THE WONDERS OF WISDOM chapter 7 episode 1

BY WISDOM A HOUSE IS BUILT

Many people desire a great and successful life but not many apply wisdom in order to get there. It is wisdom that takes you to the great life. Even in the literal world it takes wisdom to build a physical house.

Everyone's life is a building under construction. Everyone is building his life consciously or not. And how well, strong and resilient your life becomes depends on how you build it. If you build by wisdom it will pass the test of time and the storm of life. 

God Himself built the world through wisdom. 
Proverbs 3:19-20 By wisdom the LORD laid the earth’s foundations, by understanding he set the heavens in place; by his knowledge the watery depths were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew.
Everything that God created or made He did by wisdom, knowledge and understanding. These three are relatives. Knowledge is the root, understanding is the illumination or comprehension, and wisdom is the reality of one's knowledge and understanding. Your wisdom reveals your knowledge and understanding. In other words wisdom is expression or practicality of knowledge. When knowledge is in operation it is called wisdom. 

By wisdom God laid the earth’s foundations, by understanding He set the heavens in place; by His knowledge the watery depths were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew.
You find people whose lives have no foundations, nothing set in place in their lives, no separation from the unwanted and their clouds do not let drop dews. Why? Lack of the application of wisdom.

IF YOU WANT TO BUILD YOUR LIFE

Read Proverbs 24:3-4 "By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures."

You don't have to look further to know why some people's lives are not built, not established and not filled with rare and beautiful treasures. The answer is in the above scripture you just read. Wisdom, knowledge and understanding are paramount to living a glorious and successful life.

You should build your life by wisdom; it's imperative. What is wisdom? We did define wisdom earlier in the book. We will define it here again. Wisdom is reality. A man's reality is his wisdom; what he could see and apply in his life is his wisdom. Then we have God's wisdom. God's wisdom is God's reality; what He sees and communicates to us in His Word for us to apply in our lives. God's wisdom is God's Word, and that is the Truth -- the true state of things. 

When people look at your life through human wisdom they see an outward or human state of things but when you look at your life through the wisdom of God you see the true state of things; how things are in your life before God. And that's what matters, and that's the wisdom you should live by.

So build your life by God's wisdom; in the light of how things are before Him; the true state of things, the true reality. It might be said that things doesn't go well where you started your business. But what does God's wisdom say? Joshua 1:3 I will give you every place where you set your foot, as I promised Moses. Deuteronomy 28:12 The LORD will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none.
This is God's wisdom concerning your business and where it is situated. He said to bless you wherever you set your foot (your business) and it doesn't matter what have been said about the place. God's word is the final say. 

Build your life by His Wisdom, be established through His understanding and fill your life with rare and beautiful treasures through His knowledge.
