"Wisdom Is a Gift"

ЁЯНТ "Wisdom Is a Gift" ЁЯНТ

“In this way they will know God’s secret, which is Christ himself. He is the key that opens all the hidden treasures of God’s wisdom and knowledge” (Colossians 2:2-3 GNT).

ЁЯСЙ "How do you get wisdom? Do you just decide one day that you’re going to muster up the wisdom you need? Do you make a New Year’s resolution to be wise? No!"

ЁЯСЙ This is the difference between knowledge and wisdom: 
☆ Knowledge comes from education.
☆ Wisdom comes from God.

☆ To get knowledge, you look around.
☆ To get wisdom, you look up.

☆ Knowledge comes from reason.
☆ Wisdom comes from revelation. 

☆ Knowledge is something you learn.              
☆ Wisdom is a gift.

ЁЯСЙ "James 1:5 says,  “If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God” (NIV). 

"Wisdom is a gift from God. And he is a generous God. He loves to give gifts to his children. All you have to do is ask!"
The Bible says in Colossians 2:2-3, “In this way they will know God’s secret, which is Christ himself. He is the key that opens all the hidden treasures of God’s wisdom and knowledge” (GNT).

"It’s all wrapped up in a person, Jesus Christ. If you want God’s wisdom, you need to get Jesus in your life. You need to invite him into your life and say," 
ЁЯСЙ “Jesus, help people through my hands. Love people with my heart. And put your wisdom in my mind.”

ЁЯСЙ "The first step is to accept salvation through Jesus Christ and invite him into your life. Then, day by day, you continually ask him for wisdom, you make reading God’s Word a priority, and you stay in fellowship with other Christians. Why? Because as iron sharpens iron, a wise friend sharpens another friend. People are wise by the company they keep."
