Daily Devotion 25 March 2015 James 1, 3 Wisdom

March 25, 2015 By Tom Stearns Leave a Comment

Good morning,

Wisdom comes from God. The book of James speaks to this subject.

In Chapter 1, verse 5, James says, “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.”

Chapter 3, verses 13 through 18, tells us about the wise man.

“Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. 14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. 15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. 16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. 17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. 18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

God is looking for men and women of wisdom. People who have wisdom from God are used to teach, train, encourage, and empathize with others who are struggling on their walk with God. They are impact players.

Ask God for His wisdom. Then use what He gives you to help others.

Have a blessed day.
