THE WISDOM OF GOD
Wisdom is more than just the collection of knowledge and facts. It is the ability to take that knowledge and those facts and relate them to life and eternity. The Bible is very clear that the beginning of wisdom is the fear of God. That means that we respect, reverence, honor and acknowledge that the Lord is God! Psalm 111:10; Proverbs 9:10
Biblical wisdom is the pursuit of the highest purpose and the greatest good. That pursuit is the glory of God Himself. God alone is all wise and chooses the highest end and the best means for achieving that goal.
We see God’s wisdom in the beauty and order of creation! Psalm 19:1-6
Creation displays the wisdom of its Creator.
We see God’s wisdom in His providence, His governance of human affairs! Acts 17:26-27
God uses all the intricacies of our lives to draw us closer to Him.
We see God’s wisdom in salvation! Who could ever design a way of salvation as God has? It is simple enough to explain to a child and intricate enough to defy the brilliance of the most brilliant minds.
If you want to really see the wisdom of God, then look at the cross of Jesus! Study that cross and the Savior’s death. For there you will see the demonstration of God’s great wisdom. Read I Corinthians 1:18-25. The world may call it foolishness but the Bible calls it the wisdom of God!
Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise
