God’s Perspective
Children are curious. They have constant questions about the world around them: “Why is the sky blue?” “Where do babies come from?” “Why do I have to go to bed when it’s still light out?!”
Are any of us shocked when they ask these questions? No. We know children must progressively learn how the world works to understand their place in it. No one expects them to understand everything.
Did you know God is the same way with us?
James shares that God knows we will lack wisdom! So, like children, Jesus wants us to ask for it because God loves to give it. God gives “without reproach,” which means without disapproval or disappointment.
Gaining wisdom means receiving God’s practical outlook in a given situation. It means asking for insight. And Solomon, one of the wisest people to ever live, painted this word picture in Proverbs 1:20: Wisdom calls aloud outside; she raises her voice in the open squares.
God is not in the business of withholding wisdom. Instead, He pours it out extravagantly on those who ask. The question for us is twofold: Will we ask? Will we follow God’s wisdom once we receive it?
Where do you need wisdom today? I invite you to ask for it right now, and then respond in faith when God gives it!
As you engage with God’s Word, consider:
● What is God saying to me?
● How can I apply what God is teaching me?
● How can I be specific in prayer today?
