Travel Light
2 Peter 1:3 “His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue” (NKJV, emphasis added)
I pray in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, that as you have come into God’s presence today, God will breathe on you Himself, change your heart, correct your course, and empower you.

Wisdom Nuggets
Proverbs 1:7 “Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.”
Proverbs 16:25 “There is a path before each person that seems right, but it ends in death.” Everybody has a path that appears okay, it makes sense, and it is logical. God says it is death that is waiting at the end. Read the rest of this entry

Whose Counsel?
Proverbs 21:30 “There is no wisdom or understanding or counsel against the LORD.” (NKJV)

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.

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
