According to the Bible, wisdom is always God-oriented and practical. Wisdom is the right use of one’s knowledge, insight, and skill to the glory of God. It originates in the fear of the Lord (Proverbs 1:7). So, the Word defines wisdom in terms of our relationship with God rather than formal education or achievements from men. Worldly wisdom is knowledge apart from divine revelation and is often God-opposing in nature. The ordering of one’s life by God given guidance is true wisdom.

Relationship begins with God – who is three Persons in one (God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit). The Father is in perfect union with Himself; and as we imitate Him, we also come into relationship with the three Persons of the Godhead. All that we learn from Him can be applied to our interactions with those entrusted to us.
