Why am I saying this?
Simply because the world is now full of teachers and philosophers who believe their own thing and relay in their own reasoning. But the Bible serves as a final authority for all the questions of life.
To the question that says: 'How do we get wisdom?', this is the answer from the Bible:
' If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking.' (James 1:5)
If you need wisdom in your life, simply ask and God won't even rebuke you for that because it is a very pleasing request to God.
When we face dilemma, financial troubles,issues in life or work, let'us seek wisdom.
You seek God's Wisdom by asking Him just like Solomon did. There is nothing complicated about it. Just have faith.
Proverbs 8:35 reads:
Those who find Wisdom, also find life and favor from the Lord. This includes life for all your dead bones, dead ideas, dead finance, dead projects, dead dreams, anything that was dead will come to life. Not only shall you receive life but also 'favor' from God.
How can we define favor?
Favor can be defined as a stamp of approval from God. It is a demonstrated (active) delight that God shows towards an individual. When Solomon requested for Wisdom, God was delighted (1 Kings 3:1-15). The reason why God will not rebuke you for requesting wisdom,is because the same wisdom will lead you to be like Him and love His commands. And God delights in those who follow His commands.
Do you want favor and a full life from God?
Then ask for wisdom.
Now, a good question remains: 'How do I know that I have wisdom?'
I will respond to the above question in an upcoming post...soon.
