Wisdom From Your Lips

Wisdom From Your Lips

TO THE BIBLE: 1 Corinthians 2:12-13
“Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God. These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.”

LET’S TALK
Our opening scripture says, “These things we also speak,” and then goes on to explain what those things are—wisdom! We speak wisdom.

1 Corinthians 2:6-8 makes it even clearer; it says, “However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.”

Speaking wisdom is speaking the Word. This annoys satan and his cohorts because they can’t get in on it!

For example, the Word says you’re a partaker of the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4); that’s the wisdom of God.

Therefore, when you, on the basis of that scripture, declare, “I’m an associate of the God-kind; a partaker of His grace, glory, and expression of His righteousness,” you’re speaking wisdom.

When you declare, “All things are mine,” you’re speaking wisdom. When you say, “I have the life of God in me; I live in agelessness, wantlessness, deathlessness, and fearlessness,” you’re speaking wisdom.

Declare what the Word says concerning you, irrespective of the situation. Affirm your righteousness, health, dominion, and oneness with the Lord with boldness. Speak wisdom always, and your life will glorify God.

1 Corinthians 2:6-8; Hebrews 13:5-6

Speak:
The wisdom of God is in my heart and in my mouth today. God’s Word is as fire shut up in my bones, and as I speak, I dissolve doubts. I’m prevailing and reigning in life by grace through righteousness, and the glory of God is seen and expressed through me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
