God’s Wisdom Can Be Yours

"When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom" - Proverbs 11:12 (KJV)

It's very clear from the above scripture, that God's Wisdom--the virtue that distinguishes men and women in the race of life--abides only with the LOWLY in heart. In other words, to flow in divine Wisdom, you must maintain a low profile. You must be small in your own eyes; you must lose all sense of 'self-esteem' and embrace 'God-esteem'. 

You must be low enough for God to be able to reach you. Remember He's God Most-High. And just as water flows from higher ground to lower ground, all graces in God flow from higher ground to a lower ground. Therefore, as a receiver of God's grace, you must be a 'most low' person, before any grace of the Most-High God can flow to you. That's why the Word says, "...God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble" (James 4:6, KJV).

Reading this brief exhortation right now, I believe you have been chosen (hand-picked) by God Most High to be a beneficiary of His unusual grace (in this case, His Wisdom). And in case you do not yet have a relationship with God (you do not know Him as your Father), then you can do so now, by accepting His Son, Jesus into your Life. Just say this simple prayer.

 LETS PRAY:

I believe that Jesus died for my sins and I confess Him as Lord and Saviour.  Thank you Lord. Amen. 

Congratulations! if you said that prayer, the Word of God says you are now a new creature and old things are passed away. All things are become new (2 Corinthians 5:17). In other-words, God will never call your past life (sins/faults) to remembrance. They are totally forgiven and forgotten. Check this:

 

I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. (Isaiah 43:25)

 

For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more (Hebrews 8:12 ) 

 

You are also encouraged to join a Bible Believing Church near you, in case you're not in one already, where you can grow in the Lord (1st Peter 2:2 and 2nd Samuel 7:10) . And keep following on our social media platforms (Facebook:@josephmasiam, YouTube@josephmasiam).

 

Remain ever blessed.

Jesus is Lord!
