SPIRIT OF WISDOM I Corinthians 2:6-10 Devotional:- “But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory” (V.7) NKJV The mind of every man is created to operate wisdom even at the level of common sense. This is one of the reasons why many are poor. The reason why this is so is that most human beings do not know how to empower their mind for wisdom with the right and quality information. They rather believe that life is all about making do with everything that comes their way. Wrong information and association have made many minds dull (Proverbs 13:20).

l Corinthians 10:6-13 Read: “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it” (v. 13)
One of the easiest ways to make us learn and grow in the wisdom of God is by God taking us through challenging seasons. During challenges, the devil will always want to make us feel that God does not love us. The Bible says, he that the father love he chastise. Because of the season of difficulties, many have turned back from the Lord and have followed the devil.
As a child of God, please understand that there is no man or woman that can love you as God does and He has the best plan for you (Jeremiah 29:11). That you are going through a trying time now, does not mean He hates you. Rather, tough times are times of trial to prove you and to train you to be strong (Deuteronomy 8:2-3, Genesis 3:22).
So, cheer up in your situation. God is working out a mathematics. The journey of Joseph was truly rough, but it was the mathematics of God to enthrone him. Accept the love of God, seek the light of the word of God, and keep decreeing the word of God in prayers. Obey the Lord’s instruction and you will always overcome every challenges of life. Surely, you will receive promotion after every trial if you stand to the end (James 1:2). Peace!
Prayer: Lord, help me to wait on you till I see my victory
“STANDING WITH THE GREATEST GOD WILL ALWAYS TURN ALL THINGS GREAT FOR YOU”
FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans? If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.
MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.
ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
