come! I decree and declare that each one who reads this understands how much you love them and how much you long to fill each of us with, the wisdom from you, with understanding, and with knowledge. We need your wisdom in this world system that has lost the truth that you are real, and you will help us love each other and walk in unity! May each of us walk in the truth of your will, your way, and your word! Amen!

Love, Memaw
