It is necessary to have wisdom (knowledge applied) to be successful.  Wisdom/power are in our spirit, but there are different ways to release it.  It is not enough to just know what the Word of God says, you must also apply it and that requires wisdom.  When Adam and Eve sinned it was more than just a disobedient act.  Something spiritual happened. (1) they died spiritually (separated from God), (2) they received the nature of sin, (3) they lost their authority (satan took it).  There are three kinds of wisdom referenced in 1 Cor. 2:1-5  (1) wisdom of God (2) wisdom of satan (3) wisdom of man.  What is happening in our world today is not God’s doing.  Satan established a kingdom in our authority. Jn. 10:10 reveals his agenda.  God asked Adam,” Who told you that?”  I ask who are you permitting to speak into your life?  We need to examine the three kinds of wisdom and see what sort of application we would initiate in our life, this is our responsibility: not God’s.  God can reveal Himself to you by the Holy Spirit through His Word and you can walk out the wisdom of God, which will effect all the other areas of your life.  If we apply the Word of God we can walk this life out above every circumstance and situation that hits our life.  We would find that the wisdom of God would bring wholeness, soundness, balance, and wellness while we are doing life!
