What is wisdom?

Wisdom is the correct application of knowledge acquired. Also, it is to know what right thing to do and doing it. So, it is the difference between success and failure, health and sickness, riches and poverty, faith and fear, and so on. Furthermore, according to James 3:15-17, there are 2 categories of wisdom: one that is earthly, sensual, and demonic, and one that is from above or heavenly.

This is the wisdom that is from above; that is, from God. Furthermore, it is different from the other category in that it is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy; while the other category is where envy and self-seeking exit, as such confusion and every evil thing are there. Therefore, wisdom of God is what brings success and directs you profitably. Read more...

Have a desire to have wisdom and ask the Lord for it. God said that if you delight yourself in Him He will grant the desires of your heart (Psalm 37:4).

What Is Wisdom To You?

What is wisdom to you? Do you walk in it? An understanding of the meaning of a thing makes it possible for you to assess your usage and development of it. Wisdom is the principal thing in life and so should be consciously acquired and used. This post explains what wisdom is.

Wisdom is the solution to your challenge, but if you don't know what wisdom is how will you identify one when you see or hear it? Therefore, it is important to know what it is.

What Is Wisdom?

According to Cambridge dictionary, it is the ability to use your knowledge and experience to make good decisions and judgments. As such, it is the correct application of knowledge and experience acquired.

Dr David Oyedepo defines it as, "knowing what to do and doing it, knowing what to say and saying it, and knowing where to go and going there."

Therefore, it is not enough to know what to say or do, or where to go, it is important that you say or do it, or go there otherwise it is not wisdom. You must apply the knowledge for it to be wisdom.

Furthermore, the fear of the Lord is wisdom (Job 28:28). Having the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). This is where to start if you want to build up this virtue in you. The application of wisdom is here on earth and God is the creator of the earth. No action contrary to His principles will be regarded as wisdom by Him.
