‘The
wisdom of the wise will perish’ (Isaiah 29:14). As, Lord, we read these
words, may we know that there is another ‘wisdom’, a ‘wisdom’ which
shall not perish, a ‘wisdom’ which is ‘wiser than man’s wisdom’. Christ
is ‘the Wisdom of God’ (1 Corinthians 1:24-25). May we know that, with
Christ as our Saviour, we ‘shall not perish.’ Through faith in Him, we
receive the ‘wisdom’ which brings ‘salvation’ (John 3:16; 2 Timothy
3:15). He is ‘the Way, the Truth and the Life’ (John 14:6). He is the
Way to true wisdom. He is the Truth upon which true wisdom is based. He
is the Life which is based on true wisdom. He is
true Wisdom. Help us, Lord, not to seek wisdom apart from faith in
Jesus Christ – ‘the world did not know God through wisdom.’ May we know
that there is one true wisdom which does ‘not rest in the wisdom of men
but in the power of God’ – faith in ‘Christ crucified’ (1 Corinthians
1:21-23; 2:1-5).
