TOPIC: THE IMPORTANCE OF WISDOM
…if you must be in the palace and not in the bush, you need wisdom.
SCRIPTURE: If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct. Ecclesiastes 10:10.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: …if you must be in the palace and not in the bush, you need wisdom.
Our anchor Scripture showcases the importance of wisdom to life – wisdom is profitable to direct or order the business of life. It is therefore, important to understand the necessity of wisdom to successful living.
Now, there are three things to note about wisdom from Scriptures:
1. Wisdom is very critical for profitable, gainful, and successful living (Ecclesiastes 10:10).
Wisdom is profitable. To live a life that profits you, to live a life that is gainful, to live a life that is successful, wisdom is needed.
2. Wisdom is very critical for outstanding and distinguished living.
A man’s wisdom makes him outstanding; a man’s wisdom makes his face to shine.
Ecclesiastes 8:1 says, Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a man's wisdom maketh his face to shine, and the boldness of his face shall be changed.
Wisdom is needed to be outstanding in life. Wisdom makes your face to shine in life.
3. Wisdom is very critical for royal or palatial existence (Prov. 8:15).
Wisdom takes you to the palace. Concerning wisdom, Proverbs 8:15says: “By me kings reign, and princes decree justice”.
Beloved, if you must see gain and not losses; if you must stand out and not die under; if you must be in the palace and not in the bush, you need wisdom.
Remember this: …if you must be in the palace and not in the bush, you need wisdom.
