Reason of Use
Hebrews 5:14 “But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” (NKJV)
How do you differentiate between when the Spirit of God is speaking to you and when it is your instinct speaking? In my first book, New Creation Reality, I dedicate an entire chapter to hearing from God. Your instinct can speak to you, and you will think it is one hundred percent God. Read the rest of this entry
The Heart
Proverbs 17:27-28 “A truly wise person uses few words; a person with understanding is even-tempered. Even fools are thought wise when they keep silent; with their mouths shut, they seem intelligent.”
Words are so powerful. Sometimes, we are overly consumed with saying the right things. We should not be worried about saying the right things, just be focused on having a wise heart. If you pay attention to your heart and you become a wise person, it does not matter what you say, they will be wise words. Read the rest of this entry
Wisdom & Words
Proverbs 18:4 “Wise words are like deep waters; wisdom flows from the wise like a bubbling brook.”
At our workplace with our colleagues, some people are quick to jump to conclusions. And they come to us with their preconceived idea of how things are. How we respond determines the course of that conversation and the course of that relationship. And God is saying to us that a gentle answer deflects anger. Read the rest of this entry
The Wisest Thing
Proverbs 4:5-7 “Get wisdom; develop good judgment. Don’t forget my words or turn away from them. Don’t turn your back on wisdom, for she will protect you. Love her, and she will guard you. Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do…”
Proverbs 4:23 “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.” The spring of your life is flowing from your heart. Let the Word of God penetrate deep into your heart so that the streams of your life will be the life of God.If you do not like the springs of your life,
Wisdom Ways
Proverbs 3:21-23 “My child, don’t lose sight of common sense and discernment. Hang on to them, for they will refresh your soul. They are like jewels on a necklace. They keep you safe on your way, and your feet will not stumble.”
Yesterday, we began to look at the channels, the ways we can interact with, engage, and download wisdom. The first way is by Inspiration. The second way is by Instruction. The third way is by Contemplation. The fourth way is by Books. There are things that have been written, therefore, Read the rest of this entry
Remember
Philippians 3:1 “Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.” (KJV)
Over the next few days, we are going to turn our focus to past lessons. Why? Sometimes, as God’s people, we learn so many things. If I ask you what has been the most striking lesson from God’s Word for you this year, does anything come to mind? With God, it is important that we pause and check again. Read the rest of this entry
Fight It!
Luke 17: 9-10 “And does the master thank the servant for doing what he was told to do? Of course not. In the same way, when you obey me you should say, ‘We are unworthy servants who have simply done our duty.’” (emphasis added)
1 Cor. 1:26-29 “Remember, dear brothers and sisters, that few of you were wise in the world’s eyes or powerful or wealthy when God called you. Instead, God chose things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise. And he chose things that are powerless to shame those who are powerful.

His Elect
Isaiah 45:4-5 “For Jacob My servant’s sake, And Israel My elect, I have even called you by your name; I have named you, though you have not known Me. I am the Lord, and there is no other; There is no God besides Me. I will gird you, though you have not known Me” (NKJV)
Romans 9:10-16 “This son was our ancestor Isaac. When he married Rebekah, she gave birth to twins. But before they were born, before they had done anything good or bad, she received a message from God. (This message shows that God chooses people according to his own purposes; Read the rest of this entry
Simply Because…
Deuteronomy 7:7-8 “The Lord did not set his heart on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other nations, for you were the smallest of all nations! Rather, it was simply that the Lord loves you, and he was keeping the oath he had sworn to your ancestors…”
1 Corinthians 4:7 “For what gives you the right to make such a judgment? What do you have that God hasn’t given you? And if everything you have is from God, why boast as though it were not a gift?” How do you stay humble? Is a strange question to me because how can anyone struggle to be humble?

Don’t Assume
Matthew 20:13&15 “He answered one of them, ‘Friend, I haven’t been unfair! Didn’t you agree to work all day for the usual wage? …Is it against the law for me to do what I want with my money? Should you be jealous because I am kind to others?’”
Romans 12:19 “Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say, “I will take revenge; I will pay them back,” says the Lord.” Why do people take revenge? The only reason people take revenge is because they feel entitled. Read the rest of this entry
