Revelation of the Word:

THEME: VALUE OF WISDOM

Job 28:15-23 NKJV

“It cannot be purchased for gold, Nor can silver be weighed for its price. It cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir, In precious onyx or sapphire. Neither gold nor crystal can equal it, Nor can it be exchanged for jewelry of fine gold. No mention shall be made of coral or quartz, For the price of wisdom is above rubies. The topaz of Ethiopia cannot equal it, Nor can it be valued in pure gold. “From where then does wisdom come? And where is the place of understanding? It is hidden from the eyes of all living, And concealed from the birds of the air. Destruction and Death say, ‘We have heard a report about it with our ears.’ God understands its way, And He knows its place.”

INSIGHT

–The value of wisdom is unmatched. It has greater worth than gold, onyx, sapphire, crystal, coral, quartz, rubies and every other mineral. Proverbs 3:13-15 reveals to us that, happy is the man who finds wisdom and the man who gains understanding for her proceeds are better than the profits of silver and her gain than fine gold. She is more precious than rubies, and all the things we may desire cannot compare with her. Wisdom therefore is more valuable than wealth and riches. Some among us prefer to venture into corrupt dealings to accumulate their wealth which is fleeting and lacks a proper foundation. God calls us to seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all other things He will add unto us. We must be convinced that, God’s blessings make one rich and added no sorrow with it (Proverbs 10:22).

PRAYER

How much better is wisdom than gold and silver. How much better is knowing You dear Lord Jesus and trusting in You that to engage in theft and corruption. How much better is trusting You Lord than riches, power and wealth. How much better is to get understanding rather than silver and gold. You alone are worthy, gracious and able. You alone are loving and precious. You alone designed us to follow You and become like You Jesus. May You grant wisdom to all our leaders and all those who engage in theft and corruption. May You forgive and cleanse us, our families, leaders, churches, and nation from every sin and trespass. May You teach us Your ways and draw us closer to You precious Holy Spirit. May Your name be exulted in us and through us. May You expand our businesses and strengthen our economy. All glory, honor, power, praises, riches and wealth belong to You dear Lord Jesus, now and forever. Amen
