THE MANIFOLD WISDOM OF GOD Part 2 (transcript)


Text: Ephesians 3:10,11
Last week we began a message that this is the second part of, THE MANIFOLD WISDOM OF GOD.
We discovered that wisdom is that one quality and gift that applies to every area of our life and existence.
We discovered that wisdom is a gift of God
We saw from scripture that we need wisdom to fulfil our destinies and maximise our potential.
We were able to see that wisdom is necessary to live prosperous and dignified lives.
We observed from God's Word that God's wisdom answers to purity, righteousness and holiness for God lays up up sound wisdom for the righteous. Proverbs 2:7

We explored the benefits of wisdom:
1) Distinction- Daniel 6:3, Daniel 1:17, Genesis 41:38,39
2) Direction- Ecclesiastes 10:10
3) Happiness- Proverbs 3:18
4) Long life- Proverbs 3:16
5) Safety- Proverbs 3:23
6) Glory- Proverbs 3:35
7) Rest- Proverbs 3:24
8) Promotion- Proverbs 8:15,16 & Proverbs 4:8,9
9) Increases your wealth- Proverbs 8:18,21 & Proverbs 14:24
10) Wisdom brings favor and recognition- Proverbs 4:8 & Proverbs 8:34,35
11) Peace- Proverbs 3:16,17

There are different kinds of wisdom- the two major kinds of wisdom there is is seen in James 3:13-18
1) Wisdom from Above
2) Wisdom that's of the earth- is not spiritual and is demonic.This wisdom is of the flesh and is not inspired of God

Wisdom is revealed in two major ways-
1)By our actions/deeds (James 3:13)
2)By your Words (Luke 21:15)
The godly, heavenly, spiritual wisdom of God is superior to the earthly, fleshly, demonic wisdom of this world. Genesis 41:1-40
In the same manner the rod of Moses swallowed up the rod of the magicians of Pharaoh, the wisdom of God will always swallow up the wisdom of Satan. Exodus 7:12
The strategies of God, the methods of God, the plan of God, the intentions of God and the revelations of God are more beneficial in the long run to what Satan or the flesh has to offer us.
Wisdom pleases God, wisdom is part of God's blessing.
You can ask God for wisdom and receive it. James 1:5
Jesus died to get wisdom to you. Revelation 5:12
You are entitled to Godly wisdom wisdom as a son of God. Matthew 7:9-11
We are the righteousness of God in Christ- 2 Corinthians 5:21, Psalm 5:12

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
