1. The wisdom of God, which is Christ, is always accompanied by prudence. Wisdom is used to create; prudence, to execute. The two go together. Prudence comes with knowledge and counsel. God is His own counselor, and Christ is both the wisdom and prudence of God, for the accomplishment of His will (Prov. 8:12; Isa. 9:6; Eph. 1:8).
2. In creation, Christ was the Father’s architect, proposing all things according to His will. It is clear that man was already part of God’s eternal plan. Although complete and perfect in Himself, God, in His mercy, wanted to create man so that he would also participate in this purpose. We are blessed! We were not created by chance—we were already included in the Father’s good pleasure (Prov. 8:30 31).
3. Christ is the Word Himself. The Spirit of God, hovering over the face of the deep, only came into action when God spoke—the commanding voice was needed for the Spirit to carry out the work with power. Christ is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. He accomplished eternal redemption, died in our place, and was raised by God (John 1:1-2; Col 1:15).
4. “All the churches can be emancipated! Imagine the power that the churches will have when they allow the Spirit to work these miracles in their cities. The churches have great potential in the hands of the Lord. That is why we, both individually and as church, have great potential; let us not hide behind excuses” (2 Pet. 1:1) (Daily Food, book 3, week 2, Wednesday, p. 27).
