Heavenly
Wisdom
‘’But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then
peaceable, gentle, and easy to be treated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and
without hypocrisy.’' James 3:17
The scripture has confirmed the wisdom of God being pure and peaceable; but the problem of so many due to their impatience and lack of the will of God considered
themselves wise; they aspire to acquire material things against the will of God. The
scripture has made us to understand that there are three kinds of wisdom; which
are the heavenly wisdom, the earthly wisdom and the satanic wisdom. As children of the Most
High we are not to covet the earthly wisdom because it is perishable and it
is against Gods will. The scripture has described those who covet such wisdom (earthly
wisdom) as those of selfish and evil ambitions (James3:16) ‘’ for where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every
evil work.’’
The heavenly wisdom is of the will of God;
those that aren’t led by His will are considered unwise (Ephesians 5:17) ‘’wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will
of the lord is.’’ To
experience the heavenly wisdom we
must endeavor to be led by His will; not by our selfish ambitions.
Conclusion
Every believer must be
submissive to be led by the will of God if they thirst for the wisdom from
above.
