the gift of wisdom
Dr. Roberto Miranda(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY:
In First Corinthians, Chapter 12, the Apostle Paul talks about the diversity of gifts of the Holy Spirit and how they are all part of one concerted body, with Christ Jesus as the head. He points out that although there are many gifts, the spirit behind them is the same. Paul lists nine supernatural gifts that God has put into manifestation in his church, but he was not being exhaustive in the list. The word of wisdom is a gift that allows a person to understand the complexities of life in a supernatural way, find solutions to problems and have a deep understanding of the mysteries of human life and the things of God. Solomon is an example of a person who received an extremely powerful gift of wisdom in the Bible.
The Bible mentions two people who received a powerful gift of wisdom - Solomon and Daniel. Wisdom is a supernatural gift that allows a person to solve problems in life in a divinely given way. The gift of wisdom is needed in the church to navigate this time in history. The gift of knowledge is closely related to the gift of wisdom and has to do with specific matters, such as executing tasks. God gifts people with knowledge to fulfill specific tasks that he entrusts to them. The church needs both the gift of wisdom and the gift of knowledge to function effectively. We should pray for God to unleash these gifts in us and develop them through exercise, study, prayer, and fasting.
The author believes that God gifts people with specific abilities and talents, and when those gifts are recognized and dedicated to God, they can manifest in powerful and supernatural ways. He gives examples of individuals in history who were gifted in various areas, such as Bach in music and Besaleel and Oholiab in building. The author encourages his readers to ask for and receive the gift of knowledge and wisdom from God, which can be used to solve problems in various areas of life. He also emphasizes the importance of giving glory to God for any gifts or accomplishments.Let's meditate on the word of the Lord for a little while. Look up First Corinthians, Chapter 12, we don't forget. We're talking about the gifts of the Holy Spirit, remember?
Last Sunday in the 9 o'clock service we talked about the diversity of the gifts, the complementarity of the gifts, the fact that God has made the body something complementary, the body of Jesus Christ. The Bible sees this community, this congregation as a body and one is a finger, another is a part of the brain, another is an ear, an ear, another is a mouth, another is a hand, but we are all part of one concerted body. whose head is who? Christ Jesus, right?
