Knowledge & Wisdom

Bishop Dag Heward-Mills

READ: 1 Corinthians 2:9-16
“Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth…” - 1 Corinthians 2:13  

Intelligence is defined as the capacity for learning, reasoning and understanding. It is the aptitude for grasping truths, relationships, facts and meanings. The four pillars of intelligence are knowledge, wisdom, understanding and the fear of the Lord. The Holy Spirit influences your knowledge, your wisdom, your understanding and your fear of the Lord. All these four aspects make up intelligence. Amazingly, the Holy Spirit influences each of these areas directly.
Thankfully, the Holy Spirit is a source of knowledge. A great part of His influence is to cause you to have knowledge. Knowledge is the information that you need. It consists of the facts, the data and the truths about any subject. Ignorance is directly proportional to many of the evils in the world today. The more people are uneducated and ignorant, the higher the levels of poverty, disease, backwardness, wars and famine.
Your level of knowledge is directly influenced by the Holy Spirit because the Holy Spirit is the spirit of knowledge.
And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wis- dom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;
Isaiah 11 :2
Fortunately, the Holy Spirit is also a source of wisdom. In fact, He is called the spirit of wisdom.

I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died. And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death. Romans 7:9–10 In 1942, C S Lewis wrote a brilliant book entitled  The Screwtape Letters . It tells the story of a senior demon teaching a junior demon how to exploit man’s weaknesses and frailties. Along the same lines, I would imagine that Romans 7:9 is probably the most studied and memorized verse in hell. All junior demons would be taught this verse and the lecture would be titled, “How to bring about a revival of sin”! According to Paul, when you introduce the law, there will be a REVIVAL OF SIN! And that’s not all. Apart from reviving sin, the law also kills and brings death! Isn’t it amazing, then, that there are well-meaning ministers who preach strongly on the Ten Commandments, thinking that imposing the law would cause sin to be removed? According to Romans 3:20, “ by the law is the knowledge of sin .” In ot

Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have,   but what I do have I give you: In the name of   Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.” Acts 3:6 Join me in reading this wonderful report that Gisele from Texas shared with me that demonstrates how you can take authority over your situation by standing on the Word of God: My husband had surgery for hiatal hernia. It was a simple procedure where a piece of mesh was inserted into the affected area and he was able to return home the same day. However, he became increasingly unwell after he got home. He was feeling very bloated, had a lot of pain, and was running a fever. He was admitted back to the hospital and we spent the next week there. It turned out that a bowel obstruction was causing all his problems. Another surgery was planned. Honestly, we felt very discouraged and defeated at that point. Then, I remembered learning a few weeks earlier from Joseph Prince about how Christians should take charge and command sym
