WE are living at a time when it is God’s Superior Wisdom that will help us overcome in the affairs of this sophisticated generation. Over and over again, the place of God’s Wisdom in our lives can never be substituted. It is amazing from Biblical history that, everyone who walked in God’s Superior Wisdom became an enigma with international relevance, recognition and impacts.
It is also exciting to know from ancient history that the wisest Solomon was the richest. Despite the challenges of leadership at his time, king Solomon was outstanding, resourceful and exceptional. Everyone who received God’s Superior Wisdom affected his or her generation positively.

Despite the vicissitudes of life and the negative exigencies of his time, Joseph was acknowledged by Pharaoh as a man whose wisdom would tackle all the looming disaster in Egypt. He demonstrated God’s Superior Wisdom, as he was wiser than the wisest men of Egypt. Daniel was a recurring decimal in leadership of the successive generations of the Babylonian Empire. It became inevitable that this Daniel had to be promoted above all the Presidents. Daniel 6:3-4 “Then this Daniel WAS PREFERRED ABOVE the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him”. Daniel enjoyed preference because an excellent Spirit of wisdom was found in him.

There are vacancies in the top and high places of life for men and women with great wisdom. The Word of God extols the value and virtue of God’s Wisdom. Proverbs 4:7 “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding”. Wisdom is the tangible capital asset, which everyone must acquire to build a successful and victorious life. We are all encouraged in 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”. The Word of God tells us that our Heavenly Father is THE ONLY WISE GOD. Jude 1:25 “To THE ONLY WISE GOD our Saviour, be Glory and Majesty, Dominion and Power, both now and ever. Amen”.

So, you cannot identify with the most wise and become the most foolish. Wisdom is given to us to solve problems, manage crisis, generate resources, proffer solutions and tackle matters with discernment and Godly precision. Proverbs 16:20 “He that HANDLETH A MATTER WISELY shall find GOOD”. Proverbs 28:26 “but whoso WALKETH WISELY, he shall BE DELIVERED”. With God’s wisdom in your life, you become a man or woman of insight, creativity, great manager, entrepreneur with a spirit of excellence.

Jesus has been made unto us for wisdom. 1Corinthians 1:30 “But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, WHO OF GOD IS MADE UNTO US WISDOM, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption”. Jesus is the Wisdom of God personified and incarnated in the flesh. When you make Jesus the LORD of your life and walk in fellowship with Him, you display exceptional wisdom and reign in this life. Ask for God’s Superior Wisdom for your business, choice of a marriage partner, wisdom to manage your home, children, finances, people etc. Receive God’s Superior Wisdom in JESUS MIGHTY NAME.

PRAYER: Father God, I come to You today to ask for Your Superior Wisdom. Father, grant unto me the Spirit of Wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of You. Flood my life with Your Illumination that ignorance and stupidity be obliterated from my life. LORD, cause me to excel through the Spirit of Wisdom. I pursue wisdom not foolishness. JESUS the LORD, is my Wisdom and clear understanding.
