“But let perseverance do its complete work; so that you may be
complete and whole, lacking in nothing. Now
If Any Of You Lacks Wisdom, Let Him Ask God, Who Gives To All Generously And
Without Reproach; And It Will Be Given To Him. . But let him ask in trust,
doubting nothing; for the doubter is like a wave in the sea being tossed and
driven by the wind.”
To: ALL WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR
From: GOD THE FATHER, THE LORD
JESUS CHRIST HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper, that He may be
with you forever. [John 14:16]
Subject: MY WORD; John 1:1 (NKJV) 1 In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God, and the
Word was God. John
1:14 (NKJV) 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us,
and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full
of grace and truth.
1 Corinthians 1:17–31 (AMP) 17 For Christ (the
Messiah) sent me out not to baptize but [to evangelize by] preaching the glad
tidings (the Gospel), and that not with
verbal eloquence, lest the cross of Christ should be deprived of force and
emptied of its power and rendered vain (fruitless, void of value,
and of no effect). 18 For the story and message of the cross
is sheer absurdity and folly to those who are perishing and on
their way to perdition, but to us who are being saved it is the [manifestation
of] the power of God. 19 For
it is written, I will baffle and render useless and destroy the
learning of the learned and the philosophy of the philosophers and the
cleverness of the clever and the discernment of the discerning; I will
frustrate and nullify [them] and bring [them] to nothing. 20
Where is the wise man (the philosopher)? Where is the scribe (the scholar)?
Where is the investigator (the logician, the debater) of this present time and
age? Has not God shown up the nonsense and the folly of this world’s
wisdom? 21 For when the world with all its earthly wisdom failed
to perceive and recognize and know God by means of its own
philosophy, God in His wisdom was pleased through the foolishness of preaching
[salvation, procured by Christ and to be had through Him], to save those who
believed (who clung to and trusted in and relied on Him). 22 For
while Jews [demandingly] ask for signs and miracles and Greeks pursue
philosophy and wisdom, 23
We preach Christ (the Messiah) crucified, [preaching which] to the Jews is
a scandal and an offensive stumbling block [that springs a snare or
trap], and to the Gentiles it is absurd and utterly unphilosophical
nonsense. 24 But to those who are called, whether Jew or Greek
(Gentile), Christ [is] the Power of God
and the Wisdom of God. 25 [This is] because the foolish thing
[that has its source in] God is wiser than men, and the weak thing [that
springs] from God is stronger than men. 26 For [simply] consider
your own call, brethren; not many [of you were considered to be] wise according
to human estimates and standards, not many influential and
powerful, not many of high and noble birth. 27 [No] for God
selected (deliberately chose) what in the world is foolish to put the wise to
shame, and what the world calls weak to put the strong to shame. 28
And God also selected (deliberately chose) what in the world is lowborn and
insignificant and branded and treated with contempt, even the things
that are nothing, that He might depose and bring to nothing the things
that are, 29 So that no mortal man should [have pretense for
glorying and] boast in the presence of God. 30 But it is from Him that you have your life in Christ Jesus, Whom God
made our Wisdom from God, [revealed to us a knowledge of the divine plan of
salvation previously hidden, manifesting itself as] our Righteousness [thus
making us upright and putting us in right standing with God], and our
Consecration [making us pure and holy], and our Redemption [providing our
ransom from eternal penalty for sin]. 31 So then, as it is
written, Let him who boasts and proudly rejoices and glories,
boast and proudly rejoice and glory in the Lord.
James 1:2–12 (CJB) 2 Regard it all as joy, my brothers, when you face various kinds of
temptations; 3 for you know that the testing of your trust produces
perseverance. 4 But let
perseverance do its complete work; so that you may be complete and whole,
lacking in nothing. 5 Now if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask
God, who gives to all generously and without reproach; and it will be given to
him. 6 But let him ask in trust, doubting nothing; for the doubter
is like a wave in the sea being tossed and driven by the wind. 7
Indeed that person should not think that he will receive anything from the
Lord, 8 because he is double-minded, unstable in all his ways. 9
Let the brother in humble circumstances boast about his high position. 10
But let the rich brother boast about his being humbled; since, like a
wildflower, he will pass away. 11 For just as the sun rises with the
sharav and dries up the plant, so that its flower falls off and its
beauty is destroyed, so too the rich person going about his business will
wither away. 12 How blessed
is the man who perseveres through temptation! For after he has passed the
test, he will receive as his crown the Life which God has promised to those who
love him.

Context, reading the entire chapter or book, asking the Holy Spirit of the
Living God to give you the interpretation.
2 Peter 1:16–21
(Williams) 16 For it was not mere stories of fancy
that we followed when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He
received such honor and glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory
there was borne to Him a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom
I take delight.” 18 we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven
while we were with Him on that sacred mountain. 19 So we have the
message of the prophets more certainly guaranteed. Please pay attention to this message as to a
lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning
star rises in your hearts; 20 because you recognize this truth above
all else, that no prophecy in Scripture
is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21 for no prophecy has
ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit
spoke from God.]
Philippians 2:9–11 (The Living
Bible) 9 Yet it was because of this that God raised him up to the heights
of heaven and gave him a name which is above every other name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee shall
bow in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue
shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
