IMPORTANCE OF WISDOM IN SOUL WINNING

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: IMPORTANCE OF WISDOM IN SOUL WINNING  

TEXT: PROVERBS 4:5-9 

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 4th

Key verse: Ecclesiastes 10:10 If the iron is blunt and he does not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct.
The Bible makes it known to us the place of wisdom in our Christian living. Wisdom is highly required to preach this gospel and win souls to the Lord Jesus Christ. If you are using a knife that is blunt to peel cassava, it will not be easy. You will put in a lot of effort, and a lot of energy to peel the cassava. You will suffer frustration because the knife is blunt. You have a blunt cutlass and you want to cut grasses or cut down a tree; what a great and fruitless energy you are going to apply. You will get discouraged.
The reason why the churches of God are getting discouraged in evangelism at this time is that “the Iron is blunt.” Instead of burning energy, spending money on outreaches without fruits, and becoming discouraged, sit down, sharpen your knife and you will see yourself performing well. When you see the fruits you will have joy and more interest in evangelism. Therefore you need wisdom because wisdom is profitable to direct.
Look at our field of evangelism. The world is turning away from God because of sinful civilization. The world is full of churches yet there is much argument, resistance, and attack on the truth. Through wisdom, we shall win some to Christ. So apply wisdom. The Bible tells us that he that wins souls must be a wise man.
Daniel 12:2-3 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life and some to everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament, and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever.
Can you see what wisdom can do? If you want to turn the people to righteousness, there must be wisdom.

Thought for the day: Wisdom is profitable to direct.

Song for the day: I will go with Jesus everywhere, no matter the roughness of...

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
