Wisdom in today’s world has become for many, indistinguishable from knowledge. What so many don’t realize, is that wisdom and knowledge are two different things. So often, what we are told is wisdom is in truth, simply an opinion. There is a big difference between knowledge and wisdom.
Without true wisdom, one can never properly put the knowledge they have gained to good use. Knowledge that doesn’t take shape in deeds that don’t apply life is just plain trivia. If you can’t apply what you learned, then it’s just knowledge for knowledge sake.
I am of the opinion that it is every Christian’s duty to know and understand Gods’ Word, and have a good understanding of the world we live in. If we pray for wisdom, God will grant us the wisdom and knowledge we need to know the truth. Then we will be able to properly rule the world we live in. Both Solomon and James tells us where wisdom comes from,
“””The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.”””
(Prover 9:10)
“””If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.”””
(James 1:5)
Unfortunately, we are often times ruled by evil men and women who despise God. They think they have gained the knowledge needed to rule us, but they lack the wisdom needed to use that knowledge properly. Thus they have been educated beyond their intelligence. They ignore historical evidences because those results do not match their preconceived ideas which are fed to them by others with no wisdom. These individuals spend their life gaining useless knowledge while ignoring facts and figures that do not fit into the limited understanding of facts they themselves refused to enter their brains.
This is a direct reflection of their refusal to accept Jesus as their LORD and Savior, and thus they will never approach GOD, and pray to HIM for wisdom and understanding. These are the most dangerous individuals in society, because they use their limited knowledge to convince others, who have even less knowledge, to put them in charge of doing things they claim they know all about.
This has resulted in a world that is led by the desires of Satan, and the ruin of societies the world over. Thus we are on the brink of world wide destruction, which is what Jesus warned us of when he told us,
“””And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man”””
(Luke 17:26)
Lord Jesus, come quickly,
Amen
