Pastor Francis Kaunda’s sermon on Wisdom, Our Help in Times of Trial emphasised that wisdom, as described in James 1:5-8 (NASB), is practical and allows believers to see trials as opportunities for spiritual growth. He explained that Jesus Christ is the true source of wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:30; Colossians 2:3) and that asking for wisdom is essential to navigating hardships without wasting their lessons. Wisdom helps us endure suffering with joy, trusting that trials are for our good and God’s glory. To seek wisdom, believers must ask in faith, without doubt, while studying scripture and seeking guidance from mature Christians. In conclusion, he urged listeners to approach the cross, evaluate the foundation of their faith, and rely on God’s mercy for true wisdom.
