Psalm 103 tells us to not forget the benefits of the Lord. One of the greatest benefits of knowing Jesus is godly wisdom. When you receive Jesus, you receive wisdom. However, you must learn to draw upon that wisdom in order for it to help you. Wisdom will help you in so many areas, including your finances, your health, your family, your business or profession, and more. Enjoy this message on video or audio and be encouraged that wisdom belongs to you, in Jesus’ name.

Notes: WISDOM—A GOSPEL BENEFIT

But because of Him you are in Christ Jesus, whom God made unto us wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. (1Corinthians 1:30, MEV).

MT: When you receive Jesus, you receive the wisdom of God, which comes by the Holy Spirit.

One of the ways He redeems your life from destruction is through wisdom. 

Benefits of Wisdom: Avoid mistakes and their consequences, understanding of truth and how to apply it (finances, relationships, physical, mental, and emotional health), how-to anything, guidance). Paul prayed for the church to have a “spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him.”

God gives us wisdom to apply knowlege for success in the Christian life. 

I. He Saves by the Foolishness of Preaching 1 Corinthians 1:18

II. Not by the Wisdom of Man 1 Corinthians 2:1-5

Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall not enter it.” (Mark 10:15, MEV).

For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy. For I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve through his trickery, so your minds might be led astray from the simplicity that is in Christ. (2Corinthians 11:2-3, MEV).

Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this world, let him become a fool that he may be wise. (1Corinthians 3:18, MEV).

III. The Wisdom of God Comes by the Holy Spirit 1 Corinthians 2:6-16

Mystery—something hidden to the unitiated. 2 Cor. 4:  If our gospel be hid …

John 3:3 Except you be born again, you cannot see.

The Holy Spirit is Your Teacher

But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things. (1John 2:20, MEV).

Conclusion: Come to Jesus and Receive Wisdom (Jn 1:12)
