This is what you really need! A must read!

The wisdom of God is multifaceted and priceless. If you can obtain God’s wisdom, you would have great success in your life and ministry. When you get a chance, read Proverbs 8 and you’ll see what I mean. Proverbs 8:14 (NLT) says: “Common sense and success belong to me (wisdom). Insight and strength are mine.” As a King, David knew the importance of wisdom in his daily decisions. He depended on God to give him the daily wisdom he needed in order to lead righteously. He also knew that wisdom was connected to his relationship with God. He said this in Psalms 111:10: “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all those who do His commandments. His praise endures forever”. In today’s world, we need wisdom more than ever before. There are many philosophies and opinions out there. If you do not have the wisdom of God flowing in you, you will get lost in the quagmire of thoughts and demands. The Lord Jesus taught that if we seek, we shall find (Matthew 7:7). Refuse to be like those who are convinced that they know it all and don’t need God’s wisdom. Humble yourself before God today and ask Him for wisdom. That my friend, is the foundation for success, health, safety, peace and salvation.

Proverbs 8:14 (NLT) “Common sense and success belong to me. Insight and strength are mine.”

Instead of worrying, do this!

The Apostle Paul addressed a very important issue in our day, and that is worry. He joined the Lord Jesus in teaching us that worrying is not only useless, it is dangerous. In Phillipians 4:6, the Apostle shares this: “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.” He says: Don’t worry! But he doesn’t stop there. He adds : “Don’t worry about anything.” That means that worry is useless in any arena. We are simply not to come into agreement with worry in any scenario. Worry and fear go hand in hand. When we worry, we are telling our brains and bodies that a crisis is at hand, and your body will respond by going on the defense. That is when the palpitations begin, the chemicals in your body take you into overdrive, and stress begins to break you down physically, emotionally and spiritually. Your mind begins to conjure up many bad scenarios, and you are taken out of your place of peace and authority. The next time you are tempted to get into a place of worry, instead go to prayer, and remember that God has told us to “not worry.” While you are in prayer, remember that God is with you, and He works all things for good. It doesn’t matter what you see at the moment, know that God will give you peace and strategies during these uncertain moments. Also, thank God for the good things and good experiences you have already been through. Remember that in the same way that God has delivered and helped you in the past, He will do it again. The greater one resides within you!

Phillipians 4:6 (NLT) “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.”
