Another reason that the priests could not access the Wisdom of God was that they were not seeking it. They didn’t desire it. One man said, what you do not desire you do not deserve. Proverbs 18:1, “Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.” The religious leaders thought they knew it all. Remember, the priests were living a little better, but they were sinners like everyone else. And their pride and arrogance blocked the Wisdom of God.

A second reason the priests couldn’t get the Wisdom of Jesus is because of pride. They had the Torah (knowledge). They were life-long dedicated students and teacher of the book for understanding, but they couldn’t put knowledge and understanding together and get wisdom. Pride in our education or our own ability or our intelligence will sometimes negate the Wisdom of God. That is why Jesus said that we need to become “like a little child” willing to listen and be taught.

As a 12 year old, Jesus astounded the temple teachers and priests. Why couldn’t the priests get Jesus; wisdom? Because they could have if they hadn’t been trying to build THEIR OWN kingdom. When you are trying to build your own kingdom, you negate the wisdom of God. We cannot get the wisdom of God operating in selfishness and wrong motives, the wisdom of God works on love!

Favor will cause people to change policies and rules on your behalf without regard for their own welfare. The life of Jesus illustrates that wisdom and favor go together. Luke 2:52, “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.” Remember that when Jesus was only around 12 years old, His Wisdom astounded the temple teachers and priests.

In Kings, chapter 10, the Queen of Sheba came to visit Solomon, with a very great train of spices, and hundred and twenty talents of gold, and precious stones. “………she communed with him of all that was i her heart. And Solomon told her all her questions: there was not any thing hid from the king, which he told her not.” (verses 2-3). What was the Queen doing? She was coming to Solomon with her government’s problems. And he was giving her the answers. I think you would agree that our government could sure use the Wisdom of God!

The story of Queen Esther is another example of when the wisdom of God brought honor. Queen Esther was by God to save her people, a woman “chosen for such a time as this.” When alerted of Haman’s plan to kill the Jews in her kingdom, Esther went against royal protocol and entered into the king’s court unannounced. The king (because of God’s favor) pointed his scepter at her and allowed her to enter. With wisdom, Esther invited the king to a banquet (Esther 5:2,4). She didn’t enter his presence “bad-mouthing” Haman. Not, that would not have been godly wisdom. Instead, wisdom said, “Please come to dinner.”

Genesis 41:37-42, “And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants, Can we find such as one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is? And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art: Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled; only in the throne will I be greater than thou, And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt. And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck.” Notice that God’s wisdom brings you to honor (Proverbs 8:18).

God has given us unlimited access to His Wisdom, to provide solutions and direction to any situation or circumstance that we face. In the book of Genisis, chapter 41, Pharaoh had a dream and he didn’t know what he dreamed or what it meant. He was told about a man in prison (Joseph) who could interpret dreams, “Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brough him hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved himself, and change his rainment, and came in unto Pharaoh. And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it: and I have heard say of thee, that thou canst understand a dream to interpret it.” (Vss. 14-15). Then, Joseph told him the dream and the interpretation.

Daniel receive honor and got promoted by the king. At one time they tried to kill Daniel by putting him in a lion’s den. But Daniel survived…he had length of days by operating in wisdom. When you are where God has placed you, or whatever assignment He has given you, the wisdom of God and might are what you will need to go forward. Learn to rely on the voice of God and His wisdom. Reminder, you can access God’s wisdom by:

1. MEDITATING ON HIS WORD. 2. ASKING GOD IN FAITH. 3. PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT. 4. BY THE LAYING ON OF HANDS.
