Exalt her [wisdom], and she shall promote thee: She shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her. She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: A crown of glory shall she deliver to thee. Proverbs 4:8-9
Wisdom is a spirit which guides you into the right paths. It gives you the right attitudes, the right decisions, and creates the right atmosphere for your reigning in life.
This was the spirit at work in Solomon that made all the conditions around Israel during his reign devoid of any war, and economically favourable.
Most times, when we think of Solomon, we feel that he mentally had good ideas to make money and prosper. We think of this as how wisdom worked in his life. However, it was more than that.
The Bible never recorded Israel having issues with their neighbours, or being involved in any war during his reign. During his reign, gold and silver became as common as stones in Israel (2 Chronicles 1:15).
This was more than just mental prowess. The only way such things could happen is that the spirit of wisdom dominated the kingdom’s politics and economy during his reign.
Wisdom is a spirit that causes you to speak, act and do the right things that would bring you favour and increase in all parts of your life. It is a spirit that guides you into the right and best path for success. It is a force that leads you into the right path of success and greatness in life, even if you do not understand all that is happening to you.
Wisdom was at work in the life of Joseph in the Bible. From an early age. He was forced into Egypt, seemingly from the evil intention of his brothers. However, the spirit of wisdom was already guiding him toward his destiny. He went into prison from a false accusation, but the spirit of wisdom was still with him, guiding him into his destiny, the same prison became the place where he met those who told Pharaoh about him.
The spirit of wisdom kept Daniel from the lions in the pit being able to touch him, because it would affect his destiny. The spirit of wisdom will always keep you from anything that can negatively and permanently affect your destiny.
But how do you activate this spirit in your life? You can activate the spirit of wisdom by spending time with the Lord and studying the Word while speaking to Him, and listening for His voice.
You can also activate the spirit of Wisdom by simply asking for it.
‘If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. ‘ James 1:5
Keep spending time with him and speaking in tongues. Even if things seem like they are not going your way right now, the spirit of wisdom is at work in your life, protecting you from harm, and guiding you into God’s glory manifesting in your life, hallelujah.

Proverbs 3:13-18 ESV Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold.

Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
