This is Divine Wisdom — wisdom from above, not merely information or intelligence, but God’s revealed and applied truth that produces results.
Let me help you refine, align, and sharpen this into a clear teaching/sermon flow, while preserving your spiritual depth.
WHAT WISDOM IS THIS?
“And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands?”
— Mark 6:2 (KJV)
👉 Wisdom is the force behind mighty works.
No mighty work happens without wisdom.
THE NATURE OF DIVINE WISDOM
Wisdom is knowing what to do and doing it
Knowing where to go and going there
Knowing what to say and when to say it
Divine wisdom levels challenges and dismantles impossibilities.
“He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots.”
— Job 28:9
Nothing looks big when confronted with God’s wisdom.
“He cutteth out rivers among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing.”
— Job 28:10
👉 Divine wisdom creates solutions and makes discoveries.
It is creative and revelational, not mechanical.
THE SOURCE OF DIVINE WISDOM
Divine wisdom cannot be bought, learned, or inherited.
Job 28:15–28
✔ It is asked for
✔ It is received from God
✔ It flows through prayer and reverence
“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God…”
— James 1:5
LEVELS OF WISDOM
(James 3)
James identifies four expressions, though commonly grouped as three categories:
Earthly wisdom – common sense, street wisdom
Sensual wisdom – intellectual, soulish reasoning
Devilish wisdom – manipulative, satanic strategy
Wisdom from above (Divine) – pure, peaceable, powerful
“This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.”
— James 3:15
“But the wisdom that is from above is first pure…”
— James 3:17
QUALITIES OF DIVINE WISDOM
(James 3:17)
Divine wisdom is:
Pure
Peaceable
Gentle
Easy to be entreated
Full of mercy
Full of good fruits
Without partiality
Without hypocrisy
👉 These qualities must be craved, not assumed.
ACCESSING DIVINE WISDOM
1. New Birth
New birth grants spiritual access.
Divine wisdom flows from a regenerated heart, not mere intellect.
2. Fear of the Lord
“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom.”
— Psalm 111:10
The fear of God is the initiator of divine wisdom.
3. Obedience
Divine wisdom manifests only through obedience.
“Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them…”
— Matthew 7:24
Wisdom is applied truth, not stored revelation.
THE ROLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
“He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance…”
— John 14:26
The Holy Spirit is the anchor of divine wisdom
Divine wisdom flows by inspiration
Inspiration comes from intimacy
FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD AND WISDOM
“Henceforth I call you not servants… but friends.”
— John 15:15
Friends of God access divine secrets.
“Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do?”
— Genesis 18:17
👉 Divine secrets are the raw materials of divine wisdom.
THE HEART CONNECTION
“The LORD hath sought him a man after his own heart.”
— 1 Samuel 13:14
A heart for God:
Makes kings (Genesis 41:38)
Creates room on the earth (1 Chronicles 29:3)
Produces relevance and longevity
JOY AND WISDOM
“With joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.”
— Isaiah 12:3
“In thy presence is fullness of joy.”
— Psalm 16:11
Joy is a fertilizer of divine wisdom.
“Rejoice in the Lord always.”
— Philippians 4:4
👉 When joy is present, surpassing wisdom flows effortlessly.
CONCLUSION
Divine wisdom is:
God’s wisdom
God’s way
God’s timing
God’s results
When divine wisdom operates, whatever comes from you justifies you.
