Wisdom of God
Charles Buck Theological Dictionary
or Is that grand attribute of his nature by which he knows and orders all things for the promotion of his glory and the good of his creatures. This appears in all the works of his hands, Psalms 104:24; in the dispensations of his providence, Psalms 97:1-2; in the work of redemption, Ephesians 3:10; in the government and preservation of his church in all ages, Psalms 107:7 . This doctrine should teach us admiration, Revelation 15:3-4; trust and confidence, Psalms 9:10; prayer, Proverbs 3:5-6; submission, Hebrews 12:1-29; praise, Psalms 103:1-4 .
