THINGS TO NOTE:
1. The Almighty God is the All-Wise God (Rom. 16:27; 1Tim. 1:17; Jude 1:8)
God is the custodian of wisdom; wisdom is in His possession
He is the owner and author of wisdom

2. The wisdom of God is the highest form of wisdom that exists (Jam. 3:15-17; John 3 :31)
No wisdom can match the wisdom of God

3. Existence independent of God is existence in the realm of foolishness (Ps. 14:1, 53:1; Jer. 8:9)

4. Alignment with God equals the attainment of wisdom (Gen. 41:39; 1Kings 4:29; Dan. 1:8, 2:18-20)
It is not possible to be in tune with God and not function in wisdom
Anytime you align with God, you attain His Wisdom

WHAT IS DIVINE WISDOM?
1. Divine wisdom is access to the Word or Voice of God (Jer. 8:9; Ps. 119:98; Col. 3:16; 2Tim. 3:15)
The Light in His Word is the light of wisdom
There is light from Scripture that makes you wiser than you age that makes you handle tough situations and proffer solution
Wisdom resides in the Word of god

2. Divine wisdom is access to supernatural creativity, innovation and inventiveness (Exo. 28:3, 31:1-5, 35:30-33)
Functioning in originality and creativity is functioning in the wisdom of God
It is the kind of wisdom where God ushers you into something that is brand new, never before seen

3. Divine wisdom is access to the mind-set and thought pattern of God (Josh. 1:8; Isa. 55:8-9; Ps. 40:1-3; Isa. 40:31)
It is seeing things the way God sees them
It is thinking the thoughts of God and accessing the mind of God on the issues of life
When you wait on the Lord and His Word, your level shifts and a new song is put in your mouth
You cannot end as a fool if your mind is connected to the mind of the All-Wise God

4. Divine wisdom is access to Divine inspiration and ideas (Job. 32:8, 29:4; 2Tim. 3:15-16)
It is access to the Divine secrets of God
There are new things that God is yet to show to you and it can only come through Divine inspiration

5. Divine wisdom is access to the ways of God (Ps. 103:7; Deut. 34:9; Rom. 11:33)
When you follow the action steps of God and step like Him, you dwell naturally in the realm of wisdom
The wisdom of God is tied to the ways of God
One of the ways of God is order
When your life is in order, whatever you have will be more than enough
Order is the foundation for wonders; it will bring multiplication

6. Divine wisdom is supernatural access to solutions and answers (Gen. 41:33-39; 1Kings 3:3-14, 20-28; John 8:4-11)
Whether it is the solution to issues of your life or your generation, Divine wisdom gives you the answers
Every solution provider is wisdom-embodied, wisdom in motion
Wisdom is not the ‘speakage’ of big grammar; it is in actions that wisdom is confirmed
It is the wisdom of God that will save you in times of crisis
SECRETS OF WISDOM:
1. The fear of God (Job 28:28; Prov. 1:7; Ps. 111:10; Prov. 9:10, 15:33)
The fear of God is a healthy reverence and respect for the Creator
The fear of God is the decision never to take God, His Word, His grace or His mercy for granted
The fear of God makes you cringe from evil, be intolerant and uncomfortable with evil
2. The Spirit of God (Exo. 28:3; Isa. 11:1-3; Exo. 35:30-31; Deut. 34:9)
When you yield yourself to the influence of the Spirit of God, you are yielded to the influence of wisdom
It is not possible to have your own way, mind and decision and still be connected to the wisdom of God
When you don’t take steps carelessly until you are directed by the Spirit, you don’t miss wisdom
When you know how to connect with the Spirit of God at strategic junction of your life, you connect to the Wisdom of God.
