Sabedoria
A sabedoria é um dos temas mais ricos da Bíblia. O temor do Senhor é seu princípio, e buscá-la vale mais que ouro ou prata. Deus promete dar sabedoria generosamente a quem pedir com fé.
O princípio da sabedoria
O temor do Senhor é o início de toda sabedoria verdadeira. Quem reverencia a Deus aprende a viver com discernimento e prudência.
Sabedoria como dom de Deus
A verdadeira sabedoria vem do alto. Deus a concede generosamente a quem pede com fé, sem lançar em rosto a fraqueza humana.
5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it shall be given to him.

A sabedoria do alto
A sabedoria que vem de Deus é pura, pacífica, amável, cheia de misericórdia e de bons frutos. Ela se opõe à sabedoria terrena e mundana.
17 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

13 Is there anyone wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct [that] his works [are] in meekness of wisdom.
6 However, we speak wisdom among those that are mature, but not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are being destroyed.7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the [wisdom] having been hidden, which God foreordained before the ages for our glory,
23 but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness,24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
18 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool, that he may become wise.

2 that their hearts may be encouraged, being joined together in love, and to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to a full knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ,3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Direção e discernimento
Deus guia os humildes na justiça e ensina seu caminho aos mansos. Ele promete dirigir nossos passos quando confiamos nele de todo o coração.
A Palavra como fonte de sabedoria
A Palavra de Deus é lâmpada para os pés e luz para o caminho. Meditar nas Escrituras nos dá entendimento superior ao dos mestres.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Sabedoria prática para o dia a dia
A sabedoria se aplica em cada decisão: nas finanças, nos relacionamentos, no trabalho e no uso do tempo. Vivamos como sábios, não como insensatos.

23 And whatever you may do, work [it] from your soul, as to the Lord and not to men,24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. For you serve the Lord Christ.
O valor da sabedoria
A sabedoria é mais preciosa que rubis. Quem a encontra, encontra a vida e alcança o favor do Senhor. Nada se compara a ela.
A sabedoria e a soberania de Deus
Os caminhos de Deus são mais altos que os nossos. Sua sabedoria é insondável, eterna e infinitamente superior ao entendimento humano.
33 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and[ ]knowledge of God! How unsearchable [are] His judgments and untraceable [are ]His ways!

28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to [His ]purpose.
20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,21 to Him [be] glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as sons: "My son, do not despise the discipline of the LORD, nor be discouraged when you are reproved;6 For whom the LORD loves He disciplines, and scourges every son whom He receives."
8 Finally, brothers, as many things as are true, as many as are honorable, as many as are just, as many as are pure, as many as are lovely-if there is any virtue and if there is any praise-meditate on these things.
34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own affairs. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
42 The queen of the South shall rise up in the judgment with this generation and she shall condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, a greater[ than] Solomon [is] here.

15 for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to contradict nor to withstand.
24 Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment."
14 [you] who do not know [what will] happen tomorrow. For what is your life? For it will be a vapor that appears for a little [time], but then also disappears.
