How We Put God's Wisdom to Work
Michael Edwards
The proper definition of wisdom is the accurate use of knowledge.
As Christians, we've been given great knowledge from God.
The proper definition of wisdom is the accurate use of knowledge.
As Christians, we've been given great knowledge from God.
But the question is, do we just fill our heads with it and cry for help?
Or, are we applying the expertise and walking in His peace?
If we are struggling and crying out to God for help, maybe He is silent because He is waiting for us to apply what we have been given.
"And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it." Matt 7:26-27 ESV
Here is some basic knowledge given believers, paraphrased from God's word.

All seeds, waiting to become wisdom through application.
Seek the Kingdom of God first and all these things will be added to you - Matt 6:33.
Do not fear or worry, be anxious about anything, pray first in all things and God's peace will guard you - Phil 4:6.
Be content with what you have – Heb 13:5.
Build treasure in heaven not in this temporary world – Matt 6:20.
Forget yourself to find real life – Matt 16:25.
Bodily exercise helps little but spiritual exercise in godliness helps forever – 1 Tim 4:8.
Seek Jesus peace, not the worlds, let not your heart be troubled or afraid – John 14:27.
Love others as I have loved you – John 15:12.
Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and do not lean on your own understanding - Pro 3:5-6.

Stick to it for thirty days and see the difference.
If you fail, just begin again.
Wisdom says consistency, not perfection, brings victory.
Get wisdom, get understanding; do not forget my words or turn from them. Do not forsake wisdom, and she will preserve you; love her, and she will guard you. Pro 4-6 BSB
