WISDOM IS ALL YOU NEED... SEEK IT.


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.

It is always desirable to accomplish the vision of ones life through positive thinking. This is because good thoughts bear good fruit and bad thought bears bad fruit and man is his own gardener.

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.
