Eph 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Eph 1:15-18 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
KJV
To have the Spirit of wisdom and a revelation of the knowledge of God is indeed a great spiritual blessing. But who can have it and how can they get it? Every born again child of God can have it and it comes by a consistent life of Bible reading and prayer. While that may seem to be the simplest of things it is also the hardest to maintain in our Christian life day by day. What can be so hard about reading my Bible and praying daily? It is what Satan attacks the most because he knows that it is the most needed in our lives. Just to allow God to speak to us through His Word each day is vital. God no longer speaks through angels to his children, no prophet is going to stand before us, but God does speak through his Word and we need a Word from Him each day. Then we need to talk to Him, really talk to God in prayer. Not order God to do things, not tell God why He should have done something different, but reverently talk to God. Tell God of our needs, thank Hid for what He has done, and humble ask for His help and direction day by day. If w do this, if we are consistent in it, then we will have wisdom from above, we will get closer to God, and we will know Him. How consistent are you in reading your Bible and in prayer?
