WALKING IN WISDOM

Memorise:
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. .. James 1:5

Read:
Proverbs 3:13-18

Message

Wisdom is the principal thing, and in all our getting, we are encouraged to get understanding. Walking in wisdom means making decisions that are aligned with the word of God. It is the ability to apply the knowledge of God to everyday situations in a way that brings success and honor.

There are two types of wisdom: the wisdom of the world and the wisdom from above. The wisdom of the world is often based on selfishness, competition, and pride. However, the wisdom from above is pure, peaceable, gentle, and full of good fruits. To walk in this kind of wisdom, you must first have the fear of the Lord, which is the beginning of wisdom.

Wisdom helps you to manage your time, your relationships, and your resources effectively. It teaches you when to speak and when to be silent. It helps you to avoid the pitfalls that the enemy has set on your path. A person who walks in wisdom will always be steps ahead of his or her adversaries.

God is the source of all true wisdom. If you lack wisdom in any area of your life, James 1:5 says you should ask God, who gives liberally to all men. He is willing to guide you and show you the right way to go. Don't rely on your own intelligence or the advice of ungodly people. Seek the mind of God through His word.

Beloved, as you navigate through this new year, make wisdom your companion. Let the word of God be the light that guides your feet. When you walk in wisdom, you walk in safety and you enjoy the favor of God and man.

RCCG Hymn

When we walk with the Lord

  1. When we walk with the Lord, In the light of His word,
    What a glory He sheds on our way!
    While we do His good will
    He abides with us still.
    And with all who will trust and obey.

    2. Trust and obey!
    For there's no other way
    To be happy in Jesus,
    But to trust and obey.


  2. Not a shadow can rise.
    Not a cloud in the skies.
    But His smile quickly drives it away;
    Not a doubt nor a fear,
    Not a sigh nor a tear,
    Can abide while we trust and obey.
  3. Not a burden we bear.
    Not a sorrow we share
    But our toil He doth richly repay;
    Not a grief nor a loss,
    Not a frown nor a cross.
    But is blest if we trust and obey
  4. But we never can prove
    The delights of His love,
    Until all on the altar we lay.
    For the favour He shows
    And the joy He bestows
    Are for them who will trust and obey.
  5. Then in fellowship sweet
    We will sit at His feet.
    Or we'll walk by His side in the way.
    What He says we will do,
    Where He sends we will go.
    Never fear, only trust and obey.
