His Power is dynamite, energetic, forceful and also authoritative. His power goes along with the other attributes of God. It is His power that raised Jesus from the dead and gives credibility to the gospel of the Cross. God’s power is communicable like His Wisdom and is attainable through the cognizance of our weaknesses.

Certain attributes of God are incommunicable such as His – self-sufficiency, immutability, independence, omniscience, etc. These attributes of God are distinct from man and makes God who He is. But there are certain attributes that are communicable and one of them is Wisdom of God.

The wisdom of God is pure, peaceable, gentle, full of mercy, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. God’s wisdom cannot be compared to Man’s as it’s value is more than fine rubies. This wisdom can be available to those who fear God and shun evil.

The law, the knowledge of good and evil exacerbated the condition of mankind. But the wisdom of God emboldens man to stay far from the exposure of evil.
