What Is God's Wisdom?

God's wisdom is in Christ, according to the Bible. God's wisdom is for every believer in our Lord Jesus Christ. But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God (1 Corinthians 1:30). He is your wisdom for all of the decisions in life. God's wisdom is confirmed with peace in your heart.

God's wisdom is a spiritual gift. In making the decisions of life, believers in Christ ask and receive God's wisdom (James 1:5). Always trust God's wisdom to lead you. Wisdom is based upon the truth, because wisdom comes from God. Follow the words of God's wisdom in your Bible, and you will have no regrets. 

God's wisdom is confirmed with the fruit of peace. Wisdom and peace come from the Holy Spirit. When you have God's wisdom, peace confirms it. God always confirms wisdom with the witness of peace. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts (Colossians 3:15).

God's wisdom has a counterfeit that seeks to lead you the wrong way. It disguises itself as wisdom, but notice the fruit. Wisdom of this world cannot compare to the wisdom coming from God. Worldly wisdom is selfish, sensual, and brings confusion. God's wisdom is proven with good fruit. But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy, and good fruits (James 3:17).
