Get The Word…Get Wisdom

-
If you’re going to live a victorious, prosperous and
glorious life, you have to know, understand and live
by the Word. The Lord Jesus once made a remarkable
statement to the Jews, saying, “…Ye do err, not knowing the
scriptures, nor the power of God” (Matthew 22:29). Many
miss it, and function outside of the wisdom of God because
they’re ignorant of God’s Word. That’s why the accurate
teaching of the Word is so important. God’s Word empowers
and propels you to live the transcendent life.
The Word of God is the wisdom of God. It doesn’t
matter what you’ve experienced in life, who your advisers are,
how many books you might have read, or what you’ve seen
in life, if you don’t have the Word in you, you don’t have
the wisdom of God, and therefore can’t excel. The wisdom
of men may take you some distance, but only the wisdom of
God will take you all the way.
Wisdom is the revelation of God; it’s insight into reality.
The knowledge of God’s Word inspires the wisdom of God in
you to know, say, and do the right thing, at the right time, in
God’s way. Consider Moses, as he stood by the Red Sea with
the children of Israel, God said, “Stretch your hand over the
water, and divide it!”
If he had consulted with scientists and philosophers,
they probably would have queried him with indignation:
“What do you mean God told you to divide such expanse of
waters with a rod in your hand?“ They certainly would have
thought he lost his mind. Howbeit, Moses already received

the Word from the Lord, and was therefore propelled by
wisdom. He did as he was instructed, and the sea
parted—congealed on both sides—for the children of Israel to
walk through on dry ground (Exodus 14:21-22). It was the
manifestation of the wisdom of God.
True wisdom is of the Spirit, and comes by the Word.
And through meditation, the Word of God takes root in your
spirit, producing in you “phronesis” (Greek)—the wisdom or
mindset of the righteous.
PRAYER
Dear heavenly Father, thank you
for the wisdom that’s been made
available through your Word.
Christ has been made unto me
wisdom; therefore, I walk in
divine wisdom. I have
supernatural ability to
comprehend spiritual realities,
and walk in your perfect will
always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

What does the Bible say about setting goals?

-

The Bible offers a balanced approach to setting goals that includes making plans yet doing so with wisdom and humility. Jesus’ illustration of building a tower implies that it is a good thing to have set goals ( Luke 14:28 ). To live with no motivation or planning is not God’s desire.  Proverbs 6:6-11  says, “Go to the ant, O sluggard;     consider her ways, and be wise. Without having any chief,     officer, or ruler, she prepares her bread in summer     and gathers her food in harvest. How long will you lie there, O sluggard?     When will you arise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber,     a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber,     and want like an armed man.” Laziness causes a person to neglect work and fail to exploit the window of opportunity. Summer is the preparation time for winter, and we dare not wile it away. Failure to plan ahead will result in “poverty” and “want.” Wisely setting goals leads to better results: “Th

How do I know if I am a Christian?

Jesus taught that the condition of a person’s heart will manifest itself in his or her behavior: “No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart” ( Luke 6:43–45 ; cf.  Matthew 7:16 ). So, when considering whether or not you are a Christian, you can consider the kind of fruit that is produced in the life of a Christian: 1.  Complete trust in Christ’s death and resurrection as sufficient payment for the debt we owe God.  A Christian is one who  trusts Christ  exclusively. Doubts come when we fear we must add something to the work of Christ to ensure our salvation.  Ephesians 2:8–9  makes it clear that we are not saved by our works, but by God’s grace alone. No matter how righteous we may appear, none of us come close to e
