Wisdom of God....in these times III

When we can relate to Him and know HIM , His wisdom is evident in our lives.


We are God's treasure. When He lives in us, we reveal His wisdom at work, and He works for us.


So , in the end...all it takes is trusting Him completely.

So why can't I appropriate this truth in my life and just sail through life and all it's challenges with this wisdom that God gives me?

We see things with our eyes, we hear and listen with our ears......and use our five senses.  We BELIEVE what we see, hear , taste, smell and touch.  That's where our problem lies. When we can live beyond our senses, and "hear" what God has to say to us, we are one step ahead on God's wisdom trail...:-)

Now just come with me....

1 Cor 2:7 - 16

But rather what we are setting forth is a wisdom of God once hidden [from the human understanding] and now revealed to us by God--[that wisdom] which God devised {and} decreed before the ages for our glorification [to lift us into the glory of His presence].
None of the rulers of this age {or} world perceived {and} recognized {and} understood this, for if they had, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory.

 But, on the contrary, as the Scripture says, What eye has not seen and ear has not heard and has not entered into the heart of man, [all that] God has prepared (made and keeps ready) for those who love Him [who hold Him in affectionate reverence, promptly obeying Him and gratefully recognizing the benefits He has bestowed].

Yet to us God has unveiled {and} revealed them by {and} through His Spirit, for the [Holy] Spirit searches diligently, exploring {and} examining everything, even sounding the profound and bottomless things of God [the divine counsels and things hidden and beyond man's scrutiny].

For what person perceives (knows and understands) what passes through a man's thoughts except the man's own spirit within him? Just so no one discerns (comes to know and comprehend) the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.

 And we are setting these truths forth in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the [Holy] Spirit, combining {and} interpreting spiritual truths with spiritual language [to those who possess the Holy Spirit].

 But the natural, nonspiritual man does not accept {or} welcome {or} admit into his heart the gifts {and} teachings {and} revelations of the Spirit of God, for they are folly (meaningless nonsense) to him; and he is incapable of knowing them [of progressively recognizing, understanding, and becoming better acquainted with them] because they are spiritually discerned {and} estimated {and} appreciated.

 But the spiritual man tries all things [he examines, investigates, inquires into, questions, and discerns all things], yet is himself to be put on trial and judged by no one [he can read the meaning of everything, but no one can properly discern {or} appraise {or} get an insight into him].

 For who has known {or} understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of the Lord so as to guide {and} instruct Him {and} give Him knowledge? But we have the mind of Christ (the Messiah) {and} do hold the thoughts (feelings and purposes) of His heart.

Having the wisdom of God goes hand in hand with inviting and receiving the Holy Spirit into our lives.  We  make decisions based on the revelation to us by the Holy Spirit who reveals the mind of Christ ( Who is wisdom) to us. 

Do you get it?  No...do you REALLY get it?

It says " for the [Holy] Spirit searches diligently, exploring {and} examining everything, even sounding the profound and bottomless things of God [the divine counsels and things hidden and beyond man's scrutiny]."

 Which means the HOLY SPIRIT knows everything. And He reveals to us the mind of Christ. And we receive divine wisdom.

Wow. It's beautiful. The way God has orchestrated this world and everything in and about it is awesome.  When we realize that we on our own are truly blinded to the real wisdom of God, we can open our hearts to the Holy Spirit to lead and guide our decisions based on the wisdom of God.
