Holy Spirit and Wisdom


Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
Acts 6:3 KJV

When choosing leaders for any business, there is always extreme caution to select the tight people. When the early Church wanted to select seven men that will handle administrative issues, they had criteria such as honesty, being filled with the Holy Spirit and wisdom. Those who met these criteria will then be chosen as leaders within the Church.

These criteria also apply to any business. Choosing the right team is very critical to success of the business. If you are running a business, you cannot afford to hire based on emotions. If you are looking for contract or a job, you cannot expect to be selected based on emotions.

Leaders need to have values along with the skills they possess. You need to be filled with the Holy Spirit and wisdom. Being filled with the Holy Spirit alone was not sufficient, you need to be wise and to demonstrate wisdom. Wisdom is defined as the quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgement; the quality of being wise. Wisdom is also the fact of being based on sensible or wise thinking. In all your getting, get understanding.
