Day 323: NOV 19TH: PRAISE IMPARTS DIVINE WISDOM

Scripture

Psalm 111:10

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments; his praise endureth for ever.

DAILY WISDOM

True praise enlightens the spirit. It opens the gates of wisdom and brings divine understanding for victorious living. 

MESSAGE

Wisdom is one of the most valuable treasures of the Kingdom. It shapes destiny, protects life, and defines greatness. Divine wisdom doesn’t come only from study; it comes from experience. One of the strongest ways to gain it is through praise. Each time you engage in praise, you tap into divine perspective and soundness of mind that only the Spirit of God can give. 

 

When a believer praises with revelation, their heart connects with God's heartbeat, and their mind receives insight from above. Psalm 111:10 states, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments; his praise endureth for ever.” Here, the connection between reverence, obedience, and praise reflects divine intelligence. The one who knows how to praise properly learns how to think divinely. 

 

Praise is not merely a joyful sound; it is a spiritual code that unlocks divine intelligence. Every moment of genuine praise becomes a classroom in the Spirit. As you lift up the name of the Lord, He begins to reveal mysteries, ideas, directions, and instructions that change your thinking and decision-making. What study cannot uncover, praise can reveal in a single divine moment. 

 

Solomon, the wisest man of his time, understood this principle. He was a man of worship and melody. His songs were filled with insight, and his life radiated divine brilliance. When the Queen of Sheba visited him, she saw wisdom presented beautifully and excellently. This wisdom came from constant fellowship in God’s presence, a place where praise is natural and unending. 

 

It is impossible to remain foolish in an atmosphere of genuine praise. When you praise, you are not just thanking God for what He has done; you are positioning your mind for divine ideas. The Holy Spirit starts to activate creative thoughts, new insights, and innovative concepts in your heart. This is why worshippers often become inventors, creators, and visionaries. The light of God shines brightest in an atmosphere filled with gratitude and respect. 

 

In James 1:5, it is written, “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.” When you praise, you are not only asking; you are inviting. God enjoys revealing Himself to those who enjoy Him. Praise attracts divine guidance. It draws insight into the deeper aspects of life. 

 

Remember that divine wisdom is not the same as earthly knowledge. It is the supernatural ability to interpret situations, recognize seasons, and make choices that align with divine purpose. This kind of wisdom cannot be found in books or laboratories. It is birthed through communion with the All-wise God. When you continually dwell in His presence through praise, your life begins to show His wisdom. 

 

In Proverbs 9:10, the Bible says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.” The fear of the Lord is expressed through reverent praise and worship. When your praise reflects holy respect, God places His nature within you. Divine wisdom is not given to casual or careless worshippers. It is given to those whose hearts are filled with love and honor for God. 

 

Praise also sharpens discernment. It clears confusion and allows your spiritual senses to function accurately. Many believers lose their way because they complain instead of praising. When you replace grumbling with praise, divine clarity fills your heart. God does not speak in environments of frustration; He speaks in environments of joy. 

 

Paul and Silas understood this truth. In prison, they did not cry; they sang. As they sang, not only did the prison doors open, but divine revelation flowed. They recognized that praise was not just a song, it was a pathway. It was insight. It was understanding. 

 

Beloved, you cannot be praiseful and be confused. A person of praise will always know what to do because divine wisdom flows continuously. Praise generates the light of divine understanding. Each time you praise, your mind becomes a channel for divine ideas. 

 

When you become a person of praise, you rise above confusion. You start to speak the language of divine intelligence. Praise creates ideas. Praise brings forth strategies. Praise imparts divine wisdom.
