”Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces” (Hosea 8:14).
When man forgets God, he builds monuments to his own glory. There is,
however, a better way which brings glory to God - “Those who live in
accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit
desires ... The mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace” (Romans 8:5-6). We must come often to “the fountain of wisdom” (Proverbs 18:4)
if our minds are to be controlled by the Spirit. It is the Spirit’s
work to lead us to Christ, the living Word, through Scripture, the
written Word. Through Scripture, we are made “wise for salvation” (2 Timothy 3:15). In Christ, we find “wisdom”, true wisdom, the wisdom of God (1 Corinthians 1:30).
