” Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honor, when thou dost embrace her. She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.”
Prov 4:7-9
True success is a reward for the application of wisdom. Anybody can see problems, but seeing solutions is a different thing altogether. Great Companies or Organisations are founded by men and women who apply themselves to wisdom and understanding. It will take more understanding to build a great organisation. It also takes more understanding to build a great home. When two unwise people come into a partnership or marriage; nothing of value will ever come out. The bible says, “wisdom will promote you.” The key to your promotion in life is walking in wisdom.
There are men and women who speak foolishly even in public. When they open their mouths to speak, they pour out foolishness. They speak things they don’t understand. Being quiet also does not indicate wisdom either. Wise people are problem solvers, they contribute positively to the success of whatever they are involved. Wisdom is a creative ability. Divine wisdom is the creative ability of God at work in man. When divine wisdom is at work in a man, he does things that will lift and bless other men. There are few people who have a vision to help man live victoriously, let your name stand amongst problem solvers. Foolishness creates problems, and wisdom creates solutions. Talking of solutions and providing solutions are not the same. The world is looking for practical thinkers who apply themselves to something that works to improve lives. It doesn’t matter where you are now. If you begin to apply the wisdom of God in all that you do, you will be celebrated in regions afar. I haven’t seen a man of wisdom jobless because wisdom is a creative force. It creates companies . I haven’t seen a wise man or woman who watches African movies for hours daily for fun. I haven’t seen wisdom failing.
Before you speed up to work on anything, apply yourself to wisdom. Wisdom is the principal thing. The word of God in your soul is the wisdom of God. If you want to decorate your life , meditate on the word of God. Fill your heart with the mind of God. Think his thoughts through thinking his word. With wisdom, poverty is defeated. Riches and honor are in the house of the prudent.
