Scriptures on the Wisdom of God
Psalms
19:7-11
7 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the
soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
8 The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing
the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9 The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring
forever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea,
than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in
keeping of them there is great reward.
Proverbs
8:33-35
33 Hear instruction, and
be wise, and refuse it not.
34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching
daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall
obtain favor of the Lord.
The
fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
Proverbs 11:30
The
way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is
wise. Proverbs 12:15
The
law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
Proverbs 13:14
And
He changeth the times and the seasons: He removeth kings, and setteth up kings:
He giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding. He
revealeth the deep and secret things. He knoweth what is in the darkness, and
the light dwelleth with Him. Daniel 2:21-22
To
God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen. Romans 16:27
But
God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God
hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are
mighty. 1 Corinthians 1:27
Now
unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and
glory forever and ever. Amen. 1 Timothy 1:17
And
that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make
thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture
is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof,
for correction, for instruction in righteousness. That the man of God may be
perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. 2 Timothy 3:15-17
To
the only wise God our Savior, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both
now and ever. Amen. Jude 25
Saying,
Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honor, and power,
and might, be unto our God forever and ever. Amen. Revelation 7:12
Saying
with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and
riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing. And every
creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as
are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honor,
and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the
Lamb forever and ever. Revelation 5:12-13
James
3:13-16
13 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge
among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of
wisdom.
14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in
your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is
earthly, sensual, devilish.
16 For where envying and strife is, there is
confusion and every evil work.
James
3:17-18
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first
pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits,
without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace
of them that make peace.
Who
is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good
conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. James 3:13
James
1:5-8
5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God,
that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given
him.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For
he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7 For let not that man think that he shall
receive any thing of the Lord.
8 A double minded man is unstable in all his
ways.
Let
the Word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing
one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your
hearts to the Lord. Colossians 3:16
That
their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all
riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the
mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ. In whom are hid all the
treasures of wisdom and knowledge. Colossians 2:2-3
Colossians
1:9-14
9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard
it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with
the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all
pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of
God;
11 Strengthened with all might, according to his
glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made
us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
13 Who hath delivered us from the power of
darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
14 In whom we have redemption through his blood,
even the forgiveness of sins:
Ephesians
3:9-10
9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship
of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who
created all things by Jesus Christ:
10 To the intent that now unto the principalities
and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom
of God.
Ephesians
3:11-21
11 According to the eternal purpose which he
purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:
12 In whom we have boldness and access with
confidence by the faith of him.
13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my
tribulations for you, which is your glory.
14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father
of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is
named,
16 That he would grant you, according to the
riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner
man;
17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith;
that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what
is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth
knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding
abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh
in us,
21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus
throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
Ephesians
1:17-23
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the
Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the
knowledge of him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being
enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the
riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his
power to usward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him
from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
21 Far above all principality, and power, and
might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but
also in that which is to come:
22 And hath put all things under his feet, and
gave him to be the head over all things to the church,
23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that
filleth all in all.
Ephesians
1:4-8
4 According as he hath chosen us in him before
the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before
him in love:
5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of
children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his
will,
6 To the praise of the glory of his grace,
wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
7 In whom we have redemption through his blood,
the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
8 Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all
wisdom and prudence.
1
Corinthians 12:8-11
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of
wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another
the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
10 To another the working of miracles; to another
prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues;
to another the interpretation of tongues:
11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame
Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.
1
Corinthians 3:19-20
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness
with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the
wise, that they are vain.
1
Corinthians 2:12-13
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the
world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are
freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words
which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing
spiritual things with spiritual.
1
Corinthians 2:7-10
7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery,
even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
8 Which none of the princes of this world knew:
for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor
ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God
hath prepared for them that love him.
10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his
Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
That
your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. 1
Corinthians 2:5
And
my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in
demonstration of the Spirit and of power. 1 Corinthians 2:4
But
of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and
righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption. 1 Corinthians 1:30
1
Corinthians 1:21-24
21 For after that in the
wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness
of preaching to save them that believe.
22 For the Jews require
a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
23 But we preach Christ
crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and
Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
1
Corinthians 1:17-20
