Application of God's Word

Larry Lea teaches how to live a life of wisdom based on God's Word. On page 17 he explains there are two types of people, those who are wise and those who are not. His argument is that wisdom is possible to attain and it is the vehicle for arriving at the desired destiny. Lea tells us that God is the source of all wisdom and Jesus personified wisdom in human form. To obtains God's wisdom, a person must humbly ask God for it. Faith means we expect to receive when we ask. A sense of "holy excitement" is found in people who fear the Lord (p. 29). Such individuals want to please God. Dr. Lea reminds us that God created us and "knows what will destroy the bodies, minds, and emotions he created" (p. 40). Consequently, wisdom is alligning ourselves with His plan. Faith is not of the senses, but rather it goes beyond the physical limitations. We're told to seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit in practical matters and expect His response in answer to the promise made by Jesus. Peace accompanies wisdom he reminds us. Similarly, wisdom bears "good fruit" (p. 49).In the third chapter, he describes how wisdom is both a gift and a process. On page 60 he writes "it is a lifelong struggle to put ourselves into a position in which our will will keep willing to do the will of God." This book is full of insight that can make anyone's life better.I give it my highest recommendation.
