James 1:5
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of GOD who giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not, and it shall be given him.
PRAYER BRINGS GOD'S WISDOM
To ask of GOD, is another way of saying "prayer". When we ask GOD for wisdom, we are praying to the source of wisdom and GOD answers our prayer with abundance. In the scripture, there is the story of Solomon. When he became King of Israel, he prayed for wisdom and the LORD not only gave him wisdom to govern the Children of GOD, but He gave Solomon everything he did not ask for: riches, fame, and long life.(1Kings 3:5-14).
In the many situations of our life, we need wisdom. Oftentimes, we seek the wisdom of other people and forget to ask the only One who can give wisdom, GOD alone. The wisdom of people is partial, at best, they can only speculate. If you follow their lead, you will have only partial success, however, if you ask GOD for wisdom in a matter, you can expect total wisdom on the matter and abundant success. I don't know about you, but I want total success that will last a life time. So, PRAY FOR WISDOM.
THE FOOLISHNESS OF GOD IS WISER THAN MAN; AND THE WEAKNESS OF GOD IS STRONGER THAN MAN (1 Corinthians 1:25)
