Genesis 41:38 And Pharaoh said to his servants, \u201cCan we find a man like this, in whom is the Spirit of God?<\/p>\n

Numbers 27:18<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0So the LORD said to Moses, \u201cTake Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand on him.<\/p>\n

Job 32:8<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0But it is the spirit in man, the breath of the Almighty, that makes him understand.<\/p>\n

Daniel 5:11<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods. In the days of your father, light and understanding and wisdom like the wisdom of the gods were found in him, and King Nebuchadnezzar, your father\u2014your father the king\u2014made him chief of the magicians, enchanters, Chaldeans, and astrologers,<\/p>\n

Job 35:11<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?\u2019<\/p>\n

Proverbs 2:6<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;<\/p>\n

1 Kings 3:12<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0behold, I now do according to your word. Behold, I give you a wise and discerning mind, so that none like you has been before you and none like you shall arise after you.<\/p>\n

1 Kings 3:28<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0And all Israel heard of the judgment that the king had rendered, and they stood in awe of the king, because they perceived that the wisdom of God was in him to do justice.<\/p>\n

1 Kings 4:29<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding beyond measure, and breadth of mind like the sand on the seashore,<\/p>\n

Ecclesiastes 2:26<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0For to the one who pleases him God has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, but to the sinner he has given the business of gathering and collecting, only to give to one who pleases God.<\/p>\n

1 Corinthians 2:10-12<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.\u00a0\u00a0For who knows a person’s thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.\u00a0\u00a0Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God.<\/p>\n

1 Corinthians 12:8<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit,<\/p>\n

James 1:5<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Have you ever faced a problem and the solution was far from you?\u00a0 <\/span>Can you remember a time when all your thinking came up blank on how to solve the problem.\u00a0 <\/span>I can\u2019t tell you how many times I have faced a problem head on, on my own, and without giving thought to God.\u00a0 <\/span>These were times I thought I could handle it on my own.\u00a0 <\/span>When I look back I recognize one facet of my life was constant, or should I say not constant.\u00a0 <\/span>I was not seeking God daily, or spending daily time in His word, or intentionally wanting to honor, glorify, serve, follow and obey Him.\u00a0 <\/span>I would like to say this period of my life was short lived.\u00a0 <\/span>Not the case.\u00a0 <\/span>I would have times or seeking and then fall back into very complacent times, neglectful times.\u00a0 <\/span>These were times without the influence of Godly wisdom because I was not seeking it, did not think I needed, and was closed to even thinking about it.<\/p>\n

Intentionally choosing, seeking, desiring, wanting to be close to God is a daily heart and mind battle of commitment.\u00a0 <\/span>It requires repentance from the current way of living and commitment to God with all aspects of our daily life.\u00a0 <\/span>Commitment to His word, Commitment to His leading, Commitment to listening, Commitment to being faithful, and Commitment to prayer.\u00a0 <\/span>Soon Commitment becomes a God filled daily faithful habit. Our soul will thirst and hunger for Him.\u00a0 Our mind will think on His word.\u00a0 Our ears will listen for His quiet whispers.\u00a0 Our eyes will look for work of His mighty hand.<\/p>\n

Humbly serving and following God is a daily commitment with daily rewards.\u00a0 <\/span>Our life is filled with the indwelling, teaching, instructing, encouraging, strengthening, loving, warning, convicting, directing, leading, enlightening, and loving from the Holy Spirit of God, through whom we gain wisdom and understanding and knowledge.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t try to face another day without being filled with the Holy Spirit of God.\u00a0 <\/span>Don\u2019t try to face a problem alone.\u00a0 <\/span>Don\u2019t try to find solution without His wisdom. God is willing and wanting to lead and direct and give wisdom and understanding to us if we give our whole heart, mind and soul commitment to Him.<\/p>\n

Think about your commitment is it where you want it to be?\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>If it is not, then repent and commit to God.<\/p>\n

Ezekiel 36:25-27<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you. And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules..\u00a0<\/span>.<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
