Message
Wisdom which is the most principal thing to every
man especially a soul winner is the right application of knowledge. The
scripture says he that winneth soul is wise; not the wisdom of the world that
is full of deception and how to cheat others, but of God in truth and pure
conscience.
To obtain this godly wisdom, we must ask God in
faith without wavering; without any iota of doubt; with full assurance in God;
with full confidence in our immutable God who gave Solomon, Joseph, Daniel and
disciples to mention but a few.
To doubt while asking makes you a double minded
person and if you are like that you cannot be stable for the scripture that was
written by God’s inspiration confirms that and that by so doing you cannot
please God.
Daniel, Joseph and even the disciples of the Lord
were so stable that they looked unto God of Jacob alone, their conditions did
not make them sought for God of the strange land they found themselves and
because they truly knew their God they did exploits as their faith was honoured
by God himself.
Wisdom
is a principal thing to a heaven bound believer, therefore get wisdom and in
all thy getting get understanding. Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore
get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.[Prov 4:7]
The Disciples of Christ were wise because they asked
questions about things they do not understand when it remains them and Christ
alone. If you do not understand any part of the scripture you read, then seek
for its true meaning and understand it so that when the need arises you can
rightly apply it and you will be approved of God.
For proper understanding, read books, Bible
commentaries, Christian literatures and magazines coupled with prayers and
meditations, and abreast yourself with knowledge that can help you win souls
for the Lord. Be not babies in understanding godly matters written in the
perfect law of liberty, but in malicious matters be like a babe.
The most needful thing is the word and its
understanding, let nothing takes this away from you and be the doer of the word
for by so doing your wisdom will come forth for people to see and glorify God on
your behalf because they know that only God can give such a perfect gift to a stable
man.
Confession of the Day: - I will seek after
the word of God, understands it and apply it in all my endeavours by the grace of
God.
Prayer Point: - Father, make me wise
through the knowledge of your word in Jesus name [Amen]
