Wisdom Defined

The wisdom from God is the skill to live life according to his plan. It is this wisdom that guides us to make decisions and conduct ourselves in a way that is pleasing to God. His wisdom enables us to navigate and endure life’s trials with calm delight and remain steadfast in the faith. The result of possessing his wisdom is an abundant life that glorifies God.

Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. For the merchandise (profit) of it is better than the merchandise (profit) of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold. She is more precious that rubies; and all things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her. Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour, her ways are of pleasantness, and all her paths are of peace. She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth (hold) her. Proverbs 3:13-18

Wisdom is manifested when knowledge is applied with good judgment, a quality developed by experience. Knowledge comes from the word of God and good judgment is bestowed upon those who seek his will. James tells us that God gives wisdom freely to all who ask in unwavering faith. Read James 1:5-6
