Begin With Jesus

... God understands the way to wisdom, and he knows its location.... The fear of the Lord -- that is wisdom, and to turn from evil is understanding.... No wisdom, no understanding, and no counsel will prevail against the Yahweh. - Job 28:23,28; Proverbs 21:30

What is the "way to wisdom" and where can a person find it?

The way to wisdom is only found in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, the Son of God our Father. The Holy Spirit teaches us His truth and makes us truly wise in every endeavor. In fact, all "pretenders" are soon vanquished when they come against God's transcendent wisdom, understanding, and counsel.

It is essential I understand as a child of God, that any wisdom, understanding, and counsel must originate with the Lord, or it is truly useless. No matter the means by which wisdom is gained (experience, teaching, counsel, etc.) it must be checked by the overarching wisdom of an omniscient Creator.

Where do you go for wisdom these days? Begin with Jesus.

You must turn from evil if you really want wisdom. Humbling yourself, admitting your need, confessing your lack, and asking God to help you. - Pritchard
