However, when God spoke of wisdom, He did not mean worldly wisdom. The Apostle Paul also makes it clear that there is more than one kind of wisdom.
The Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:19-25
“The message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: ‘I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.’
Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the…world. Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for [worldly] wisdom…Christ [is] the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength.”

Paul was firm in his belief that wisdom is available to all believers. Here is a portion of one of Paul’s best known prayers;

“I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know Him better.”
32. What does Paul pray?
