The Wisdom option
How did Gideon move from scared and defeated to victorious? What changed? What was different for those last 40 years? HE SOUGHT WISDOM FROM GOD… How else do you explain this? The Bible talks about wisdom a lot! “Wisdom is more precious than rubies. Nothing else you could ever want is as valuable.” Prov. 8:11 “Getting wisdom is the most important thing you can do.” Prov. 4:7 “If you become wise, you’ll be the one to benefit. But if you scorn wisdom, you’ll be the one to suffer.” Prov. 9:12
From Series: "The Hidden Option"
We live in a polarized world. We want everything to fit in box A or B, option 1 or 2. Fight or flight. Black or white. Left or right. But the Bible is filled with unexpected, hidden options. In this two-week series, “The Hidden Option” will explore how God can take seemingly impossible situations and use them for his glory. Our God is bigger than just two options. Jesus is the lion and the lamb. God is completely just and He extends grace. Those things seem like impossibilities, but they are actually hidden options. By learning to find hidden options, you can become a better spouse, a better employee, a better friend, and even a better follower of Christ.
