Growing in Wisdom

 Job 33; 1 Corinthians 1-3

“…we speak of God’s secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began…but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.”

1 Corinthians 2:7, 10

The training institutions of our world offer us the wisdom of this world as accumulated over the ages. We spend time reading, reflecting on, and writing about these ideas, methods, and accomplishments.

How do we learn about God’s wisdom?

Paul says it’s revealed by the Holy Spirit who both knows the mind of God and knows us. Learning to value time in unbroken fellowship with God, in his presence, free from the interference of sin, we experience the privilege of learning wisdom from God. The Holy Spirit’s questions to us unlock insights and new perspectives. The amazing privilege of daily learning wisdom and revelation from the Word and the Spirit is our privilege as sons and daughters of the King. As we spend time in God’s presence learning from his Spirit, we share in God’s glory and are transformed more and more into the image of Christ. That’s more than a library can offer!

“Lord Jesus, teach me your ways that I might walk in your glory.”
