I hope you had a great Easter weekend. After taking inventory of my life, I’m so grateful that Jesus did what He did. It has allowed me to experience life as a dream coming true! You should feel the same way.
On the last few blog posts, I have been talking about higher forms of God’s substance. Money is the lowest form of God’s substance but, there are other forms of God’s substance that are higher. We all know that Love is the highest form of God’s substance. My focus is to show you that if you use the higher forms of God’s substance, then you can control the lowest form of God’s substance.
In this blog, I want to give you another higher form of God’s substance, which is wisdom. I don’t want to give you a conventional definition of wisdom. I like to give definitions that will allow you understand and apply. So here goes.
Wisdom is knowing what to do, when to do, and how to do (Bad English but you get my point). Another definition is having the ability to accomplish more with what you have now. When it takes others more to accomplish the same thing.
In other words, God’s wisdom will allow you to accomplish more with the money you have now. While it may take others more money to do the same thing you’re doing with less.
That’s why Proverbs 4:7 is so powerful. It says that WISDOM is the PRINCIPLE thing! It is the main thing! Let’s look at it this way. God will tell you what to do, when to do, and how to do to accomplish more with what you have now. When others are relying on their own intelligence to accomplish the same thing you are accomplishing except they need more money! That’s Isaiah 48:17!
Isaiah 48:17 says that God is willing to show you how to profit! God is willing to tell you secrets that will cause you to profit.
God even said that He will give you wisdom if you ask (James 1:5). So, if you ask, God will tell you what to do, when to do, and how to do so that you can profit. WOW! It's as simple as that!
I’ll finish with this. Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. Get God’s wisdom because GOD’S WISDOM CONTROLS money!

Wow! Thought provoking something to truly meditate on.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rev. Leroy. I had to come back and read this again. I am going over Dad Thompson's message he taught on Wisdom in 2006. This blog is truly thought provoking!
