The scriptures
Contain wisdom
Unknown yet to man
But it is there
Waiting to be
Revealed to us
God reveals
Through his word
Who we really are
We read the Bible
Not to memorize verses
But to find out
The wisdom of God
Proverbs 4:7
“Wisdom is the principal thing, therefore get wisdom…”
I Corinth 2:7
“But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory.”
Life can be
Challenging
The goal is
To get
Through it
With your
Faith
Still intact
II Corinth 5:7
“For we walk by faith, not by sight.”
I Corinth 2:5
“That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.”
Knowledge has to do
With the things seen
Wisdom is about
The things unseen
Seek wisdom first
Then knowledge
And understanding
Will follow
Proverbs 4:7
“Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom, and with all thy getting, get understanding.”
We gain
Understanding
Through
The wisdom
Of God
Not through
The knowledge
Of men
Proverbs 3:19
“The Lord by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.”
We have within us
The ability
To comprehend
The glory of God
Yet it is unexplainable
For that which has
No boundaries
Cannot be defined
The spirit of Christ
Is the glory of God
Ephesians 1:17-18
“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: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints…”
If wisdom
Comes with age
And experience
And the beginning
Of wisdom is
The fear of God
Then the end
Of wisdom
Must be
The love of God
Proverbs 9:10
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.”
I Corinth 3:19
“For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.”
Knowledge is nothing
Without the wisdom
To understand it
Proverbs 24:3
“Through wisdom is a house built; and by understanding it is established.”
Wisdom comes
From experience
Knowledge is learned
Proverbs 4:7
“Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom; and with all thy getting, get understanding.”
Job 12:12
“With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.”
We are born again
Literally
We are the ancient ones
Who have been sleeping
Awakening now
With the wisdom
And experience
Of a sage
Though seeing the world
As if for the first time
Through the eyes
Of a child
Knowledge is nothing
Without the wisdom
To understand it
Proverbs 24:3
“Through wisdom is a house built; and by understanding it is established.”
