TOPIC: THE DIVIDENDS OF WISDOM

OVERVIEW SCRIPTURE:

If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct. – Ecclesiastes 10:10

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The absence of wisdom is the abundance of losses.

Wisdom is supernatural access to Divine strategies. It is the secret of success and progress in life. It is the ability to apply relevant knowledge in an insightful way, especially to different situations.

The secret behind the making of most people who walked with God and were outstanding in their generations was wisdom.

Wisdom is a critical requirement for a profitable life in time and in eternity. It is not possible to experience a profitable life without wisdom. So, the absence of wisdom is the abundance of losses, including the loss of souls in eternity in hell fire.

Wisdom is also the mystery behind outstanding results in every realm of life. Ecclesiastes 8:1 reveals that wisdom is the secret behind the shining of man. Therefore, if you want to be outstanding in every area of life, you need the wisdom of God.

Now, how can you access wisdom from God?

The Bible reveals that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10).
Therefore, where the fear of the Lord is lacking, access to the wisdom of God is denied.

Receive the wisdom to excel in Jesus’ Name.

Remember this: The absence of wisdom is the abundance of losses.

ASSIGNMENTS:

1. Determine to develop a desperate desire for wisdom.

2. Abstain from sin in order to access the wisdom of God.

PRAYER: O LORD, I make demands on Your Wisdom. I ask for forgiveness from every act of foolishness that I may have exhibited in times past in Jesus’ Name.
