Wisdom During Opposition
Scripture: Nehemiah 4 & 6
Opposition often causes us to question whether we are truly walking in God's will.
Fear clouds judgment, but godly wisdom is never driven by fear.
Wisdom enables us to remain focused on God's assignment despite distractions, criticism, and threats.
Many times, we only recognise whether we acted wisely or foolishly after we have spoken, highlighting the need to seek God's wisdom before responding.
Ask God for Wisdom
James 1:5 (NKJV)
"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him."
God invites every believer to ask Him for wisdom.
He gives wisdom generously and does not rebuke those who ask.
Instead of relying solely on our own understanding, we should continually seek God's guidance in every situation.
