Before that Saul was sent by his father Kish to go search for some lost donkeys. After a couple days of being unsuccessful Saul decided that maybe they should return to his father, Kish before he began to worry about them. One of the servants he brought with him suggested that he visit the prophet Samuel to inquire of the Lord the location of the donkeys. Saul agreed that was a good suggestion. The day before that God had given the word of wisdom to Samuel that Saul would seek him out and that he would be the first king of Israel. After they met Samuel revealed to Saul the purpose of God to make him king. He afterwards Samuel gave to Saul a word of wisdom from God to instruct him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>New Testament examples<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8\u00a0And the next day we that were of Paul&#8217;s company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven; and abode with him. 9\u00a0And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy. 10\u00a0And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus. 11\u00a0And when he was come unto us, he took Paul&#8217;s girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles. 12\u00a0And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem. <strong>&#8212; Acts 21:8-12\u200b<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Agabus was a prophet from Jerusalem was in Caesarea when Paul and his company which included Luke when they visited Phillip the evangelist. He came into the house and took Paul&#8217;s girdle and gave a word of wisdom that the person who owned the girdle would be bound by the Jews and given into the hand of the Romans. And came to pass just as he said. The company with Paul tried to convince to no go to Jerusalem but already knew by his spirit that it was going to happen and he was already prepared to even die for the Lord. The word was more for the people around Paul then for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">27\u00a0And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch. 28\u00a0And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the Spirit that there should be great\u00a0dearth throughout all the world: which came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar. 29\u00a0Then the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief unto the brethren which\u00a0dwelt\u00a0in Judaea: 30\u00a0Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul. <strong>&#8212; Acts 11:28-30<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The prophet Agabus also gave a word of wisdom about a coming famine that came to past a few years later and the disciples in Antioch prepared according to his word and made provision to bless the saints in Judaea and they sent Barnabas and Saul. The one of the main&nbsp;purposes of the word of wisdom is revelation of the mind of the Lord for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>10\u00a0But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit:\u00a0<strong>for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep\u00a0things of God.<\/strong> 11\u00a0For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him?
