Wisdom can be seen as good sense and judgement based mostly on one’s experience. The book of proverbs is very important in the history of man because throughout this book emphasis was laid on wisdom. According to proverbs 3:15 “Wisdom is worth more than fine jewels. Nothing you desire has more.”
In wisdom is pleasure and all her paths are peace.
Wisdom is a tree for everyone that longs
to have and retain it. God anchored the earth by wisdom and by understanding He
established the heavens.
Wisdom the foundation of wealth; Wealth is considered as possession and one can
only excel where he or she has subdued and dominated. Riches is surrounded or
can be said to be an embodiment of wisdom. The Bible stated it clearly in the
book of proverbs that money is a defence and wisdom is also a defence, the
credit to wisdom is that wisdom gives understanding.
Wisdom the secret of greatness; Greatness constitutes of
success, hard work, capability, diligence and actualization of one’s dream.
Greatness in life has its bedrock on wisdom, one cannot talk of greatness
without having a dream. Actualizing one’s dream to the maximum brings
greatness.
Dream has to do with vision, an objective that one
has decided to accomplish. If you don’t do your own part as a human being, your
dreams will never come to reality. Step out from your comfort zone and work out
your dreams, you take a step you will always remain where you are.
You must be will at all times to serve others,
knowing fully well that the mother of good fortune is diligence. Proverbs 10:4
“lazy hands will make you poor: working
hands will make you rich.”
The secret of success is doing the common things
uncommonly well. Proverbs 22:29 “Skilled
workers will always serve kings. They will never have to work for less
important people.” A lot can be accomplished in an hour with God than a
whole life time without God.
Trust leads to Integrity; it takes only a man of
wisdom to understand that trust is an attribute that leads to integrity. Trust
takes time to establish and a split of seconds to destroy. Trusting God
completely will make us not to lean on our own understanding.
Proverbs 3:5 “Trust God completely, and don’t
depend on your own knowledge.” Not depending on our own understanding means
embarking on the understanding of God which is wisdom. The Bible said in
1Corinthians 1:25 that “The foolishness of God is wiser than the wisdom of
man”, therefore trust is an incarnate of wisdom through which integrity is
guaranteed.
Show me a man who cannot be trusted to do little
things and I will show you a man who cannot be trusted to do big things. Most
times people who are faithful and trustworthy over a little are put in charge
over much.
Courage the attribute of wisdom;
courage is
the ability to be brave, when you are face with difficult situations. Courage is
resistance to fair. However it is the attribute of wisdom to be courageous
because it’s the job that is never started that take the longest time to
finish.
Life is a coin, you can spend it anyhow you want
but once. So, one needs to develop the hunter’s attitude wherever one goes,
because there are ideas waiting to be discovered and it takes courage for such
discovery to take place.
Most of the things worth doing in the world had
been declared impossible before they were done. A courageous man meets
criticisms and challenges in life, but it takes a man with wisdom to turn those
criticism and challenges to his advantage.
A courageous man expects great things from God
which will motivate him in attempting great things . it is the degree of
courage in a man that makes the difference in operation, the difference between
ordinary and extra ordinary is that little extra. It involves wisdom to take up
that extra and conquer. Its better to walk with the Lord in the dark than to
walk alone in the light.
Thought the bedrock of wisdom; many seek knowledge for
so many reasons today; some for fame, pleasure or recognition. The truth
remains that before all these things will into existence it has to start with a
thought.
Thought has to do with motives or something that
you remember or realize. It’s the intention or hope of doing something, so it
is the thought that counts.
A man that has an intention and idea will never
count the number of hours he put in achieving something but how much he put in
the hours. A wise man that has an obligation would always know that, in order
to rise to any level he has to improve himself everyway he can.
All these are the attribute of wisdom. It should
be mentioned that, the man of understanding that has good thought will always
have a desire and his desire will be channelled towards fulfilling vision.
Ones mind has to be free from can’t and do not let
your learning end in knowledge, rather let your learning continue to action
which is an embodiment of thought.
The most difficult secret for a man to keep is the
opinion he has of himself. Remind me each day that the race is not always to
the swift and that there is more to life than increasing its speed.
Life a spice to wisdom; life is very important and
ought to have meaning. It is not supposed that a man will live a meaningful
life without wisdom. James 4:14 “ whereas you do not know what will happen
tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even
a vapour that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.”
Life is a coin and can be
spent only once, one has to soar like an eagle because, that is when one will
attract hunters. For anyone who wants to succeed in life, should not follow the
crowd rather should be followed by the crowd.
Priority should be set
out, first thing should be done first. This process often reduces the most
complex human problems into manageable portions. The first thing that should be
done first here is seeking first the kingdom of God and His righteousness… the
Bible made it clear that every other thing shall be added unto you.
Another important factor
in the life of every human is knowing one’s destination. Destination is where
one hopes to be. It is a place in which an individual is set to reach. It is
the focusing point of a person.
It is very obvious that in
this present generation many has lost their path, for one to succeed in life he
or she must have a mind set because one does not just go to the market without
know what he or she wants to do. So to reach to our destination, we need to set
our mind on our goals and dreams.
It is often said that, the
way to get to the top is to get off your bottom, because laziness travels so
slowly that poverty soon overtakes it. A life that is channeled on one
identifying his or her highest skill and diverting time to performing it has
overcome procrastination which is the thief of time.
Do not equate activity
with efficiency, let all things be done decently and in order. I do not know
the secret to success, but the key to failure is to try to please everyone.
Patience; patience is the ability to
wait calmly for a long time and accept delays without becoming angry or
anxious. It is the ability to accept trouble and others annoying behavior without complaining or becoming angry.
Patience has a lot to do
with wisdom. It is only a wise man that will be patient with unfavorable circumstance with he or she knowing that consistency is needed to achieve any
goal in life.
He who considers his work
beneath him will always be above doing it well. One must have a long-range
goals to keep one from being frustrated by short-range failures.
So therefore as seen, wisdom is needed in every area of human existence and wisdom comes from God alone, any other source for wisdom is foolishness.
