UNDERSTANDING DIVINE WISDOM

SCRIPTURE: “And all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had judged and they feared the king for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to do judgment”.  – 1 Kings 3:28
 
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Wisdom is behind outstanding existence.
 
The importance of wisdom to destiny fulfilment cannot be overemphasized.  Wisdom is behind outstanding existence. No wonder the scripture makes it clear that wisdom is the principal thing. (Proverbs 4:7)
 
Wisdom is defined as the ability to show Divine judgment in practical situations of life.
 

We can see this in the life of Solomon who delivered a landmark judgement to two prostitutes. The two prostitutes were quarrelling over a baby. One of them slept on her baby, killed it, and replaced it with the live baby of the other. Now, when the other woman whose baby she took woke up and discovered what she did, both of them began to struggle over the right ownership of the live baby.

Solomon, in judgement, demanded that the living baby be cut into two equal halves and shared among the two women. The woman whose baby died agreed with the suggestion but the other woman told the king not to slay the baby, but give it to her rival instead. Thus Solomon was able to know that the real owner of the baby was the woman who refused to have it killed, so he handed the baby over to her.

That was land mark wisdom in operation. That kind of wisdom is coming on you today in Jesus’ Name.

Remember this: Wisdom is behind outstanding existence.

ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Ask God for an outstanding wisdom in life.
2. Study the life of men of wisdom like Solomon, David, Daniel, etc., to learn about Divine wisdom.

PRAYER: O LORD, I ask for the replication of the Spirit of wisdom that was on Solomon on my life. Give me access to Your judgement over every situation of life, in Jesus’ Name.
