The true definition and understanding of wisdom have eluded even the brightest minds in today’s world because to know wisdom, you have to know the word of God. Wisdom is simply INSIGHT INTO REALITY and Reality is truth. Jesus said in John 14:6 “…I am the way, THE TRUTH, and the life…” Now, you see why being intellectually sound does make someone wise, because if a man’s concept of reality is outside God, he cannot be wise.

There are three Greek words that mean wisdom in the Bible. Two of them are found in Ephesians 1:8 “Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;” The Greek word translated “wisdom” in the above verse is Sophia which means theoretical wisdom while the Greek word translated “prudence” is Phronesis which means practical wisdom. In Luke 1:17, it is called “the wisdom of the just (righteous)”. It is the highest form of wisdom that causes you act in ways consistent with God’s will, plans and purposes. Apostle John further breaks it down in 3 John 1:3 “walking in the truth” is practical wisdom.

The third one is the Greek word Sunesis which means “mental putting together, perception, or understanding”, is translated as “wise” in 2 Corinthians 10:12. In other words, Sunesis is analytical wisdom. Without it, as a child of God you may reason wrongly and have the wrong interpretation about life.

But thanks be unto God, the scriptures have made it clear that Christ is our wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:30). We therefore have unlimited access to the wisdom of God.

From this month, therefore, understand that you have the responsibility to do the following:

• Increase in Wisdom: God’s Word is the source of wisdom, and you can thus increase in wisdom as you grow in grace and in the knowledge of Lord our Saviour Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18).
• Talk Wisdom: You will speak wisdom as you meditate on God’s word. Also ensure you fellowship with the mature in Christ so that you can talk the right spiritual language. This will bring you to a place of promotion and add more glory to your life (1 Corinthians 2:6-7).
• Refuse to Corrupt Your Wisdom: Sanctify your heart and mind, and your tongue will be sanctified. If you continue to tell lies as a Christian, your wisdom will be corrupted. Never use your tongue for deception. Be honest and reliable.

As a Minister of God, walking in wisdom is very key in your life to manifest honor, glory and absolute prosperity with victories on every side.
