INTRODUCTION
When we have the wisdom of men we only have a little understanding. In 1Corinthians 13: 11-12 the Apostle Paul states; When I was a child, I spoke as a child; I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. 13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love. Now you may say what does this have to do about wisdom? I will say everything! This is the only way to know the wisdom of God in our lives. We know wisdom by His love for man kind. This is why when it comes to change most people don’t like it especially in their lives but are ok with it for someone else.

MAIN MESSAGE:
1 Cor 13:11-12; Ps 111:10; Pro 4:5-13; Pro 4:23; 1 Cor 1:24-25; Col 2:2-4; 1 Cor 2:10-16; Acts 6:8-10; 

Dictionary for the word wisdom; Wisdom is the principals of right living made into action; Wisdom; wise ness; skillfulness; whether in the artistic sense (craftsmanship) or the moral sense (skills for living correctly). 

1. It unites God, the Source of all understanding, with daily life, where the principles of right living are put into practice. 
2. Therefore, one is exhorted to make God the starting point in any quest for wisdom (Psalm 111:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of all wisdom) and to seek wisdom above all else if he would live successfully, Proverbs 4:5-13, 23. 
3. Wisdom is a permanent characteristic of Jesus the Messiah, 
1 Corinthians 1:24-25 says; 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 are stronger than men. Colossians 2:2-4 don’t get caught up in other people’s delusions of their so called perfect arguments be wise.
4. The Apostle Paul makes this statement in 1Corinthians 2:10-16 here the Apostle Paul is referring to supernatural understanding verses the Natural understanding of man.
5. In the book of Acts 6:8-10 And Stephen, full of grace and power, was performing great wonders and signs among the people.
6.  But some men from what was called the Synagogue of the Freedmen, including both Cyrenians and Alexanddrians, and some from Cilicia and Asia, rose up and argued with Stephen. 
7.  But they were unable to cope with the wisdom and the Spirit with which he was speaking. When we walk in the complete wisdom of God, in the Holy Spirit, men cannot understand what is being said because the wisdom of God is higher than the wisdom or understanding of men.
    
The very nature of God’s wisdom renders the wisdom of this world inadequate, for it is not of this age. The word Mystery in the NT does not mean mysterious of difficult to understand, but denotes a truth hidden in God’s mind until He chooses to disclose it. Believers live by a secret, the essence of which is Christ and His glorious purposes for the world. The knowledge of the things of God is more of a spiritual than an intellectual nature, there is no basis for glorying in any religious leader for his supposed superior grasp of reality.
1Cor.2:10 God has revealed: two elements are necessary to know the things of God: a revelation from God by the Spirit, and an appropriate spiritual response by man.

CONCLUSION:
We live in a day when wisdom is not prevalent especially the wisdom of God among men. Our world has very little understanding of God let alone His righteousness. Unless God reveals Himself to man through the wisdom of Christ Jesus (the Messiah, Savior), man cannot and will not know Gods wisdom any other way. Even in the Church we cannot fool ourselves with knowledge alone it must be revealed to us by the Holy Spirit. So to have Gods wisdom we must walk in the knowledge of our Savior Jesus Christ and truly know Him who is all in all.
