“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.” James 1:5
Wisdom
Fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. True wisdom comes from the LORD. He said ask and we will receive. If anyone of us wants wisdom God will give it to us freely. But we must ask in faith, believing that he is. And whatever we ask we must not ask to consume it on our lusts but to better ourselves spiritually. For we serve a Holy God, not a carnal God.
He doesn’t care about this world, to be a friend of this world makes you his enemy. He is coming to make this world his footstool. The wisdom of this world is foolishness. He cares about us more than anything else. He loves us all and does not wish that any of us should perish. Without wisdom, knowledge, and understanding we cannot make it into the kingdom of heaven.
Wisdom is calling out every day and understanding is knowledge of the Holy One. Gain wisdom and knowledge by abiding in his word daily. For Jesus is the Word that became flesh. Eat his flesh and drink his blood daily, for he alone has the words of eternal life.
