  • Wisdom Beyond Years

    ByPrasad

    Age doesn’t give wisdom — closeness to God does. In Job 32, a young man named Elihu waited until the older voices had finished, then said something that cut through everything: “It is the spirit in a person, the breath of the Almighty, that gives them understanding.” The Hebrew word for understanding here means far more than knowing facts. It’s perception, discernment, the ability to see what others miss — and according to Elihu, it is given by God, not earned by years.

  • The Fear of the Lord Is Wisdom

    ByPrasad

    Job searches through the whole of chapter 28 for wisdom — the depths of the earth, the place where gold is refined, the hidden caverns no bird has ever seen. Every source gives the same answer: wisdom is not here. Then God speaks: “The fear of the Lord — that is wisdom, and to shun evil is understanding.” Today’s devotional explores what that fear actually is (not terror — awe), what it produces in us, and the personal testimony that the hardest seasons are often where God is doing the most.
