James
3 vs. 13: Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? Let him shew
out a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
Many are wise, but foolish in the sight of GOD. Many are foolish in the sight
of men, but are wise in the sight of GOD. Many brag about being wise, they are
regarded in the bible as fools. I
Corinthians 3 vs. 18 -19: Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you
seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with GOD. For it is written, He
taketh the wise in their own craftiness. It is better to be foolish to the
things of the world, than been wise; and be wise to the things of GOD, than been
foolish. Earthly wisdom is bitter, envying and selfish. The bible said it is
not from above. James 3 vs. 14-16: But
if ye have bitter, envying and strife in your hearts glory not and lie not against
the truth. This wisdom descended not from above, but is earthly, sensual, and
devilish. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil
work.
This wisdom from above, I meant from
GOD is not selfish and not jealous. It is peaceful, loving and courteous. James 3 vs.17: But the wisdom that is from
above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle and easy to be intreated, full of
mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. This same
wisdom rested on the Branch that came forth from a rod out of the stem of
Jesse. No wonder He was not partial. No wonder He wasn’t full of hypocrisy. No
wonder He didn’t judge after the sight of his eyes, nor reproved after the
hearing of his ears. No wonder righteousness girdled his loins and faithfulness
girdled his reins. Isaiah 11 vs. 1-3:
And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall
grow out of his roots. And the Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the
Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit
of knowledge and the fear of the LORD. And shall make him of quick
understanding in the fear of the LORD; and he shall not judge after the sight
of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears. We need the
Spirit of GOD to rest on us; this will produce the Spirit of wisdom and
understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of
the fear of the LORD; provided we can live a righteous and holy live. It
continues tomorrow. It is well with us…
