RCCG IOPEN HEAVENS AND FDTEB MSG SEPT 23RD 2014
MEMORISE
Because
the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger
than men.
1 Corinthians 1:25
Read
Luke 14:28-32
28 For which
of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the
cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?
29 Lest
haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all
that behold it begin to mock him,
30 Saying,
This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
31 Or what
king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and
consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against
him with twenty thousand?
32 Or else,
while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth
conditions of peace.
Message
The Bible in Proverbs 4:7 tells us that wisdom is very important:
”Wisdom
is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get
understanding.”
Wisdom is described as the principal thing. In
other words, irrespective of what you want to get from God, make sure you get
wisdom first. If you are wise, whatever God gives to you will not lead to your
destruction. There are three types of wisdom: the wisdom of Satan, the wisdom
of man and the wisdom of God. Satanic wisdom is corrupted wisdom. Human wisdom
is at times called common sense, whereas the wisdom of God is pure and
excellent. It is the wisdom of Satan that propels a person to pull down a
fellow human being, in order to get favour. This Satanic wisdom motivates
people to look for help from secret societies. Such wisdom eventually destroys
the seeker. It is the wisd
om of Satan that gives riches through devilish means. All these are contrary to the wisdom of God. It is the wisdom of man that produces business lies. It tells you to use ungodly means in achieving your goals. Common sense will not work with God because it will often be contrary to His will. Any knowledge that tells you that you know more than God is dangerous. You cannot use common sense to interpret your Christian walk or the things that God will want to do in your life. That a virgin would conceive does not have a place in modern science. Sometimes, the wisdom of God will tell you to flee when common sense tells you to stay and defend yourself. There are many people who have played ‘James Bond’ with their lives and unfortunately, did not live to tell the story. For others who survived, it is a sad experience.

“But
the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy
to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without
hypocrisy.”
James 3:17
The wisdom of God is holy wisdom. It is neither the
wisdom of hypocrisy nor that which you use for character assassination. The
wisdom of God shows you how to make Heaven. The wisdom of God makes you
understand that all the commandments of God are for your own benefit. It makes
you think about Heaven as you relate with people everyday, thereby drawing you
closer to God. This kind of wisdom is not limited to spiritual matters alone;
rather, it permeates every aspect of our lives. We can obtain divine wisdom for
our daily trade, for leadership and for everyday living.
Key
Point
Those who are directed by God will never go astray.
