You Must Use Wisdom!

Good Morning,

On this day, October 1, this email comes to minister to you. T.G.I.F. How are you doing this morning? Its a wonderful day to be a child of God. Have you ever reacted to an offer before thinking it out clearly? It sounded good when first presented to you. Maybe it was a promotion on your job. The new increase seemed wonderful. You jumped to the opportunity. Now that you have committed yourself to what you agreed upon, you regret it. While the money is good, the hours are tiresome. The extra work is overwhelming. Have you ever carelessly misused money? When the paycheck was first deposited, the amount was large. You thought of many things you could do with or buy with the money. The new dress, shoes, suit, jersey, you always wanted is heavily weighing on your mind. You forget about the budget. When was the last time you prayed before making a decision? When was the ! last time you asked for a little more time to think on the offer? When was the last time you took your desires to the Lord?



This morning, I have been commissioned to come and minister to you. In our lives, we are often faced with daily decisions. Everywhere you go, something or someone needs your guidance before they proceed. Quick reactions can be deadly. What do you do? What do you say? Do you have time to pray? (I believe you always have time to pray). My friend, You Must Use Wisdom! The Bible declares in Proverbs 4:7 - Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. As a child of God, having wisdom is essential. Many decisions you will make can easily be resolved when you respond in a wise manner. Wisdom allows you to determine the difference between what you need and what you want. Without it, many people confuse the two. You Must Use Wisdom! How many decisions have you made without wise counsel? How many mistakes could have been avoided if you used wisdom? The Bible declares in Proverbs 1:7 - The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.



My brother, my sister, what are you faced with today? What decision do you have to make today? Before you respond, as you normally would, ask God to help you make a wise decision. The Bible declares in Proverbs 2:6 - For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. You Must Use Wisdom! Beloved, many people have suffered due to unwise choices or reactions. Many have lost days, weeks, months and years of their life as a result of unwise investments or contributions. In Proverbs 3:13, the Bible declares that happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. You Must Use Wisdom! It is imperative. Wisdom enables you to speak when necessary and hold your tongue when you desire to speak negatively. It allows you to uphold the Word of God when you desire to give someone a "piece of your mind." Wisdom allows you to do your job when co-workers are gossiping and complaining about the job. It allows you to think before you speak. You Must Use Wisdom! Prayer for Today: Father, today I pray for wisdom and understanding. Wisdom to make wise decisions. Understanding to understand your will and assignment for me on today. In Jesus' name ... Amen! Until Monday ...



Scripture Reading for Today: Proverbs 4:5, Proverbs 8:11



May God Bless you at Your point of need!



To God Be The Glory!!