17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to
preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be
made of none effect.
18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that
perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of
the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where
is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this
world?
Romans
11:33-36
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom
and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past
finding out!
34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who
hath been his counsellor?
35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be
recompensed unto him again?
36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are
all things: to whom be glory forever. Amen.
Acts
6:2-4
2 Then the twelve called the multitude of the
disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word
of God, and serve tables.
3 Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you
seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may
appoint over this business.
4 But we will give ourselves continually to
prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
Therefore
also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some
of them they shall slay and persecute. Luke 11:49
And
Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man. Luke 2:52
And
the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace
of God was upon him. Luke 2:40
I
thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom
and might, and hast made known unto me now what we desired of thee: for thou
hast now made known unto us the king's matter. Daniel 2:23
Daniel
2:20-22
20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name
of God forever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
21 And he changeth the times and the seasons: he
removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and
knowledge to them that know understanding:
22 He revealeth the deep and secret things: he
knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
Daniel
answered and said, Blessed be the name of God forever and ever: for wisdom and
might are His. Daniel 2:20
As
for these four children, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and
wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams. Daniel 1:17
He
hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom,
and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion. Jeremiah 10:12
Isaiah
33:5-6
5 The Lord is exalted; for he dwelleth on high:
he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.
6 And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability
of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord is his treasure.
Isaiah
11:1-5
1 And there shall come
forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:
2 And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him,
the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the
spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;
3 And shall make him of quick understanding in
the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes,
neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:
4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor,
and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth
with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the
wicked.
5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his
loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
For
wisdom is a defense, and money is a defense: but the excellency of knowledge
is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it. Ecclesiastes 7:12
For
God giveth to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy.
Ecclesiastes 2:26
Proverbs
24:3-4
3 Through wisdom is an house builded; and by
understanding it is established:
4 And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled
with all precious and pleasant riches.
The
fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom; and before honor is humility.
Proverbs 15:33
Proverbs
9:10-11
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of
wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
11 For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the
years of thy life shall be increased.
Wisdom
hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars. Proverbs 9:1
Proverbs
8:14-32
14 Counsel is mine, and
sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.
15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
16 By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the
judges of the earth.
17 I love them that love me; and those that seek
me early shall find me.
18 Riches and honor are with me; yea, durable
riches and righteousness.
19 My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine
gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the
midst of the paths of judgment:
21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit
substance; and I will fill their treasures.
22 The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his
way, before his works of old.
23 I was set up from everlasting, from the
beginning, or ever the earth was.
24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth;
when there were no fountains abounding with water.
25 Before the mountains were settled, before the
hills was I brought forth:
26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the
fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when
he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
28 When he established the clouds above: when he
strengthened the fountains of the deep:
29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the
waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of
the earth:
30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him:
and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth;
and my delights were with the sons of men.
32 Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children:
for blessed are they that keep my ways.
I
wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.
Proverbs 8:12
For
wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to
be compared to it. Proverbs 8:11
Proverbs
5:1-2
1
My
son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding:
2 That thou mayest regard discretion, and that
thy lips may keep knowledge.
Proverbs
4:11-13
11 I have taught thee in
the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.
12 When thou goest, thy steps shall not be
straitened; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.
13 Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go:
keep her; for she is thy life.
Proverbs
4:5-9
5 Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not;
neither decline from the words of my mouth.
6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee:
love her, and she shall keep thee.
7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get
wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she
shall bring thee to honor, when thou dost embrace her.
9 She shall give to thine head an ornament of
grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.
Proverbs
3:19-24
19 The Lord by wisdom hath founded the earth; by
understanding hath he established the heavens.
20 By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and
the clouds drop down the dew.
21 My son, let not them depart from thine eyes:
keep sound wisdom and discretion:
22 So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace
to thy neck.
23 Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy
foot shall not stumble.
24 When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid:
yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.
Proverbs
3:13-18
13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the
man that getteth understanding.
14 For the merchandise of it is better than the
merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies: and all the
things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.
16 Length of days is in her right hand; and in her
left hand riches and honour.
17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her
paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold
upon her: and happy is everyone that retaineth her.
Proverbs
2:2-11
2 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and
apply thine heart to understanding;
3 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and
liftest up thy voice for understanding;
4 If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest
for her as for hid treasures;
5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the
Lord, and find the knowledge of God.
6 For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth
cometh knowledge and understanding.
7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he
is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.
8 He keepeth the paths of judgment, and
preserveth the way of his saints.
9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and
judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.
10 When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and
knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;
11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding
shall keep thee:
The
fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Proverbs 1:7
Proverbs
1:2-5
2 To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the
words of understanding;

