In our nation we know that we have power above any other nation, this is a privilege, not a right. Power, it seems, is not all that Christ was living for. There seems to have been something greater. Outward wisdom will build and establish to some extent. Wisdom will govern and it will defend.
Wisdom is useful in managing public fights and in securing public peace.
For the Christian, the enemy is subtle, wisdom is needed simply to survive. May the Lord grant us such a wisdom as to live wise in this wicked and evil age. A cock has great influence on his own dunghill.
