Shalom,

Today's devotional by Jerry Savelle is a very simple, yet powerful guide to receiving the Wisdom that comes from God alone!

WISDOM TO WIN

If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God [Who gives] to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him. Only it must be in faith that he asks with no wavering … (James 1:5-6 AMP)
God always has a way to get you out of trouble and into the victory He has planned for you. This victory comes through the wisdom, knowledge, an understanding you need in your situation.
So how do you tap into this wealth of wisdom? Wisdom is received from God exactly the same way anything else is received from God: by asking in faith.
First, meditate on the promise found in James 1:5 until you know in your spirit that God is going to give you the wisdom you need. Then, simply ask Him for it and believe from that moment that you have received all the answers and understanding you need for the situation. Even if you still feel confused or uncertain, thank God for giving you the wisdom you asked for.
If the answer you need isn’t apparent two seconds after you ask, don’t waiver. Rest in the fact that God has answered your request. As you continue to thank Him and read His Word, the answers you need to get you out of that trouble will certainly come.
Confession: Father, I come to you in faith today, asking for the wisdom I need to obtain victory in my situation. I refuse to waiver as I thank you for the wisdom you have promised to so liberally give to me. I receive it now in Jesus’ name.
I LOVE his simple advice to not waiver when it SEEMS that the answer is not coming. God's timing is ALWAYS perfect! We need to simply stay in fellowship with Him, obeying the Word that He has already give to us, expecting to be a DOER of what He WILL tell us! Don't go to the LORD asking for Wisdom that you will decide whether or not to obey after you hear it! THAT is another form of deceiving yourself (James 1:22)! Be a DOER so HE can be the CONFIRMER that He desires to be (Mark 16:20)! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "No Reason To Hide":


Shalom in Him!
