Godly Wisdom in an Unwise World

Pastor Akin defined godly wisdom as the ability to see things from God's perspective and act accordingly. He explained that wisdom is a skill developed over time, not something we're born with. Using Solomon's request for wisdom as an example, he taught that godly wisdom is required to be faithful in faithless times. The sermon focused on how to attain godly wisdom, beginning with asking for it through dependent prayer. Pastor Akin emphasized that many decisions require wisdom rather than just obedience, particularly in the gray areas of life where Scripture doesn't give explicit commands.
