The Bible is full of wisdom. Обаче, this wisdom is not the wisdom of this world, but the wisdom of God. When you are born again and walk after the Spirit, in His Kingdom, you should also fill yourself with His wisdom. As already mentioned is God’s wisdom not the wisdom of this world. God’s wisdom is the opposite of the wisdom of this world. The two cannot go together. No matter what people say or do. Because the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God and the wisdom of God is foolishness to the world (1 Col 3:19).
Book of wisdom
There’s one book in particular in the Bible, which is full of the wisdom of God. It is also called the book of wisdom, namely: the book Proverbs.
In this book of wisdom, you will find all the wisdom you need, for your daily life.
As Новото творение, you have received the Holy Spirit. He is the Spirit of wisdom, and He will teach and guide you into all truth.
As long as your mind is not renewed with the Word of God, you shall think like the world (system) and therefore walk like the world. As long as you mind stays carnal, then your carnal way of thinking and reasoning will stop the work of the Spirit of God. The work of the Holy Spirit will not only be stopped in your life, but in the lives of others as well.
That’s why it’s important to renew your mind with God’s Word and meditate on His words, day and night.
Advice for your everyday life
The book of Proverbs provides God’s people His detailed instructions, to deal with the practical affairs in everyday life. It teaches you, how to relate to God, parents, your spouse, children, neighbours, government, и така нататък.
Purpose of the book of Proverbs
In the first seven verses of Proverbs, you read the purpose of the book of Proverbs. Let’s have a lok at the first four verses.
The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel. To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity; To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion (Prov 1:1-4)
The book of Proverbs is meant to gain wisdom and instruction for your daily life. When you apply the instructions to your daily life, you will walk in the wisdom and knowledge of God.
It is meant to:
- Know wisdom and instruction
- Perceive (distinguish, understand) the words of understanding
- Receive (accept, get, win) the instruction of wisdom, justice, judgment, and equity
- Give (apply, bring forth, add) subtilty (discretion, prudence, wisdom) to the simple, and to the young man knowledge and discretion.
Instead of walking according to the worldly standards and wisdom, and walk and behave like the world, you will gain insights from God. When you apply His advice and His words into your life, you will live according to His standards and walk as a son of God.
