The Need For Divine Wisdom

The Need For Divine Wisdom
Proverbs 3:13 – Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

Intelligence is not wisdom. Divine wisdom is taking godly decisions. Any wisdom without the fear of God is earthly wisdom and earthly wisdom will never bring long lasting peace, joy and satisfaction.

Proverbs 4:23, Ecclesiastes 9:16-18

Divine wisdom enables human to excel and to be distinguished among his or fellows. Divine wisdom controls the tongue and divine wisdom is better than weapon of war because wars are not fought and won by weapon nor wealth but with divine wisdom.

James 4:8, Psalm 25:14

No fear of God, no wisdom. Have the fear of God so that your wisdom will not be corrupted by the devil.

Ephesians 1:17-18, Colossians 1:9-10, Romans 10:2

Have the knowledge of God and the Godly wisdom. The sons of Aaron lack wisdom and they were destroyed – Leviticus 16:1, Hosea 4:6.

If you lack wisdom ask from God and if you want your life to be good then have the wisdom of God – James 1:5. Shalom!

Don’t Look Back!

Don’t Look Back! Luke 9:62 – And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. Have you answered the call to serve God as His son and daughter? Have you totally chosen Jehovah as your God? Have you decided to leave your old ways and cleave unto God? If yes! Beloved I congratulate you. But hope you took the cost of your choice?? [Please refer to yesterday’s sermon] God doesn’t want us to look back when we have answered the call, why? This is because of the following: Firstly, it brings shame to the body of Christ and makes people to despise Christ. Looking back is to be lukewarm and to depart from the first love! [Revelation 2:4, Revelation 3:16] Secondly, looking back makes the believer to suffer backwardness spiritually and physical. The faith of the believer suffers and takes a longer time to be rebuilt. [Hebrews 6:4]. Thirdly, looking back will make the person not to complete whatever he or she has started. This is w...

Faulty Covenant

Faulty Covenant Hebrews 8:7 [7] For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. Covenant as a strong bound that is not easily broken can be faulty. The covenant made betwixt God and the Israelites was a faulty covenant in this time of Grace but perfect in it's time. The covenant wasn't to lead sinner's unto Christ's but it was to lead them unto their destructive end quickly. The old covenant was a period of darkness and pains (because it was more by works and not by grace) but thanks to God who invalidated the old covenant and gave us the covenant of Grace where Jesus is the mediator no longer Moses. God spoken of the new covenant long ago in Jeremiah 31:31; it was manifested in Christ. This new covenant brings light to the soul. Every covenant that do not bring light to your life, be destroyed now by fire! Whatever makes you to live by work and not by grace be destroyed! For God's name sake, let everyt...

A Song of Praise and Thanksgiving

Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves, We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good; — Psalm 100:3-5 NKJV A Song of Praise and Thanksgiving Enjoy the verse insights on this passage from The MacArthur Study Bible. Verses 100:1–5 This well–known psalm, emphasizing the universal nature of God's kingship, is a benediction to the series of psalms which are occupied with the Lord's kingdom rule (Psalms 93, 95–100).

The LORD, He is God. A confession that Israel's covenant God, Jehovah, is the only true God. Made us. Though God's actual creation of every human bei...
