Proverbs 4:5-7 NKJV Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. [6] Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. [7] Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.
Proverbs 16:16 AMPC How much better it is to get skillful and godly Wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.
Luke 2:40 NKJV And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him.
Colossians 1:9-10 NKJV [9] For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; [10] that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God...
What is wisdom? Wisdom is Godly insight, Godly judgement and Godly knowledge
Wisdom from above according to James 3:17 is first of all pure (undefiled); then it is peace-loving, courteous (considerate, gentle). [It is willing to] yield to reason, full of compassion and good fruits; it is wholehearted and straightforward, impartial and unfeigned (free from doubts, wavering, and insincerity).
We’ve been given wisdom by the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit; why not use it. Ignorance is not a thing when we actively participate and seek as our primary pursuit the Kingdom of God and right standing with Him.
But when He, the Spirit of Truth (the Truth-giving Spirit) comes, He will guide you into all the Truth (the whole, full Truth). For He will not speak His own message [on His own authority]; but He will tell whatever He hears [from the Father; He will give the message that has been given to Him], and He will announce and declare to you the things that are to come [that will happen in the future].
So let’s pursue it, live by it, give God the Glory for it.
