TOPIC: WISDOM FROM ABOVE
TEXT: JAMES 1:5,6
Key Verse: "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him" (James 1:5).
Wisdom is knowledge; it is the quality of being wise. There are two kinds of wisdom - worldly wisdom and godly wisdom.
Worldly wisdom is used by sinners to cheat, steal, tell lies and do all sorts of deceitful and evil things. Godly wisdom on the other hand, is that which you receive from God, it comes from above.
God wants you to avoid the wisdom of the world and receive the wisdom that comes from Him. This can happen as you give your life and time to Him, and pray in faith to receive and live a holy and honest life.
Jesus is the wisdom of God. While the wisdom of the world leads to eternal death and damnation, godly wisdom leads to salvation and eternal life with Jesus in heaven.
Prayer: Oh Lord, give me wisdom from above.
