Christ Your Wisdom Will Prosper You And Astound Others

1 Corinthians 1:30

30But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God…

It is believed that there has never been a richer king than King Solomon in history. God gave him wisdom that not only made him wise in matters of justice, but also brought him gold and silver. (1 Kings 3:12–13)
Solomon was so rich that he built God a temple that would cost over US$200 billion today. Now, that amount only covers what Solomon spent on the temple, not his personal assets. It was estimated that his daily food expenses came to over US$17,000, and his priests wore garments costing over US$10 million.
We can go on talking about the riches of King Solomon but the Bible tells us that there is one greater than Solomon. (Matthew 12:42) His name is Jesus, and He is the most prosperous Man who ever lived, and who will ever live.
If there was a need to feed the hungry, He simply multiplied whatever food was placed in His hands. On one occasion, He multiplied five loaves and two fish to feed 5,000 men, not counting women and children, and incredibly still had 12 baskets full of leftovers. (Matthew 14:15–21)
If any of His own faced any lack, it was not long before abundant provision flowed to them. Once, when His disciples caught nothing after a whole night of fishing, He merely spoke a word of command and schools of fish obeyed, swimming towards His disciples’ boat until they had a net-breaking, boat-sinking load of fish. (Luke 5:1–7) When it came to financial need, He provided the money, even if it took a fish to bring it to them! (Matthew 17:24–27)
My friend, this same Jesus has become for you wisdom from God. If you are a businessman, with Christ in you, you have a wisdom greater than all the business gurus of the world. Christ in you, a homemaker, gives you wisdom greater than all the experts behind home magazines. And if you are a student, Christ in you will manifest wisdom greater than all the brilliant minds in the academic world.
Beloved, believe that because Jesus, God’s wisdom, is in you, there is no reason why you cannot prosper today, and astound the world in the same way that Solomon did!
