Wisdom is necessary for right conduct in this life. In this message, Alistair Begg reminds us that God generously gives us wisdom if we ask for it with sincerity. As we consider wealth through the eyes of wisdom, we need to seek right priorities and to remember that our circumstances must be viewed in light of eternal certainties.
5jIf any of you lacks wisdom, klet him ask God, lwho gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. 6But mlet him ask in faith, nwith no doubting, for the one who doubts is like oa wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. 7For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8phe is a double-minded man, qunstable in all his ways.
9Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation, 10and rthe rich in his humiliation, because slike a flower of the grass3 he will pass away. 11For the sun rises with its scorching heat and twithers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So also will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.
12uBlessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive vthe crown of life, wwhich God has promised to those who love him.
