God Supplies Wisdom

The unspiritual man simply cannot accept the matters which the Spirit deals with — they just don’t make sense to him, for, after all, you must be spiritual to see spiritual things. The spiritual man, on the other hand, has an insight into the meaning of everything, though his insight may baffle the man of the world. This is because the former [the spiritual man] is sharing in God’s wisdom (1 Corinthians 2:14-15 Phillips).

In Christ Jesus, my Lord, are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge (Colossians 2:3). This wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure, then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial, and sincere (James 3:17).

When I lack wisdom, I ask God, my Father, who gives generously and graciously to all without finding fault, and it is given to me (James 1:5). Lord God, You promised that when I call to You, You will answer me and tell me great and unsearchable things I do not know (Jeremiah 33:3). The Lord turns all my darkness into light (Psalm 18:28).

The Holy Spirit abides in me and teaches me all things, and will remind me of all things (John 14:26) that Jesus told us and taught us. So I profess my memory is as strong as it ever was, and even better, thanks to the Holy Spirit living in me.

I have the mind of Christ Jesus (1 Corinthians 2:16). He is my wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:30). I hold the thoughts and purposes of Jesus’ heart in my heart. I make my attitude the same as that of Christ Jesus (Philippians 2:5). I am being renewed in the attitude of my mind, and I put on the new self, created to be like You, Lord Jesus, in true righteousness and holiness [and forgiveness and love] (Ephesians 4:23-24).

I put on the new self, which is constantly being renewed in knowledge according to the image of my Creator (Colossians 3:10). I let the Word of Christ Jesus dwell in me richly as I teach and admonish others with all wisdom from God, and as I sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in my heart to my God and Father (Colossians 3:16).

I have prayed that my glorious Father would give me a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, and that the eyes of my understanding may be enlightened so I may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the glorious riches of my inheritance among the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of His power to me because I believe (Ephesians 1:17-19). I have asked and am being filled with the knowledge of the Lord’s will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding (Colossians 1:9).
