SPIRIT OF WISDOM

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).

FILLED WITH WISDOM

FILLED WITH WISDOM     

Deuteronomy 34: 1-12
Devotional:-“Now Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him; so the children of Israel heeded him, and did as the LORD had commanded Moses” (v.9) NKJV


    A man is said to be growing when he is filled with wisdom (Luke 2:40). This is a normal demonstration of growth. A major trouble in the life of most people today is the inability to grow in wisdom. It becomes more challenging when they cannot locate someone to counsel them in the way of wisdom. Since most people are not growing in wisdom, they cannot raise others in wisdom. Because, no man can give what he does not have. When parents are not filled with wisdom, the children cannot. When teachers do not possess wisdom, the students cannot.

    We read in the testimony of Joshua today that he was filled with wisdom. So also is Jesus, Solomon and the Apostles. Wisdom is evidential in taking wise action. It may not be easy to grow wisdom just by learning or reading about it. It is better given by following a wise master (Proverbs 13:20). Man is slow in learning; we are people who need to fail to succeed. That is why we need someone to show us, instruct us and correct us. 

    Joshua related closely with Moses, to be filled with wisdom, the laying of hands was not all it takes. That is an impartation. There is a need to humble yourself to relate with the wise and you will manifest the wisdom of God (Proverbs 13:20). This simply means, the kind of people you are relating with, will go a long way to determine who you will be in life. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord impart your wisdom into my life.

FRUITFULNESS

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

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

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.
