About this listen

Sis. Sarah shares with us that wisdom is the principal thing for the believer’s life. Unlike mere knowledge, wisdom aligns our daily decisions with God’s will. Through Solomon’s example in 1 Kings 3 and the commands of Proverbs 4, we learn that wisdom begins with humility, is received through asking God, and is evidenced by godly living. True wisdom produces stability, discernment, peace, and spiritual direction, enabling us to walk in God’s path in a confusing world.

3 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  1. Wisdom is God’s will, not man’s reasoning. Knowledge may inform you, but wisdom directs your steps in alignment with God.
  2. Wisdom begins with humility and is received by asking. Like Solomon, we must recognize our need and seek wisdom from God, not from the flesh or culture.

  3. True wisdom is seen in a transformed life. God’s wisdom produces peace, purity, discernment, and righteous decisions — not confusion, pride, or strife.
