Scriptures Weekly 14 - Wisdom

From a human perspective, the prolific neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson said it best about Wisdom and where it comes from -

"There are a lot of people with technical abilities, and there are a lot of people who have knowledge who don't necessarily have wisdom. The technical and knowledge skills are things that can be acquired, but wisdom comes from God, and it has to be sought and asked for."

Apostle Paul says in 1 Corinthians 1:27-30,

"But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of God. And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God."

And in…

Ephesians 1:16-17,

“Do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers: that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him”

Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!

“For who has known the mind of the Lord?
Or who has become His counselor?”

“Or who has first given to Him
And it shall be repaid to him?”

For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever.

Amen
