It is one thing to be educated. It is quite another to have wisdom.

Finding and Getting Wisdom. None should lack, Wisdom. James 1 verse 5:“Now if any of you lacks wisdom, He {or she} should ask God, who gives to all generously and without criticizing, and it will be given to him {her}”.

The dictionary tells us that wisdom is: ability to discern inner qualities, insight, good sense and judgement.That is from a worldly point of view, but there is more to it than that.

We need to have Godly wisdom. Godly wisdom comes directly from The Father, and it produces righteousness and peace.Godly wisdom is pure and courteous, merciful and sincere.Godly wisdom is straightforward and direct, and accomplishes tasks at hand.

This is a direct contrast to worldly wisdom, that gets filtered through cultural standards of the day.Worldly wisdom is foolishness to the God that created us.Proverbs 3 verse 7: “Don’t consider yourself to be wise; fear The Lord and turn form evil”.

Do not be wise with the wisdom of the world which is foolishness, to The Lord, but ask Him to give us, His wisdom, and then we will see things from His perceptive.Ask God for wisdom and He will freely give it to you, but there is a little discernment to be done in asking.

We are to ask in Faith. James 1 verse 6:“But let him {or her} ask in Faith without doubting. For the doubters is like the surging sea, driven and tossed by the wind”.

God Bless
