WHY DO WE NEED WISDOM?

WHY DO WE NEED WISDOM? IT SET US UP FOR A GOOD LIFE AND IT SAVES US FROM EVIL.

Definition of Wisdom – Wikipedia

Wisdom, sapience, or sagacity is the ability to think and act using knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense and insight. Wisdom is associated with attributes such as unbiased judgment, compassion, experiential self-knowledge, self-transcendence and non-attachment, and virtues such as ethics and benevolence.

Now, for us to gain knowledge and have clear understanding of the things that are going on and to come, in our personal lives and around us, we must first get wisdom. Wisdom is the quality of one, applying his experience, knowledge, and good judgment, (showing common sense, prudence, understanding, insight, soundness, saneness, and advisability) when confronted with the requirement to perform an action or make a decision.  

You may think that you are alone, in finding true wisdom (wisdom of YHWH), but you are not. We all can, sometimes, find our self in a state of false truths (truths we convince our self is true simply because we want it to be) and this is where wisdom comes in to play. We must seek it in Yashuah’s name so that it is the truth and can be used as designed. If we are sincere about wanting to be wise enough to serve the LORD with whole heart, we must have wisdom. It does not take an army to round it up we only need ask our LORD to help us find it. This is one of His most delightful specialty, making His children wise in the Word as well as in the world. And when He gives it to us, we, hold on to it, cultivate it, do not let it waste away: we must use it. (James 1:5 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you).

As we obtain wisdom, we can encourage our self and others with the message of Christ; our daily bread (everything we need). We will allow it to flow through our mind, body, heard and spirit, to bring us the knowledge, joy and understanding, given by Elohim, needed to weather any storm. It will inspire our songs of glory, strengthen our weak and weary hearts to beat on, inside, as a drum in the middle of war, across this worn and desolate land. And it will be our banner of praise and gratitude as we go about doing good, singing songs and teaching and admonishing (warn (someone) of something to be avoided). (Colossians 3:16 16 Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts).

LOVE AND WISDOM ARE A POWERFUL COMBINATION.

So, let us be noticeably clear that it is through Yashuah’s help and the ability, He gives us, that we acquire wisdom, when we ask; that it becomes an integral part of our life’s fabric.  He opens our minds to understand and apply knowledge which helps develop skills (already in us), so that we become wise in the way of the LORD. We can set a course of love, joy, peace, and happiness knowing that the LORD our God has granted us the much-needed wisdom, to help us find our way, while helping others along our journey. Then, when we are faced with the daily situations and circumstances, we can consider, without quick judgement or unrighteous one, what course of action, or decision need to be applied. It is with the wisdom, gained, that we become dependent on the Lord, fixed in our belief, true in our trust, anchored with His love.  God’s got it no worry no fear.

Proverbs 2 (MORAL BENEFITS OF WISDOM)

1 My son, if you accept my words

    and store up my commands within you,

2 turning your ear to wisdom

    and applying your heart to understanding—

3 indeed, if you call out for insight

    and cry aloud for understanding,

4 and if you look for it as for silver

    and search for it as for hidden treasure,

5 then you will understand the fear of the Lord

    and find the knowledge of God.

6 For the Lord gives wisdom;

    from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.

7 He holds success in store for the upright,

    he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless,

8 for he guards the course of the just

    and protects the way of his faithful ones.

9 Then you will understand what is right and just

    and fair—every good path.

10 For wisdom will enter your heart,

    and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.

11 Discretion will protect you,

    and understanding will guard you.

12 Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men,

    from men whose words are perverse,

13 who have left the straight paths

    to walk in dark ways,

14 who delight in doing wrong

    and rejoice in the perverseness of evil,

15 whose paths are crooked

    and who are devious in their ways.

16 Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman,

    from the wayward woman with her seductive words,

17 who has left the partner of her youth

    and ignored the covenant she made before God.[a]

18 Surely her house leads down to death

    and her paths to the spirits of the dead.

19 None who go to her return

    or attain the paths of life.

20 Thus you will walk in the ways of the good

    and keep to the paths of the righteous.

21 For the upright will live in the land,

    and the blameless will remain in it;

22 but the wicked will be cut off from the land,

    and the unfaithful will be torn from it.
