We erroneously think that we can arrive at wisdom apart from God. His wisdom is everywhere in the universe; even wicked men can discover bits of it, though they may not yet acknowledge God as its source. Non-Christian religions can contain truth, because all truth is God’s truth. Wisdom is ultimately derived from the Creator God (Psalm 111:10). Worship taps into the Source of wisdom, moving from knowledge to awe. Wisdom from God is the way of transforming humankind.
“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his precepts have good understanding. To him belongs eternal praise.” Psalm 111:10 (NIV)
