Are you using the wisdom that God has given you? Or are you self- reasoning?

Wisdom is such a wonderful gift from God. Wisdom is seeing things as God sees them.

Solomon gave us some great teachings, and spoke with great wisdom.  He gave us  Proverbs and Ecclesiastes, and possibly Song of Solomon.

Proverbs 2:6
For the Lord gives wisdom;  From His mouth came knowledge and understanding.

After all the wisdom that Solomon had, He didn't use what He wrote to us about in our bible.
He went into failure, and followed his wives into idolatry. He fell into sin, and dishonored His God who so graciously bless him with the gift of wisdom.

Then when Jesus comes on the scene, with greater wisdom than Solomon, He was disputed and not listened to my the leaders of His day.

Matthew 12:42 (Jesus speaking because the scribes and Pharisees wanted a sign)
"The queen of the south will rise up in judgment with this generation and condemn it, for she came from the far ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a greater than Solomon is here.

Beloved, the wisdom that God gives to us is all we need to succeed.

Wisdom is the insight into the true nature of things, the ability to discern modes of action, with the view to their results. (Seeing things as God sees them)

If we will use the wisdom from the word of God, our lives would be much better.  We wouldn't have to struggle with, "I wonder if ".

God has given us enough wisdom in his word to provide us with the full understanding for our Christian life.

Proverbs 1:2-5
To know wisdom and instruction, to perceive the words of understanding, to receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, judgment, and equity; to give prudence to the simple, To the young man knowledge and discretion- 
A wise man will hear and increase learning.  A man of understanding will attain wise counsel,

Solomon gave us so much from the mouth of the Lord, yet he himself failed miserably in follow his own words. It took Israel around 300 years to recover from Solomon's sins. They followed their king into sin.

Proverbs 2: 1
My son, if you receive my words, and treasure my commands within you, So that you incline your ear to wisdom, apply your heart to understanding.

Beloved, use the wisdom that the Lord has provided for you through the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is there to be your coach, teacher and friend.  Listen to Him, He will always magnify Jesus.
He will help you see things in their true nature, and provide the ability to discern.

God bless your day
Jesus loves you

Love in Jesus
Joy

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

SCIENCE AND THE BIBLE.

Science proves that God's word has it right for sustaining our life. Science says, that we need   four basic elements to sustain life and survive. We need air, water, food, and light. We have it all in Jesus, if we have received Him as our Lord. Science is right. It has proven God's word is true. Acts 17:25 (Paul was speaking about the Unknown God to the men in Athens) Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, Since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. We need air in order to breathe. When we receive Jesus we have His breath, breathing through our lungs. When we breathe, we speak the name of God. Just speaking His name, we inhale YAH and exhale WEH.   YHWH means breath of life. Our Jewish brothers and sisters know the name of God means breath of God. This is an interesting fact that we believers need to know. We also need light. John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, "I am the light of the world; He who follows Me shall not walk...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...
