WISDOM: A PRODUCT OF KNOWLEDGE

Memorise: “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever” ( Psalm 111:10 )

Read: Psalm 111:4-10

The knowledge of God not only produces physical strength but also mental strength. Daniel 2:20-21 says that God is the custodian of wisdom and that people become wise only because God releases a fraction of wisdom to them.

Hence, James 1:5-6 says if you lack wisdom in any area of life, the right person to go to is God. Today, many people are joining the occult, metaphysics, esoterics and allied idealogies in their quest for wisdom and power. They will continue to be disappointed because they have gone to the wrong places.

Of course, Satan will give them alternatives which can never be God’s original offer. After such initiates have explored the occult and realized what they have is not what they wanted, they may not leave for fear of death. If you are in such a situation, run to Jesus today and He will set you free.

“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever” (Psalm 111:10 ).
