The Wisdom That Comes from the Knowledge of God

Wisdom is the proper handling of knowledge. Many people have knowledge but too much of it can puff us up with pride (1 Corinthians 8:1). The wisdom of God is pure, then peace-loving, gentle, compliant, full of mercy and good fruits, without favoritism and hypocrisy (James 3:17 HCSB). Earthly wisdom is wack. Godly wisdom produces knowledge that is pleasant and easily received. Worldly wisdom has been tainted by this evil world system. Everything has been affected by the sinful nature of mankind. The worldly wisdom is corrupt, always scheming with all the fleshly knowledge accumulated over the years. To get a complete overhaul of the fallen natured thought processing we’re accustomed to, the renewing of our minds with God’s word is vital (Romans 12:2). Otherwise your processing of the knowledge you’ve obtained won’t be true and pure, mostly good for getting over on people opposed to helping them. Godly wisdom wants to help others and obey the commands of the Lord. It was God’s wisdom that presented the plans to create the earth (Proverbs 8:1,23-31). This wisdom from God is ours for the asking.
