When we say this, we don’t use words taught to us by human wisdom. We use words taught to us by the Spirit. We use the Spirit’s words to explain spiritual truths.1 Corinthians 2:13 ERV
In this verse Paul reminds us that the truths of God are not learned by human wisdom alone but are taught by the Spirit and expressed in Spirit-led language. When we read Scripture, we’re not just receiving clever ideas but the Spirit’s interpretation that opens our hearts to God’s wisdom. This calls us to humility: listen for the Spirit’s voice, not merely human cleverness; let Scripture shape your thinking and life; and rely on the Spirit to make God’s truths alive and practical. As you meditate on God’s Word, ask the Spirit to translate truth into wisdom you can live out for the good of others and the glory of God.
Holy Spirit, teach and guide us. Holy Spirit, open our minds to understand what Scripture truly says. Teach us with Your words, give us wisdom beyond human cleverness, and help us live out the truths we receive. Remove pride and confusion, fill us with humility to learn, and empower our hearts to obey. Use Your words in us so others see Christ in our lives. Love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus Mighty Precious Name Amen.
