THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM

"The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him— the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the LORD." (Isaiah 11:2 KJV)

The second operational dimension of the Holy Spirit as was manifested in the Old Testament was the Spirit of Wisdom

In the Old Testament people like Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego operated with the Spirit of wisdom, but Solomon was the one that really stood out with the operation of this Spirit of wisdom, which also made his kingdom very great (11Kings 4:25-34).

But when our Lord Jesus Christ came unto the seen, He declared of Himself that a greater than Solomon has come. Thus, our Lord Jesus Christ was manifested with greater wisdom than that of Solomon (Matthew 12:42)

Note that Jesus Christ was not just filled with wisdom, but Himself is the wisdom of God that was given to Solomon, nevertheless, Solomon never new Him, and as children of God in the New Testament, the word of God says Christ has become our very wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:30) and He operates in us by His precious Holy Spirit as our Spirit of Wisdom. Glory to God! Hallelujah!

Prayer/Declaration
Heavenly Father, I thank You for the Holy Spirit who is given to me as my Spirit of wisdom. I declare that I operate with the wisdom of God in all my dealings in Jesus name. Amen!
