UNDERSTANDING
3
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
1 Corinthians 2:12[KJV]
We can see from the above statement the gift of wisdom is a true gift of God and can only be obtained thru the spirit of Christ. The anointing is what allows the heart to receive the information as truth and shares the wonders[secrets] of God unlimited power. It is fascinating how yesterday one could not understand why a flower lifts its petals toward the sun, why a squirrel gathers nuts in the fall, or how does the moon know when to shine the brightest thru the dark; then know all those things today.
It is amazing to walk in faith yesterday, apply the instruction given today, and witness the reward tomorrow. To be given wisdom about your circumstances solely so you can experience victory and overcome the adversity before you. For God does not have to share the sign as well as wonders so that you can be prosperous and have life more abundantly. God does not need for us to understand the importance of a storm, why the drought is allowed, or why a running stream is better than stagnet pond. God simply gives the gift of wisdom because He loves us.
Know there is no hidden agenda, no alternative motive, or any coded message why God extends the gift of wisdom; God just wants us to know him truly. The MOST HIGH wants us to understand why the adversary fears him, why he gave Adam dominion over the land, and why the land needs a Messiah.
For it is written
And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. 1John 5:20[KJV]
Consider when God gave Daniel wisdom about Nebs dream it was not just for Daniel but for all the spectators as well. Only God can give a gift that can touch not just you but everyone involved. Be reminded how the wisdom revealed to Joshua made him aware there was a problem in his camp and caused him to seek God face according to Joshua 7:5-7. It was wisdom that encouraged Elisha to follow Elijah so he could be in place to receive a double portion according to 2Kings 2:9 and it was wisdom that kept David alive during the season of King Saul seeking his life.
Know that the gift of wisdom protects us against the attacks of the adversary and reminds us daily God has not forsaken us in our hour of need. It is the tool that assist us to expereince victory against lies, deceptions, and shadows presented as truth. It is the gift that brightens the bricks on our path or journey we are privileged to walk with the Father and the gift that transform the mind into the witness it was created to be.
Be encouraged
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
Colossians 1:9[KJV]
