“But
unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and
the wisdom of God” 1 Cor 1:24
Also
Colossians 2:3 reads thus;
“In
whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge”
Jesus
Christ is both the Wisdom and Power of God according to our opening scripture
to which our second text testifies that He is the custodian of all the
treasures of wisdom and knowledge. Hence for you to live and excellent
Christian life, you have need for wisdom which is Christ. That is why accepting
Christ as Lord and Saviour is not optional for the wise but a necessity.
If
God were to pay you a visit and offers you a blank cheque saying; ask what you
want, you might make the mistake of highlighting all your problems one after
the other if you don’t know that wisdom is the principal thing and it possesses
within its reach the ability to produce anything. For without Him, there is nothing
that was or will be made that would be possible. Hence, with wisdom all things
are possible.
