“His Wisdom-A Gushing Stream”

 

 

 

 

Wellspring of Wisdom

 

by Dona Hake

 

What a wonderful thing that God’s wisdom is.  Yesterday I shared with you about the power of one word.   Our loving Lord’s wisdom will help us to speak those perfect words that are timely and they will minister grace to the hearer.  As we seek the Lord first before any task, and ask Him for His sweet wisdom we can know that we are doing the right thing and it is in accordance with His will.  Today let us meditate on how wonderful it is that godly wisdom is as a spring, a gushing stream with life giving power!  As you draw upon it, it will flow to you and from you to others.

 

Wisdom may be in one word or it may be in a deed.   Sometimes the Lord’s wisdom may call upon us to  just be silent.    He will make a perfect place and time for you to speak the words that He desires to order to proceed from your mouth. We can probably all testify of times that words have been spoken to us apart from His wisdom.  Those words can hurt you, leave scars and divide the closest of relationships.

 

Proverbs 18:4 (AMP)

“The words of a [discreet and wise] man’s mouth are like deep waters [plenteous and difficult to fathom], and the fountain of skillful and godly Wisdom is like a gushing stream [sparkling, fresh, pure, and life-giving].”

 

The wisdom of God will always be full of peace, easy to be entreated and without hypocrisy.  Wisdom will always be in line with the truths of God’s Word, and there is no wavering in the words or actions of wisdom.  Let us seek to be vessels of those that speak His wisdom offering words and actions that are life giving and pure.  God bless you!
