OUR SOURCE OF WISDOM!
James 1:5 – Devotional
James 1:5
“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.”
Wisdom is different than knowledge. I can recall as a teenager watch as college students taunted a brilliant student who possessed superior knowledge, but lacked the common sense to apply it to everyday life.
All of us may be aware or remember individuals who possessed superior mental ability, yet lacked the practical ability to use that great potential in ways that could be useful. They knew, but they could not apply!
God has graciously promised us His wisdom for our life. Our Scripture for today fills us with confidence that when we come to the Lord and seek His wisdom for our life, He will not fail us. The problem is that we fail to open the source of His wisdom – – THE BIBLE.
When we seek to know and understand God’s will for our life, we must spend time in the Bible. A walk in the park or a hike in the hills may invigorate us, but it will not provide us with His wisdom. God breathed on the writers of Scripture to give us what we need to know in order to live victoriously for Him. Receive it!
Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become a blessing!
