Wisdom Verses Strength

Solomon was a very wise man who drew many conclusions from his life. He told a  story of the wise man who saved a city and no one remembered him.  The lesson Solomon was trying to get across is that wisdom is better than strength. Wisdom is better than jewels or precious metals. Wisdom is stronger  than any weapon.  Yet wisdom does not get treated better than strength, riches or weapons  and rarely finds honor and respect. People with wisdom seem to be outcasts or despised. Take Jesus for example his wisdom was never got him recognition. He was despised and killed for his wisdom.


 

There are many wise and poor people who make up a church and who do more than the outside world knows, yet they don't do it for praise or reward. They hear with the ear of their spirit. They depend on the wisdom of God and his strength. They are the mighty silent armies with the ultra powerful shield of God's wisdom.
