Bible Texts: Jas.1:5,22-25, Pro.3:19-20, Pro.4:7, Jas.3:13-17, Jn.5:39, 2Tim.2:15, Jn.14:26, Is.58:8, Eph.1:18-19, Philp.2:13, Gal.4:19, Jn.15:5, Gal.5:22-23, Jn.10:10
The wisdom of God is and will always remain a profitable tool for the husbandman. The husbandman needs divine wisdom as much as he needs foods or clothes. Without the wisdom of God, the husbandman will be defeated, frustrated and will struggle to be useful as the man, husband and father.
But what is the wisdom of God?
The wisdom of God is searching to know the perfect will of God for your life, understanding what you have discovered and doing what you have discovered and understood. This means knowledge, understanding and action in the word of the Lord.
Consider the word of God from Proverbs chapter 4.
Wisdom is the principal thing, therefore get wisdom and with all thy getting, get understanding (Pro.4:7)
The source of wisdom that is profitable to you is the one that comes from God through His word.
But who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? Let him show out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. This wisdom descendeth not from above but is earthly, sensual, devilish. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy (Jas.3:13-17)
The wisdom, that is the action you take because of your understanding of what you know, that will profit you as the man, husband and father is the one which comes from the word of God and not from satan and the world. Any step or action you take that leads you to live in strife, envy, bitterness, hatred, malice, and all forms of ungodliness is of the devil and it does not profit you. But if what you seek to know, understand and act upon will lead you to live in peace with yourself, wife, children and others, and makes you bear the fruits of the Spirit of mercy, kindness, patience, compassion, forgiveness, hope, faith and joy, then that is the wisdom of God and it is profitable to you and to your ministry as the husbandman (Gal.5:22-23).
The wisdom from God is better than the wisdom of man. The wisdom of God is enduring and profitable. And the Bible is the way to access God’s wisdom for your profiting. Therefore, embrace the wisdom of God from the word of God for your profitable living as the husbandman.
