Wisdom

Mo. 10/1/12: Job 28:12, 15, 19 – 20                  Where is wisdom?

      “But where can wisdom be found?

      And where is the place of understanding?

      It cannot be purchased for gold,

      Nor can silver be weighed for its price.

      The topaz of Ethiopia cannot equal it,

      Nor can it be valued in pure gold.

      “From where then does wisdom come?

      And where is the place of understanding?

Where is wisdom? Wisdom cannot be found nor purchased for any price.

Tu. 10/2/12: Job 28:27 – 28                  What is wisdom?

      Then He (God) saw wisdom and declared it;

      He prepared it, indeed, He searched it out.

      And to man He said,

      ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom,

      And to depart from evil is understanding.’

What is wisdom? Wisdom is the fear of the Lord.

We. 10/3/12: Psalm 90:10, 12                  How can we become wise?

      The days of our lives are seventy years;

      And if by reason of strength they are eighty years,

      Yet their boast is only labor and sorrow;

      So teach us to number our days,

      That we may gain a heart of wisdom.

How can we become wise? Seeing death gives us a heart of wisdom.

Th. 10/4/12: Proverbs 2:10 – 11                  What is wisdom’s gift?

      When wisdom enters your heart,

      And knowledge is pleasant to your soul,

      Discretion will preserve you;

      Understanding will keep you

What is wisdom’s gift? Wisdom preserves us.

Fr. 10/5/12: Colossians 2:2 – 3                  Where is wisdom hidden?

that their (the church of Laodicea’s) hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

Where is wisdom hidden? Wisdom is a treasure hidden in Christ!
