Open Heaven 9 December 2024 Monday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – Godly Wisdom Vs. Worldly Wisdom

Open Heaven 9 December 2024 TOPIC: Godly Wisdom Vs. Worldly Wisdom

MEMORISE: “For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.” – 1 Corinthians 3:19 (KJV)

READ: 1 Corinthians 1:25-29 (KJV)

25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Philippians 1-4

Open Heaven 9 December 2024 MESSAGE

“Wisdom strengtheneth the wise more than ten mighty men which are in the city.” Ecclesiastes 7:19

The Scripture above tells us that a wise man can be stronger than ten mighty men put together. Therefore, one can say that having wisdom is a very good thing.

In 1 Corinthians 1:20, the Bible says:

“Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?”

From the Scripture above, we know that there is something called ‘the wisdom of this world’, and that God can turn this wisdom into foolishness. However, the question is, what is the wisdom of this world?

The wisdom of this world is any kind of wisdom that is not of God. In other words, any kind of wisdom that does not agree with the word of God is the wisdom of this world. It may seem good and also seem to yield temporary results, but if it is not of God, it will eventually become foolishness. In the same Scripture that was quoted above, the Bible tells us that when the wisdom of this world was turned into foolishness, the wise men of the world were nowhere to be found. They could no longer make a case for their kind of wisdom.

Some people are boasting now, arguing that their kind of wisdom is the best because it appears to be yielding results for them, either in helping them to make money, or to get into positions of power and so on. However, because their wisdom is not based on the word of God, a time is coming when they will hide their faces in shame because it will be made foolishness.

Beloved, do not be moved by the methods and recommendations of men, even though they might seem very logical. If their recommendations are not based on what the word of God says, they are foolishness, and you should not partake of such. The Lord has superior wisdom for you, and He said that you only need to ask in order to get it (James 1:5). When you begin to use His wisdom, you may seem foolish at first to the people who are using the wisdom of the world, but I tell you from experience, sooner or later, you will have excellent results. Better still, your results will endure, and you will keep on excelling, long after the so-called results of the people who relied on the wisdom of the world have been forgotten.
