The Wisdom Journey

• Proverbs 1:1 (NKJV)

---

Thoughts from Brian Houston at Hillsong Leadership Network in London.

Wisdom is meant to be to build God's House, not line your pockets.
V7 the fear of the Lord is the beginning...
Where do you stand in regard to the fear of the Lord - honoring Him.
If you have moved on from the fear of the Lord you are in trouble.

Be aware of cool Christianity.
You can be singing the latest songs but be far from true intimacy with Jesus.

I don't want to be a professional Christian.

1. Wisdom to see.
We need to understand the words for ourselves. You can see and still not see.
A heart to see what we know for self.

2. Wisdom to receive.
Important to keep receiving instruction.
Many times we are blocked due to certain personalities but wisdom is hungry to learn from anybody.

3. Wisdom to give.
Experience is a great thing to give but it's very over rated due to mainly being about the past - what has already happened!

4. Wisdom to hear.
We can all be in the same meeting but not hear the same thing!
Keep tuning in to what God is wanting to say.

5. Wisdom to increase.
Never too late to keep learning.

6. Wisdom to attain.
Who do you have in your life that you can call on for wisdom.

7. Wisdom is a journey.
We never arrive.
To arrive is to get off the journey!
