Several months ago, we were blessed to have Dr Mel Blackaby come to serve as Pastor of First Baptist Church of Jonesboro. As part of the Blackaby family, I knew we were in for some insightful Bible teaching, but it didn't take long to figure out that his messages had profound meaning that my friends in the 'blog world' might benefit from too. For that purpose, and a desire of my own to have all my notes in one place, I decided to start a new blog that contained these messages. There will also be a few things from other speakers that I've heard over time, but those will be noted on the sidebar as they are added. I hope you get as much from these messages as I do!

The Remarkable Power of Wisdom

Daniel 2


Knowledge speaks - Wisdom listens

1.  Difficult times are a common experience
     Human wisdom will always be limited by incomplete human knowledge

2.  Difficult times require prudence and discretion (wisdom & tact)
     God gives wisdom according to His all-knowing and ever-present reality

3.  Difficult times call for courageous action
     Life's circumstances don't reflect reality

Godly wisdom gives courage to act with confidence.