and judgment, and equity;
4 To give subtilty to the simple, to the young
man knowledge and discretion.

learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
To
him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth forever. Psalms
136:5

fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they
that do his commandments: his praise endureth forever. Psalms 111:10

Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord, that delighteth greatly in his
commandments.
2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the
generation of the upright shall be blessed.
3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and
his righteousness endureth forever.
4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the
darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will
guide his affairs with discretion.
6 Surely he shall not be moved forever: the
righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
O
Lord, how manifold are thy works! In wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth
is full of thy riches. Psalms 104:24

Chronicles 1:10-12
10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go
out and come in before this people: for who can judge this thy people, that is
so great?
11 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in
thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honor, nor the life of
thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and
knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made
thee king:
12 Wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and
I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honor, such as none of the kings have
had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the
like.
1
Chronicles 22:12-13
12 Only the Lord give thee wisdom and
understanding, and give thee charge concerning Israel, that thou mayest keep
the law of the Lord thy God.
13 Then shalt thou prosper, if thou takest heed to
fulfil the statutes and judgments which the Lord charged Moses with concerning
Israel: be strong, and of good courage; dread not, nor be dismayed.

are thy men, happy are these thy servants, which stand continually before thee,
and that hear thy wisdom. 1 Kings 10:8

spirit of wisdom; for Moses had laid his hands upon him: and the children of

like unto Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face,
Exodus
36:1-2
1 Then wrought Bezaleel
and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whom the Lord put wisdom and
understanding to know how to work all manner of work for the service of the
sanctuary, according to all that the Lord had commanded.

every wise hearted man, in whose heart the Lord had put wisdom, even everyone
whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it.
Exodus
31:3-6
3 And I have filled him with the Spirit of God,
in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of
workmanship,
4 To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and
in silver, and in brass,
5 And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in
carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.
6 And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab,
the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are
wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded
thee;
And
all the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun goats' hair. Exodus

35:30-35
30 And Moses said unto the children of Israel,

the tribe of Judah;

workmanship;
32 And to devise curious works, to work in gold,
and in silver, and in brass,
33 And in the cutting of stones, to set them, and
in carving of wood, to make any manner of cunning work.

work all manner of work, of the engraver, and of the cunning workman, and of

the weaver, even of them that do any work, and of those that devise cunning
work.

unto all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom,
that they may make Aaron's garments to consecrate him, that he may minister
unto me in the priest's office.
4 And these are the garments which they shall
make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered coat, a mitre,
and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his
sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
5 And they shall take gold, and blue, and purple,
and scarlet, and fine linen.
6 And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue,
and of purple, of scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work.

heart? Job 38:36

Proverbs
3:1-18
1 My son, forget not my
law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:

shall they add to thee.
3 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them
about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
4 So shalt thou find favor and good understanding
in the sight of God and man.
5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and
lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall
direct thy paths.
7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord,
and depart from evil.
8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to
thy bones.
9 Honor the Lord with thy substance, and with the
firstfruits of all thine increase:
10 So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and
thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
11 My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord;
neither be weary of his correction:
12 For whom the Lord loveth he correcteth; even as

paths are peace.

upon her: and happy is everyone that retaineth her.

grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.
It is God's will that no one should perish (end up in hell), but that ALL should come to repentance.
For God so loved this world that He gave His only begotton Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
God did not send His Son into this world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him would be saved.
The thief (Satan the devil) comes only for to kill, steal and destroy. But Jesus has come to give us life, and life more abundantly, until it overflows.
I urge you to come to the Cross today and receive Jesus as your Savior and Lord. He will wash away all your sins and make you as clean and white as fresh snow.
Just pray this prayer and mean it with your heart:
Dear Lord Jesus (if you are not able to call him Lord yet, then just say "Jesus")
I receive You as my Savior and Lord. I give my life over to You. I believe that You died and rose again, and that if I call on the Name of the Lord I shall be saved.
I accept you into my heart right now, and confess that You are Lord and have risen from the dead and forever live to make intercession for me.
Thank You for washing my heart pure and clean and making me whole, and for giving me peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Thank You that now I am a new creature in Christ Jesus. The old has gone and the new has come.
And there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh (carnality and sin), but walk after the Spirit. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
If you prayed this prayer, I believe you got born again and are now heaven bound and will be with the Lord forever and have eternal life. Your sins are now forgiven. You are accepted in the Beloved.
I would encourage you to find a good Bible based local church to help you grow in your faith, to learn the Word of God, to praise and worship Him, and to have fellowship with the saints.
Serving Christ is the best decision you will ever make.
God bless you!!!
