THE PRESERVATION POWER OF WISDOM
SCRIPTURE: And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him. Wherefore when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he was afraid of him. – 1 Samuel 18:14-15
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: It takes the mentality of God to handle the calamities of life.
We live in a world that is filled with calamities; a world that requires the wisdom of God for survival. If you turn on the television, the radio or look at one of the newspapers, especially the tabloids, you will see all manner of horrible stories. So, we need the wisdom of God for survival. It takes the mentality of God to handle the calamities of life.
Now, what is the preservation power of wisdom?
1. Wisdom invites the presence of God and invokes terror on the enemy.
From our anchor Scripture, we see that David behaved himself wisely, and because of that, God was with him. So, wisdom, especially Divine wisdom invokes the presence of God. Also, from our anchor Scripture, we see that Saul became afraid of David because he behaved himself very wisely. So, there is a wisdom way to behave that will make witches and wizards to be afraid of you.
The enemy fears wise people and fights foolish people. When you are wise in the spirit, you are a terror to the devil.
2. Wisdom brings deliverance while foolishness brings destruction (Proverbs 28:26).
There are so many people today whose lives have been destroyed in several ways, not because of the powerfulness of the devil, but because of the powerfulness of their foolishness.
I see the wisdom of God come upon you today; you are not killable by any devil. You shall fulfil your days, in Jesus’ Name.
Remember this: It takes the mentality of God to handle the calamities of life.
ASSIGNMENT (S):
1. Make demands on the wisdom of God upon your life consistently.
2. Avoid the way of foolishness; get a copy of “21 Foolish Things People Do” by Dr Paul Enenche.
