2. James 1:5-6 (MEV)
• 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God,
who gives to all men liberally and without criticism,
and it will be given to him. 6 But let him ask in faith,
without wavering. For he who wavers is like a wave
of the sea, driven and tossed with the wind.

4. James 3:13-16 (NKJV)
• Heavenly Versus Demonic Wisdom
• 13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let
him show by good conduct that his works are
done in the meekness of wisdom. 14 But if you
have bitter envy and [a]self-seeking in your
hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. 15 This
wisdom does not descend from above,
but is earthly, sensual, demonic. 16 For where envy
and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil
thing are there.

5. WISDOM FROM ABOVE
• James 3:13-18 (NKJV)
• 17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure,
then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy
and good fruits, without partiality and without
hypocrisy. 18 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown
in peace by those who make peace.

go.
• Wisdom is manifested
by action.

10. God’s Wisdom in action
• Philippians 2:13 (NKJV)
• 13 for it is God who works in you both to will and to
do for His good pleasure.

pleasure

cause people to make
wrong choices

14. Proverbs 3:15-17 (NKJV)

than rubies, And all the
things you may desire
cannot compare with her.
16 Length of days is in her
right hand, In her left hand
riches and honor. 17 Her
ways are ways of
pleasantness, And all her
paths are peace.
• WOW,
• WOW,
• WOW,
• I’m speechless.

have not activated that God’s
given Wisdom.

15. We need the Spirit of Wisdom functioning
in our lives

16. Proverbs 3:13-14 (NKJV)
• 13 Happy is the
man who finds wisdom,
And the man who gains
understanding;
14 For her proceeds
are better than the
profits of silver, And her
gain than fine gold.
• King Solomon, the wisest
man that existed before
Jesus, values wisdom very
highly.

17. JESUS CHRIST IS OUR
WISDOM

18. IN JESUS ARE ALL
THE TREASURES OF WISDOM
• 1 Corinthians 1:3 (NKJV)
• 30 But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us
wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and
redemption—
• Colossians 2:3 (NKJV)
• 3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and
knowledge.

19. DIG OUT THOSE TREASURES
• Proverbs 25:2 (NKJV)
• 2 It is the glory of God to
conceal a matter,
But the glory of kings is to
search out a matter.
• Remember, we are kings.
• We are from the family of
God, we are not from the
world.
• God has hidden these
treasures from the world, but
to us he has given us the
anointing of the Holy Spirit,
then Wisdom help us to find
these treasures.

20. WISDOM CAN BE
NOTICED BY OUR
JUDGEMENTS

• 3 His delight is in the fear of
the LORD,
And He shall not judge by
the sight of His eyes,
Nor decide by the hearing
of His ears;

21. KING’S SOLOMOS WISDOM
• The Bible says that King
Solomon was the wiser
person in the world before the
coming of Christ.
• Look at this, He was the wiser
man and he didn’t have
Christ!
• We are called to exercise
that same type of Wisdom.
• We have Christ in us who
became for us wisdom from
God.
• We have in Him, hidden in
us all the treasures of
wisdom and knowledge.

22. We should keep doing the prayer that Paul
did for the early followers of Christ
• Ephesians 1:17 New King James Version (NKJV)
• 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may
give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge
of Him,
