SUPERNATURAL GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT (1): THE WORD OF WISDOM
For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom?
I Corinthians 12:8a (KJV)
The gifts of the Holy Spirit are given as He wills. It is not within the will of the believer to manifest any gift because the manifestation is according to the will of Yahweh by His Spirit. Today, let us look at the gift of the Word of Wisdom. The first thing to know is that it is not the gift of Wisdom. It is the gift of the Word of Wisdom, there is a difference. The gifts of the Spirit are given supernaturally. It is never a function of natural wisdom. Another important fact is that the Lord is the all wise God and the only wise God (see I Timothy 1:17) but He only reveals a part of it to man – that which He wants him to know at a given time. So, this is Yahweh sharing a word of wisdom with you at a given time according to His will. The Word of Wisdom Is Not Wisdom in the Affairs of Life. The word of wisdom is confused many times with simple wisdom in the affairs of life, but simple wisdom in the affairs of life is not a spiritual gift. In the beginning of Joshua’s ministry, Yahweh told him that the key to his success would lie in meditating on the Word of Yahweh, and that is how Joshua was to obtain wisdom in the affairs of life (see Joshua 1:8). There is a wisdom that is gained through the knowledge of Yahweh’s Word but that is not the supernatural manifestation of the gift of the Word of Wisdom.
The word of wisdom is a supernatural revelation by the Spirit of Yahweh concerning the divine purpose and plan in the mind and will of Yahweh. The word of wisdom is the best gift because it is a revelation concerning the plans and the purposes in the mind of Yahweh. The Word of Wisdom always speak about the future. This is the difference between the Word of Wisdom and the Word of Knowledge. A word of wisdom may be manifested through the vehicle of prophecy in any Spirit-filled believer’s life in his own private prayer life, as the Spirit wills, as the believer prays out the plan of Yahweh for his own life (see John 16:13,14). Therefore, the word of wisdom can come through the vocal gift of an utterance — through prophecy or through tongues and interpretation. The word of wisdom can also come through a vision or by a dream. For instance, in the Old Testament, Joseph received a word of wisdom through a dream which revealed to him Yahweh’s plans and purposes for Joseph’s future. Moses received the revelation of the Law by an audible Voice as Yahweh gave him the Law. The Law concerned Yahweh’s purpose for Israel; therefore, this was the word of wisdom in demonstration.
As you are in the Spirit, being spiritually minded, the Holy Spirit can deem it necessary to bring you the Word of Wisdom concerning your life, people, city or the world. It is as He wills. Your own part is to ensure that you are in the Spirit, saturated by the Word. Selah!
REMEMBER: The Word of Wisdom is the supernatural revelation of divine purpose and plan.
PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I desire to function in the gifts of the Spirit according to Your Will. I ask that You help me to maintain connection always with Your Spirit, so I can be in the position to receive according to His will at anytime in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: Whatever in your life that is working against your spirituality is cursed today. I decree your spiritual perception comes alive from now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
