THE MANIFOLD WISDOM OF GOD!


Text: Proverbs 4:7

In today's world there are many things that can take priority for an individual- our health, our careers, our finances, our marriages, our circumstances, to name a few.
Wisdom is that one quality and gift that applies to every area of our existence. That's why God says we should go for wisdom.
When God's wisdom touches your health, you remain healthy. When God's wisdom comes into a marriage solutions appear in that marriage and conflicts reduce, careers that are nose diving begin to rise when God's wisdom flows into it, and circumstances and finances improve when wisdom comes unto the scene.
We need wisdom to fulfil our destinies and maximise our potential. We need wisdom to live dignified and prosperous lives.
Wisdom affects every area of our living and makes it better.

God knows there are many sides and compartments to lives, that's why the wisdom He has provided to His children the saints of God is manifold. Ephesians 3:10-11
The reason God's wisdom is manifold is that it can be applied to every area of our lives that matter.
Manifold according to Ephesians 3:10 means many sided.

Attributes of godly wisdom:
1)It is many sided or manifold- Ephesians 3:10
2)It is found in the depths- 1 Corinthians 2:7
3)It is Jesus- Jesus is our wisdom, wisdom is found in Jesus. 1 Corinthians 1:30
4)It is mysterious- 1 Corinthians 2:7
5)It is hidden-  because God's wisdom is hidden you have to search for it or ask for it. James 1:5, Proverbs 25:2
6)It is not found in our physical dimension- it's not found in the land of human beings, only in God. That's why it is mysterious. Job 28:7-28
Wisdom has it's own path, it is not always logical.
7)It can appear foolish. 1 Corinthians 1:27-30
8)It is pure, peaceful and fruitful. James 3:17

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...
