GOD's WISDOM

 

The LORD JESUS said:

Matthew 22:29

King James Version

29 Jesus answered and said unto them, 

Ye do err, 

not knowing the scriptures, 

nor the power of God.


Have we any idea, GOD's wisdom?

Why do we continue about our fallible ways, when GOD's wisdom is above all?

Scripture CELEBRATES the LORD's wisdom:

Job 12:9-10

King James Version

9 Who knoweth not in all these 

that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this?

10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, 

and the breath of all mankind.

and in length of days understanding.

13 With him is wisdom and strength, 

he hath counsel and understanding.

16 With him is strength and wisdom: 

the deceived and the deceiver are his.


Psalm 19:7-8

converting the soul: 

the testimony of the Lord is sure, 

making wise the simple.

rejoicing the heart: 

the commandment of the Lord is pure, 

enlightening the eyes.

how manifold are thy works! 

in wisdom hast thou made them all: 

the earth is full of thy riches.

by understanding hath he established the heavens.

and the clouds drop down the dew.


Proverbs 8:22-30

King James Version

22 The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, 

before his works of old.

23 I was set up from everlasting, 

from the beginning, 

or ever the earth was.

24 When there were no depths, 

I was brought forth; 

when there were no fountains abounding with water.

25 Before the mountains were settled, 

before the hills was I brought forth:

26 While as yet he had not made the earth, 

nor the fields, 

nor the highest part of the dust of the world.

27 When he prepared the heavens, 

I was there: 

when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:

28 When he established the clouds above: 

when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:

29 When he gave to the sea his decree, 

that the waters should not pass his commandment: 

when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

30 Then I was by him, 

as one brought up with him: 

and I was daily his delight, 

rejoicing always before him;


Isaiah 40:28

King James Version

28 Hast thou not known? 

hast thou not heard, 

that the everlasting God, 

the Lord, 

the Creator of the ends of the earth, 

fainteth not, 

neither is weary? 

there is no searching of his understanding.


Isaiah 55:8-9

King James Version

8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, 

neither are your ways my ways, 

saith the Lord.

9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, 

so are my ways higher than your ways,

 and my thoughts than your thoughts.


Daniel 2:19-23

King James Version

19 Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel 

in a night vision.

Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.

20 Daniel answered and said, 

Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: 

for wisdom and might are his:

21 And he changeth the times and the seasons: 

he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: 

he giveth wisdom unto the wise, 

and knowledge to them that know understanding:

22 He revealeth the deep and secret things: 

he knoweth what is in the darkness, 

and the light dwelleth with him.

23 I thank thee, and praise thee, 

O thou God of my fathers, 

who hast given me wisdom and might, 

and hast made known unto me now 

what we desired of thee: 

for thou hast now made known unto us the king's matter.

be glory through Jesus Christ for ever.

and the weakness of God is stronger than men.


1 Corinthians 1:27-31

King James Version

27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world 

to confound the wise; 

and God hath chosen the weak things of the world 

to confound the things which are mighty;

28 And base things of the world, 

and things which are despised, 

hath God chosen, 

yea, and things which are not, 

to bring to nought things that are:

29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, 

who of God is made unto us wisdom, 

and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

31 That, 

according as it is written, 

He that glorieth, 

let him glory in the Lord.


1 Corinthians 2:7-8

King James Version

7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, 

even the hidden wisdom, 

which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: 

for had they known it, 

they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.


Colossians 2:2-3

King James Version

2 That their hearts might be comforted, 

being knit together in love, 

and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, 

to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God,

and of Christ;

3 In whom are hid 

all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.


James 3:17

without partiality, 

and without hypocrisy.

through the knowledge of God, 

and of Jesus our Lord,

3 According as his divine power hath given unto us 

all things that pertain unto life and godliness, 

through the knowledge of him 

that hath called us to glory and virtue:


Revelation 5:11-14

King James Version

11 And I beheld, 

and I heard the voice of many angels 

round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: 

and the number of them 

was ten thousand times ten thousand, 

and thousands of thousands;

12 Saying with a loud voice, 

Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, 

and riches, and wisdom, and strength, 

and honour, and glory, and blessing.

13 And every creature which is in heaven, 

and on the earth, 

and under the earth, 

and such as are in the sea, 

and all that are in them, 

heard I saying, 

Blessing, and honour, 

and glory, and power, 

be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, 

and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

14 And the four beasts said, Amen. 

And the four and twenty elders fell down 

and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
