Wisdom. [1 Kings 3 v 5-12 ]

One of the things we need each day is wisdom ,there are issues and situation that face us daily, decisions,we have to make, the Bible has a whole book devoted to the subject of wisdom, Proverbs. It is so easy to be like a bull in a china shop, we blunder in, act unwisely,it is in the book of James we have a number of important truths taught about wisdom. In chapter 3 v14-17,he describes two types of wisdom, one is earthly, the other is from above [Heavenly]. The earthly wisdom is evidenced by, bitterness,strife, sensuality,and devilishness. The wisdom from above is evidenced by purity,peaceableness,gentleness,a willingness to yield to others,is merciful,full of good deeds,treats people with equality, and is sincere. We can recieve the wisdom that is from above by simple asking for it from God,[ James 1v5], ask and you shall recieve. [ Dear God grant us the wisdom that is from above in Jesus name Amen ]
