Get Wisdom #24

   Prov.4:7(Amp) says, "The beginning of Wisdom is, get Wisdom (skillful and Godly Wisdom) For skillful and Godly Wisdom is the principal thing. And with all you have gotten, get understanding (discernment, comprehension and interpretation)."

  1Cor.1:30(Amp) says, "But it is from Him (God) that you have your life in Christ Jesus, (Whom God made our Wisdom from God)." If you have received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, then you have the Wisdom of God living in you. Now we must get understanding. Many times we've read the Word, without the understanding of it in our hearts. This understanding comes from meditating in the Word and allowing the Holy Spirit, Who is the Teacher, to reveal the discernment, comprehension and interpretation. Jeremiah1:12(Amp) says, "The said the Lord to me, You have seen well, For I Am alert and active, watching over My Word to perform it."

  We know that the power is in the blood. Jesus could have died on the cross like the two thieves, without the beating and torture and still have given Life to our new spirit. What was the reason for all Christ's suffering on the cross? Gal.3:13(Amp) says, "Christ purchased our freedom (redeeming us) from the Curse (doom) of the Law, and its condemnation, by Himself becoming a Curse for us, for it is written in the Scripture, Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree (is crucified)."

  Lev.17:14(Amp) says, "As for the life of all flesh, the blood of it, represents the Life of it." All the sacrifices God required from the Old Testament people were to give and sustain life in their flesh, by the Life of the blood of goats and lambs. The life of our flesh today isn't from goats and lambs, but is by the very Life Blood of Jesus our Sacrifice Lamb. Eph.1:7(Amp) says, "In Him we have redemption (deliverance and salvation) through His Blood, the forgiveness of our offenses (shortcomings and trespasses) In accordance with the riches and generosity of His Gracious favor." 

  Even after being born-again, we sin or miss God in our natural man/woman and in our flesh. Did our God make provision for our flesh or just our spirit? He did both, because we weren't yet made perfect in the flesh. 1John1:7(Amp) tells us, "But if we (really) are living and walking in the Light, As He Himself is in the Light, we have true unbroken fellowship with one another, and the Blood of Jesus Christ His Son, cleanses (removed) from us, all sin and guilt, (keeps us cleansed from sin in all its forms and manifestations)."

  Gaining understanding of the Power of His Blood, is to be able to walk in what it says in Heb.10:1-5(Amp), "For since the Law has merely a rude outline (foreshadowing) of the Good things to come, instead of fully expressing those things, it can never by offering the same sacrifices continually year after year make perfect those who approach its altars. For if it were otherwise, would these sacrifices not have stopped being offered? Since the worshipers had once for all be cleanse; they would no longer have any guilt or consciousness of sin. But as it is, these sacrifices annually bring a fresh remembrance of sins to be atoned for. Because the blood of goats and bulls is powerless to take sins away. Hence, when He (Christ) entered into the world, He said, Sacrifices and offerings You have not desired, But instead You have made ready for Me a body for Me to offer." Heb.1:19(Amp) says, "Therefore Brethren, since we have full freedom and confidence to enter into the Holy of Holies by the Power and Virtue in the Blood of Jesus."

  We must learn to have faith in His Blood, for the redemption of our flesh and our souls, to keep us clean and walk in our Redemption. Jesus is our Wisdom and He is the Word made flesh.
