And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him. Wherefore when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he was afraid of him. 1Samuel 18:14-15 KJV
Wisdom is divine that is why not everybody can operate in the realm of wisdom. Don’t mistake smartness and intelligence for wisdom, wisdom is the mother of all sense because it is tapping into the mind of God. The root of wisdom makes it impossible to be wise and not have the presence of God around you. Wisdom is independent of experience, it just flows from within to provide one with an answer. David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him. It was a conscious decision from David to always act correctly, according to the law of God. Bear in mind that anytime you obey the commandments of God, you’re a wise person and anyone who obeys God is always surrounded by the presence of God.
By studying the Bible, praying, carrying out your financial obligations to God and living daily for God are major means to operating in wisdom and being in the presence of God. If you want to operate in maximal wisdom and carry the presence of God to anywhere you go, please consciously and deliberately seek God first daily and allow the instructions of God to influence your response to your activities and judge everything from the perspective of the Saul became scared of David, because of the way He behaved wisely. The enemy is scared of wise people because of the presence of the Almighty that surrounds them. Wisdom reveals God’s presence and anointing.
Prayer of the Day: I receive the grace to behave rightly at all times in accordance with the standards of God. In the name of Jesus I receive the spirit of wisdom that will enable me to operate maximally and enhance my life’s potential. I shall not be outside of God’s presence and my going out today and coming in is blessed in Jesus’ name, amen.
