God’s Wisdom with understanding of His enemies, is what gives true happiness. You can have all the wisdom of this world, and not have happiness. You see people everyday that have degree upon degree and do not have God’s wisdom with the understanding of His enemies. The wisdom of the world is foolishness to God. The wisdom in this world has come about from men’s goals without God’s advice. The world’s type of knowledge is greed driven, it has the love of money and power over people as the goal. If you can keep God first in your life, the wisdom He has for you is perfect, it has all you could ever need. God is the author of wisdom.
All you need for true happiness is to search for God’s wisdom and gain understanding of His enemies. God gets joy from you gaining wisdom and being victorious in this world. The world calls it crazy. Christians call it faith. When you use God’s wisdom to place the evil in this world under your stand, by faith, you get a happiness you can build on. It is not a happiness that is there only for a time, but one you can count on. When you take God’s wisdom and tell the doctor you’re not sure he has made the right diagnoses. He gets angry because he went to school for 10 years, and he cannot believe you do not believe him. You ask for a second opinion and it comes back the way God’s word said it should, you talk about happiness. When you use God’s wisdom to get your finances straight, and stand in faith, and your money gets in line, and you tell the banker no I do not need your money, the happiness is there to stay. When you build your life on God’s wisdom, and the devil tries to lie to you and say you are going to loose that, and you say I do not think so. I have built that on God’s promise you will not touch it, and the devil cowers and walks away, because he knows it is true. That is HAPPINESS!!!
God’s wisdom with understanding of His enemies. Just what you need for happiness.
