DEVOTION ~ WISDOM IS A DEFENCE

-

Theme: Wisdom is a Defence 
Text: Ecclesiastes 7:11-12
11 Wisdom is good with an inheritance, and profitable to those who see the sun. 12 For wisdom is a defence as money is a defence, but the excellence of knowledge is that wisdom gives life to those who have it.



Making good decisions in life requires wisdom. A lack of it can lead to dire consequences. So long as we have life, we must desire and embrace wisdom, for it is a weapon of defence just as money is a defence. Acquiring an inheritance isn't enough; we need to seek wisdom on how to use it. Careless spending will ruin us and frustrate our lives. However, if we are led by the Spirit of God in Christ Jesus, we receive divine wisdom to make useful and meaningful decisions in life. The best firm of inheritance is in Christ, and having Him leads to a desirable life of peace within.  


Let us Pray: Almighty God, I ask wisdom from You today. Please, bless me with the riches of Your glory and grant me wisdom to make good use of the blessings. This I ask in the Name of Jesus Christ. AMEN!

Apollos means "one who destroys or a destroyer". He was a New Testament figure who steadily grew to become a servant of Jesus through ministry. He was a staunch Jew.  Some Characteristics of Apollos: √ Apollos was endowed with great knowledge and was very outspoken. In his line of ministry, he exhibited understanding of the old canon and delivered its message boldly.  √ Despite Apollos's eloquence and knowledge, he was only vexed in the baptism of John without the knowledge that the prophecy about the Messiah had already been fulfilled. John’s baptism was the baptism unto repentance: An act of confession and turning from sin which anticipated the coming of the Messiah. Let us be informed that Christ's second return is for judgment.  √ Apollos was instructed in the way of Christ by Priscilla and Aquila, two faithful couples in Christ. After one of his public teachings, he was called aside by the couple who explained the scripture to him. His submissiveness to adhere to...

Do you feel you're forgotten, rejected or insecure? Dear beloved in the Lord, you're not forgotten, for God has engraved your name in His palms. Isaiah 49:16 See, "I have engraved you on the Palms of My Hands: Your walls are ever before Me". If God has engraved your name in His palms, it means He always sees or watches over you. Rise up and shake the fear and doubts off.  Declare, "I am not forgotten or alone. The LORD has engraved me in His Palms. Therefore, His eyes are fixed on me, and He protects me from the wicked. I decree all that I have is secured in the Name of Jesus Christ. AMEN!

What inhibits you determines what comes out of you. The two elements are light and darkness. The light within produces good, whereas darkness is evil. It is recorded in  Ephesians 5:8-9 For once you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light! For this light within you produces only what is good, right, and true.  Declare, "In the Name of Jesus Christ, I no longer walk in darkness but rather in light. Therefore, every product of darkness within and around me is extinct. I decree that my family and I live in light, and we enjoy what the light produces in fullness. Our deeds are good, right, and true. AMEN!"
