God is the provider of wisdom.
The heart of wisdom is seeking a conversation with God and loving ourselves enough to pursue what He wants for our life which will always be the right answer.
We go to God, ask, and then trust Him with His answer.
When we ask God, He will give it to us just like he did King Solomon!
James 5:16 says "if any of you need wisdom, ask God and he will give it to you with generosity AND he won't criticize you or show any favoritism.
God is all knowing, all present, all wise, all understanding, all everything.....
Being hooked up with God is so amazing because He will uncover things to us on a daily basis that no one else knows. He will be our secret, behind-the-scenes person--our go-to-guy.
If we are getting our advice from God--the one who made the ocean and the sky, the animals, the birds, the flowers, trees and plants, all the beautiful colors and the beauty that surrounds us (and even us!) --then do we really need to wonder if His wisdom, His advice is not going to be just right for us.
Success with God is different than success with the world.
Our success will depend on whether or not we are listening to God and seeking His plan for our life.

Story of Solomon's Gift of Wisdom
2 Chronicles Chapter 1:7-12
that night God appeared to Solomon and said to him, “Ask for whatever you want me to give you.”
Solomon answered God, “You have shown great kindness to David my father and have made me king in his place. Now, Lord God, let your promise to my father David be confirmed, for you have made me king over a people who are as numerous as the dust of the earth. Give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may lead this people, for who is able to govern this great people of yours?”
God said to Solomon, “Since this is your heart’s desire and you have not asked for wealth, possessions or honor, nor for the death of your enemies, and since you have not asked for a long life but for wisdom and knowledge to govern my people over whom I have made you king, therefore wisdom and knowledge will be given you. And I will also give you wealth, possessions and honor, such as no king who was before you ever had and none after you will have.”
