About This Message
Working from James 1:5 and Proverbs 8, Pastor Addison unpacks the Hebrew idea of hokma, or wisdom, describing it as God's own attribute present with him at creation and available to any believer who asks in faith. He teaches that this wisdom, worth more than rubies, is found only through the fear of the Lord and ultimately points to Christ, the wisdom of God.
Key Takeaways
- Hokma, or wisdom, was with God at creation and can be given to us.
- Wisdom is valued above gold, silver, and precious stones in Proverbs.
- The fear of the Lord is the starting point for gaining wisdom.
