There are many things in life we can ask God for, but the Bible urges us to seek wisdom above all things. On this month’s podcast episode of If You Really Knew Me Ben and Kim discuss all the wonderful ways God’s wisdom is displayed through His children and how we can glean from each other.

BIBLE VERSES:

1 Kings 3:9 AMP

So give your servant an understanding mind (wisdom) and a hearing heart with which to judge your people, so that I may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge and rule this great people of Yours?

James 1:5 ESV

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.

James 3:17 ESV

But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere.

Proverbs 3:13 - 18 ESV

Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold. She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. ...

Proverbs 1:7 ESV

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Romans 11:33 NLT

Oh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways!

Exodus 35:35 He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as engravers, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen, and weavers—all of them skilled workers and designers.

Psalms 104:24 How many are your works, LORD! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures.

Genesis 1:27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

Psalms 8:3-6 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and stars, which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them? You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor. You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet.

It’s been said humans can survive without food, water and even air for a short period of time, but not without hope. On this month’s podcast episode of If You Really Knew Me Ben and Kim discuss God’s hope and how it can be reflected in each personality type when we are aligned with the Gospel. If You Really Knew Me can be found at We Are The Bridge dot org slash podcast, on The Bridge app, OR wherever you listen to podcasts.

Bible Verses About HOPE -

Romans 15:13 (NLT) ~ I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in Him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) ~ For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Romans 8L24 (NIV) ~ For in this hope we were saved. But hope means that we must trust and wait for what is still unseen. For why would we need to hope for something we already have?

Hebrews 6:18-20 (MSG) ~ We who have run for our very lives to God have every reason to grab the promised hope with both hands and never let go. It’s an unbreakable spiritual lifeline, reaching past all appearances right to the very presence of God where Jesus, running on ahead of us, has taken up his permanent post as high priest for us, in the order of Melchizedek.

Hebrews 11:1 (TPT) ~ Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen.

Psalms 42:5 (TPT) ~ So then, my soul, why would you be depressed? Why would you sink into despair? Just keep hoping and waiting on God, your Savior. For no matter what, I will still sing with praise, for you are my saving grace!
