There are two powerful scriptures that gave an insight about one of the important things to possess as a child of God:
Job 32:8
8 But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
Isaiah 11:2 And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;
These two bible verses show us that what gives us understanding and what makes us wise is not physical knowledge, but knowledge of God! Breathe of God
Two things to note; the spirit of God and understanding. It posits that it is possible to have the spirit of God, yet act foolishly. Daddy G.O. (Pastor E.A. Adeboye) will always emphasise that if there is a name you should not mistakenly call the devil, is been a fool. If the devil is not a fool, why should I/why should you?
How can I be wise despite having the Spirit of God? Isaiah 11:2 already gave the answer, the Spirit of God is capable of doing the listed; make you wise and understand the wisdom displayed. You come to this understanding when you fear God and pay attention to His counsel and the might of God. Zechariah 4:6 makes it clear that we cannot get things done by our might and power, but by the Spirit of God
This then implies that, total dependence on the Word of God and His inspiration makes us display great wisdom and when we fear God, we act in understanding.
Many people display wisdom they do not understand, Meanwhile, the level God wants us to operate is where we understand the wisdom of God in relation to what He is doing in our lives and in our generation.
That is why you will see a spiritual, tongue speaking, demon chasing fellow wallowing in failure or poverty…now note that, despite the presence of the Spirit of God in this person, what is lacking in this wonderful child of God?
This and many other questions are what we will be dealing with in this series. Stay tuned and click on notification button so you can be alerted of our new posts.
Questions like:
How can the Word of God come alive in me?
How do I know I have understanding of the Word of God?
And if I know I have the understanding, how can I make it work for me? Etc.
Your faith will be tested. Even your wisdom will be tested. How are you sure of what you are sure that you are sure of?
May the Word of God come alive in us, our family, ministry, businesses, career, academics, endeavours in Jesus name.
Prayer: Father! concerning this situation (mention it) in my life; Father! Speak Lord! Breath on my marriage, breath on my womb, breathe on my finances, breath on my ideas, breath on my skills, breath on my intellect… SPEAK Lord! in Jesus name.
Confession: There is a king in me. I am the head and not the tail. I am a lender never a borrower. I am above, never beneath. I am successful never a failure. I am God’s general, never feeble. I am strong, never ill. I am focused and wise, never confused in Jesus name. Confess great manifestations into your life.
Special Appeal: Please don’t miss subsequent series in this month of March (There is indeed A King in You). It will be amazingly beautiful and expository to your walk with God and successes in this year.
