THE
WISDOM OF GOD
MEMORISE
O
the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how
unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
Romans 11:33
READ
1 Corinthians 1:20-25
20 Where is
the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not
God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
21 For after
that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by
the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
22 For the
Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
23 But we
preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks
foolishness;
24 But unto
them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the
wisdom of God.
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness
of God is stronger than men.
MESSAGE
Whenever God decides to reveal deep things about
Himself to anyone, the human response is always that of unspeakable awesome
surprise. Paul caught some revelations of God and exclaimed in Romans 11:33a
that:
“O
the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!”
This is the cry of someone who has seen beyond the
physical realm; obviously God had shown him a little glimpse of the depth of
His knowledge and wisdom. The Psalmist in Psalm 139:6 also experienced this and
submitted in absolute wonder saying:
“Such
knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.”
It is therefore not surprising that the greatest
minds among the scientists and philosophers of this world are incompetent to
discern, assess, or comprehend the knowledge and wisdom of God.
“For
after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased
God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.”
1 Corinthians 1:21
Because the all-knowing God is also the Creator of
the heavens and earth, He knows that the human thinking faculty is not designed
to understand spiritual matters and therefore cannot comprehend the knowledge
and wisdom of a God who is Spirit. In essence, human logic, reasoning, science,
and philosophy are grossly inadequate to bring man to the saving knowledge of
an immortal, invisible, omnipotent and omniscient God. But glory be to God,
because it pleased Him that by the foolishness of the message of the gospel of
Jesus Christ, anyone that believes would receive the power of salvation and
intimacy with God.
Nevertheless, the Bible in Matthew 11:19 tells us
that wisdom has children, and the wisdom of those children begins with the fear
of the Lord (Psalm 111:10). They are also known to reject the wisdom of this
world, according to 2 Corinthians 1:12. As children of wisdom, they accept
Jesus Christ the Son of the living God as the Wisdom of God and as Lord and
Saviour. I therefore invite you to join the children of wisdom today by
dedicating your life to Jesus and accepting Him as your Lord and Saviour. Taste
and see that the Lord is good. Once you surrender your life to Him, He will
begin to make all things work out for your good.
