Wise Ways | 90 Days of Wisdom | Sarat Yellasiri
Pastor Sarat continues Wiseways by exploring the limitations of wisdom without obedience. He explains that while Solomon, the wisest man, highly valued wisdom, his life ultimately demonstrated that wisdom directed towards self-interest can lead to ruin. Highlighting that Solomon multiplied horses, wives, and wealth against God's direct instructions, a flaw that led to the division of his kingdom. He challenges the notion that wisdom alone is a guarantee of success, pointing out that without a foundation of surrender to God's will, even the most intelligent person can fall astray.
In contrast, Jesus, though possessing ultimate wisdom, prioritized obedience to God's will above all else, radically changing the world in just three years of ministry. This central difference, Pastor Sharat argues, is the key to true success and fulfillment. The sermon challenges listeners to consider areas in their lives—such as relationships, finances, and time—where they might be prioritizing their own wisdom over God's commands. He emphasizes that a lack of surrender can harden the conscience and lead to negative long-term consequences, ultimately calling for a life of intentional obedience.
