As I was preparing for the Christmas Eve event, I thought about the Wise Men who sought Jesus. They were wise because they sought the Baby Jesus, traveling many miles over many days and nights.
Webster says the meaning of WISE is “characterized by wisdom, marked by deep understanding, keen discernment, and a capacity for sound judgment.”
Scripture gives many scriptures on WISDOM. (being Wise) Some of which are:
James 1:5 “If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you."
James 3:17 “But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure, then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere."
Proverbs 3: 13 “Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding.”
Proverbs 1:7 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction."
I desire to be wise. I desire wisdom. So how do I get it?
W- ise relates to gaining wisdom from God
I – nsight comes from God
S- eek God first
E- nter into a faithful relationship with God
