WHAT IS WISDOM?     

APRIL Monday 5th

TEXT: Proverbs 4: 1-13

Key verse: Proverbs 8: 12 I wisdom dwell with prudence and find out knowledge of witty inventions.

The Bible itself is a book of wisdom. This means the answer to the above question cannot be exhausted because, in another aspect, Jesus calls Himself wisdom as we learn from our key verse. Wisdom is that which delivers you and gives you victory over your enemies and keeps you away from hell. Wisdom is the ability to behave, speak and interact sweetly among men to their satisfaction, delight, amazement and commendation.

Solomon tells us something vital for our lives in this world and principal to be in our character and to employ in our living. He speaks to us as children and requests that we pay attention to his instructions which he received from David his father. Solomon gained wisdom from the counsel and instructions of David. Having been told that Solomon would be king after him, David gave attention to him and gave him vital instruction and the most vital instruction was that he should get wisdom. This was relevant for his life, his government, his service to God and man for a righteous work.

Wisdom is the principal thing. It is the leading virtue in human relationship and administration. Wisdom is the virtue the righteous derives from the fear of God and obedience to His commandments. The wisdom that is inside of you makes you obey the word of God. Wisdom tells us how to do things. It is a calculation arriving at how you can best handle a matter. It is thinking clear through. Wisdom is what makes a man provide a solution to a given problem. God is the giver of wisdom. He gives wisdom freely to those who seek it to honour Him and to do His will. He preserves wisdom for the righteous.

Wisdom is the ability to think clearly through the enablement of God. The prodigal son when he couldn’t find the food of pigs to eat went and sat down, maybe under a tree and started thinking aloud: “How was it when I was at home? I was not even the one cooking food but the servants were cooking and serving us. Now I am here without food. Not even the food of pigs! I will go back home and plead with my father to forgive me.” That is wisdom. That decision to arise and go back to his father was his survival.

Thought for the day: Wisdom is the ability to think clearly to get a solution.

Song for the day: You are everything Jesus is everything to me (2x)

Bible reading for the day: 
Judges 15-17; Luke 10:1-24

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
