Wisdom and understanding

The instruction of wisdom enables us to discern the more excellent way on the pathway of our pilgrimage. Notably, the focus of our discipleship is to learn what it means to abide in the fellowship of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This fellowship is the kingdom of God. As we learn the culture of the kingdom of God, we are gaining understanding. Understanding is the fellowship of Yahweh. The wise man explained that ‘the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding’. Pro 9:10. Likewise, the apostle John declared that ‘the Son of God has come to give us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.’ 1Jn 5:20.

We need to incline our ear to wisdom so that we can also apply our heart to gaining understanding. We demonstrate that we are gaining understanding as sons of God because we are growing in our capacity to participate in the fellowship of Yahweh. The fellowship of Yahweh is a fellowship of offering and worship. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit make offering, by the capacity of Eternal Spirit, for the purpose of revealing each Other and accomplishing Their covenant purpose. Offering is the expression of Their faith which works by love.

The fruit of this fellowship of offering is worship, because the name and sanctification of each Person in the Godhead is revealed and glorified. During his three‑day and three‑night journey to Mount Moriah, Abraham expressed faith for participation in the fellowship of Yahweh when he declared, ‘The lad and I will go yonder and worship, and we will come back to you.’ Gen 22:5. Abraham’s participation in the fellowship of Yahweh on Mount Moriah demonstrated that he had gained understanding.
