Get Wisdom

Welcome to Sunday Special Edition. Wisdom is said to be the principal thing, that is the most important thing. Furthermore, wisdom is one of the things we are to seek as Christians. Therefore, today I will be sharing on Ten steps to gain Godly Wisdom.

#1. Fear God (Psalm 111 vs.10). The fear of God is to be in reverential awe of God. Reverencing Him in all that you do is a platform to access Godly Wisdom

#2. Please God. Ecclesiastic 2 vs.26. When you please God by the way you order your life and the things you do, wisdom will be released unto you.

#3. Hear God. Proverbs 2 vs.16. You don't say God doesn't speak to you when your bible is closed. God speaks and He speaks all the time. Just like a transmitting station and a radio, you must tune your spirit to pick God's voice.

#4. Look to God. Proverbs 3 vs. 13. When you are confused or in need, the first person to turn to is not man but God. Those that look to God are more enlightened than those that look to men. 

#5. Choose God's Way. Proverbs 8 vs. 10-11. His ways are revealed in His word. The more you walk in the Word, the wiser you become. 

#6. Be Humble before God. Proverbs 11 vs.2. God is not ready to bestow wisdom on the proud. But on the humble; grace and wisdom are released. 

#7. Take God's Advice. Proverbs 13: 10. God's advice often comes from the mouth of people He has placed over you or around you. Following godly counsel or advice brings not just wisdom but safety too

#8. Receive God's Correction. Proverbs 29:15. The way God corrects us is via His word. His Word is the Rod of His correction. So anytime you are reproved by the Word, take it joyfully as it is working in you godly wisdom.

#9. Pray to God. Ephesians 1 vs.17. We can ask God for Wisdom and He will give it to us, His word says 'All that asketh receiveth...' Don't stop asking for it, it can be never be too much.

#10. Know the Son of God. 1 Corinthians 1:30. Christ is Our wisdom and He dwells in us that knows Him. So if you don't know Him personally you have to, so as to gain access to Godly Wisdom.

House of Leaders or Warlords

As I ruminate on the ugly incidences that bewildered Benue House of assembly and the House of Representatives this outgoing week where law makers engaged in a free for all, I nodded my head in utmost dismay of what has become of the people we chose to lead us and make laws for us. This is not the first time we will be seeing something of such but every time it occurs it leaves a negative impression of incompetence, immaturity, clueless and law-less law makers on the heart of Nigerians and people all over the world watching.  I'm not a political analyst neither do I want to become one but i'm an advocate of good 'leaders-in-a-ship' and I believe that what the nation deserves at this time is a way forward from where we are not engaging in blow throwing and cloth tearing. Leadership is not by occupying position, that is, you are not a leader by being in an office or by holding a post. Leadership is all about influence. Its all about the ability to transform a vi...

God's Got You

I was on a trip recently and we drove into a difficult terrain. The driver did well by maneuvering the terrain well and got us safely out of it. However, during this drifting, I doubted his professionalism to get us out safely, in fact I panicked, I gave my opinions and advise based on my experience of driving. Unfortunately, my driver will do the opposite, stating reasons why my counsel will not work and truthfully, his judgement always proves to be right and at the end he drove us safely to our destination. This experience got me to think of how many times we have given God our thoughts and advice on what he should do or should have done. We tell him the direction we feel is right for us to go and at times drag the steering with Him. God is to be trusted. The moment you make him the driver of your life, you can trust him to take you safely to a glorious destination. The terrain may be difficult, He might drive you through surprising and difficult places, just hold on and trust him. H...

Jehovah Huperekperissou

R ecently I was believing God for financial provisions which were very huge. Having understood the fundamentals of faith, I gathered scriptures upon which my faith can stand.  In the process of time, I stumbled upon a particular scripture that seems to be new to me in the scriptures, in fact, I thought my Bible was updated. It is Ephesians 3:20 Now unto him, that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, The fire phrase is " exceeding abundantly " and in the Greek language means Huperekperissou .  Huperekperissou is a combination of three words actually;  Huper meaning above ek meaning an idea of exhaustlessness, and  Perrisos which means exceeding some number or measure, over and above, more than necessary Together Huperekperissou means  superabundantly, surpassingly, beyond measure, exceedingly, quite beyond all measure, overwhelming, over and above, more ...
