Day 14: The Strategy of Wisdom

1 Corinthians 2:1-12; Nehemiah 2:12-18; Nehemiah 4:15-23; 1 Chronicles 14:8-17; Joshua 6:1-10, 15ff; Luke 5:1-11.

“But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory.”1 Corinthians 2:7

God never does anything without first activating wisdom. Wisdom is a comprehensive insight into the ways and purposes of God. Wisdom is knowing what to do when you don’t know what to do. Wisdom is knowing the best means to the best ends. Wisdom is the proper application of knowledge. And most importantly, for today’s devotion, wisdom is a strategy for winning in life. Many stories in the Old and New Testaments of the Bible highlight the power of wisdom’s strategy for winning in life. From accounts of how Nehemiah strategically confounded Israel’s adversaries, to how Joshua surmounted the walls of Jericho, to David overcoming the Philistines and declaring God as the ‘Lord of Breakthroughs,’ to the Lord Jesus helping Peter break out of a season of dryness, it is clear that without a God-given strategy for confronting the many situations of life, victory may be a far-fetched pipe dream. God has a strategy for you to go up, get out, and find a way in. And that strategy is delivered on the platform of the wisdom of God. Wisdom is both an ‘Activity-based’ and a ’Time-based’ strategy for finding the way forward and enjoying God’s best in life. And as you walk with God’s wisdom strategy in whatever situation you are dealing with, He will work supernaturally to divinely orchestrate situations in such a way that unfolding events in the natural eventually put you at the top and give you the upper hand in life. There is a way out! There is a way in! There is a way up! Receive God’s wisdom strategy today. You are a winner!

Prayer: Father, I thank you because you are the all-wise God. You have a strategy and plan for every situation I must deal with in my life. I give you full control and submit to your will and strategy today. Please open the eyes of my heart so I can know what your best plans are. I give you the glory and praise. In Jesus’ mighty Name. Amen!
