Proverbs 17:24 (NKJV) 24 Wisdom is in the sight of him who has understanding,...
The confusion of knowledge and wisdom is easly put away if we understand where this attribute comes from. Knowledge is the "facts, information or skill, acquired by a person through experience or education" Webster's. Wisdom is a gift from God, it is actually a part of Him and He gives it to His children. How do we get wisdom, I am so glad you asked.
Wisdom is "the quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgment;" Webster's, and so much more, it is the work of finding God's order in this life and my life being conformed to His will. God says, those who seek Him are wise, Psalms 14:2, our actions, our life style, our words, tell the story of our wisdom, not from mans perspective, but God's. The only way to get wisdom is through the Son, Jesus Christ, He must live in us for us to have His attributes. Our creator says, "not many are wise" 1 Corinthians 1:26, obedience is the key, the Son also says, "the way is narrow and only a few will find it," are you a part of the few, are you openly obedient, then know that your life is a special treasure to God for you are truly wise.
Heavenly Father, we know that You are looking for an obedient wise servant, one that seeks You with all their being. Help us today to wait on You and trust You with all of our heart.
