THE SECRET TO WISDOM

So many of has sort for wisdom,knowledge and understanding.We have traveled far and near,we have read all book we have ever come across.We have relied on the things we learn from school.We go through secondary/high school,after that we proceeded to university for bachelors degree and because of the quest for extra knowledge we acquire masters,PhD etc.That means the quest to acquire knowledge never really ends,it continuous till one dies.Every wants to be enlightened,its now a competition in the society ,everyone wants more knowledge and wisdom than his neighbor and there is nothing wrong with that.Even in the bible Paul sought for knowledge and he became a lawyer.Accts 22;3 Then Paul said, "I am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, and I was brought up and educated here in Jerusalem under Gamaliel. As his student, I was carefully trained in our Jewish laws and customs. I became very zealous to honor God in everything I did, just like all of you today.

The bible encouraged people to acquire skills,its also the same things as knowledge.Exo 31;2,3,4:  …2"See, I have called by name Bezalel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. 3"I have filled him with the Spirit of God in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all kinds of craftsmanship, 4to make artistic designs for work in gold, in silver, and in bronze,…

But you know there is a slight difference and similarities between knowledge,understanding and wisdom but thats not our focus.Now what is knowledge according to the bible .

Proverbs 18:15English Standard Version (ESV)

15 An intelligent heart acquires knowledge,
    and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.The bible encourage every to acquire wisdom,knowledge and understanding and there is a penalty if we choose the part to foolishness .

If we want we can go to the ends of the world in quest to answer our unending questions,or to satisfy our curiosity and make life easy for our selves but the truth is that GOD IS ALL KNOWING  and only in him you cant get your answers.

Proverbs 2:10 ESV / 

For wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;

Proverbs 1:7 ESV 

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Hosea 4:6-7 ESv

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you have rejected knowledge, I reject you from being a priest to me. And since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children. The more they increased, the more they sinned against me; I will change their glory into shame.

Proverbs 24:5 ESV 

A wise man is full of strength, and a man of knowledge enhances his might,

Proverbs 8:10 ESV /

Take my instruction instead of silver, and knowledge rather than choice gold,

Proverbs 15:14 ESV The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.

There is a simple logic and secret to having knowledge ,wisdom and understanding.This the secret:THE FEAR OF THE LORD IS THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM that means we do not fear and follow the lord and we still claim to wise,we are just deceiving ourselves.People often think they know what is right for them but JESUS formed you from your mothers womb and he knew you and has kept you all this while and you what the world says and reject him.There are so many misery and people are wallowing in ignorance and are being kept in darkness because of lack of knowledge of JESUS CHRIST.All we have to do is ask.James 1:5

 to do is ask that is all.in james 1:5    

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.

Because without the wisdom there is no way we can please JESUS.1kings3:9 says Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?.Wisdom is knowing JESUS,wisdom is believing in him,wisdom is following him.There is no wisdom without Christ.He rose from the Dead to declare to us that we can now access his unlimited power.

........................CHOOSE JESUS,AND HAVE ANSWERS TO ALL YOUR QUESTIONS

I OWE THE WORLD EVERYTHING

     IT'S ALL MY FAULT, IF I DON'T SUCCEED

LIFE has given everyone the same time, that's 24hrs in a day.7days in a week,12 months in a year. We all have equal time. We all have equal opportunities and chances. Some say some people are less privileged but that ain't true, the problem is the ability to discern which is opportunity.
WE ARE ALL BORN RICH!!. Nobody is born with more value or worth or greater importance than the other. I know it sounds crazy that I said we are all born rich. Well if you are trying to comprehend that, just know that I am saying We are born rich through our minds. It doesn't matter if it's a Golden spoon or silver spoon or even a rubber or wooden spoon you are born with.,what matters is are you renewed in your thinking?. That way you can said to be rich in the mind.
I know some would say of need is it to be rich in the mind and poor physically,a sound mind that impacts and touch many lives is better than a rich man that has nothing to offer(that by the way).
The whole world is waiting on us to succeed,our nation is waiting on us to make it,our immediate community is waiting on us to make it,our family depends on our success.And the most important thing is that we owe them all.I do not owe my family alone,the whole world deserve to be happy through me and if i fail them i should be blame and its all my fault.The world owes you nothing but rather you owe the world everything...

So what step are we taking to ensure that we create a legacy and our history is written the heart of generations to come.Instead of waiting to see what the world can do for you,get up and look for a way to make a difference.The world needs people like me and you,that thinks not only for there selves and families but for the world at large.What other purpose where we created if not to help humanity in any possible way we can.
I can not go on crying and grumbling about the state i am now,Note:I CAN NOT GO ON BEEN SCARED WHILE I KNOW PEOPLE ARE IN NEED OF ME OUT THERE#,how long would i complain,#nobody wants to hear my complains,all they wanna know is i succeed.#Nobody cares how long you have come,they care your present state.#People that are worse than i am,have made history in a positive way,people that are even handicapped have had breakthroughs.There have been people with no sight and i sit down here and complain.People that are in prison have made it while in chains and all i do is sit down and give up.I can go on and on and on ,people have been in worse situations in life than we will ever be and still write there name in the rock of history
WHAT WOULD PEOPLE REMEMBER YOU FOR? Ask yourself this question and then you will know you owe the world,Please be honest to yourself do you really you were created just for yourself alone?. No you are not,your purpose is the make the closest person to happy and then reach out to rest.Its now or never,the journey of a thousand mile starts with a step forward .Start the journey to a fulfilled life today.Everyone is waiting on you

TIMES AND CHANCES

There is an adage that says Time is money.I don't think it's only used by Africans, pretty much everyone uses it to address someone or when we are been delayed.We use it in our daily conversations. It's has become part of us that we have forgotten the importance and meaning and value of Time. Money and Time are two different things, with different features as well.
TIME IS THE MOST PRECIOUS THING IN THE WORLD, it's value cannot be over emphasized, it's value  cannot be concluded, it's not created by men but by nature, which is God. How come Time is the most valuable thing?.Lets first define time according to dictionary.Time is a component quantity of various measurements used to sequence events, to compare the duration of events or the intervals between them, and to quantify rates of change of quantities in material reality or in the conscious experience.So many professors and religious leaders,scholars etc have tried to define it but its concept and existence still remains a mystery to everyone.
I am not trying to argue about what others say about time.I do not want to know what the philosophers say about time and even the religious scholars but all i hold on to is the bible version of time,there you GOD definition of time and so:A Time for Everything

3 For everything there is a season, and la time for every matter under heaven:

2  a time to be born, and a time to mdie;

a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;

3  a time to kill, and a time to heal;

a time to break down, and a time to build up;

4  a time to nweep, and a time to laugh;

a time to mourn, and a time to odance;

5  a time to pcast away stones, and a time to qgather stones together;

a time to embrace, and a time to rrefrain from embracing;

6  a time to seek, and a time to slose;

a time to keep, and a time to tcast away;

7  a time to utear, and a time to sew;

a time to vkeep silence, and a time to speak;

8  a time to love, and a time to whate;

a time for war, and a time for peace.

The God-Given Task

9 What xgain has the worker from his toil? 10 I have seen ythe business that zGod has given to the children of man to be busy with. 11 He has amade everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man’s heart, yet so that he cannot bfind out what God has done from the beginning to the end. 12 I perceived that there iscnothing better for them than to be joyful and to ddo good as long as they live; 13 also ethat everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil—this is fGod’s gift to man.

14 I perceived that whatever God does endures forever; gnothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it. God has done it, so that people fear before him. 15 That which is, halready has been; that which is to be, already has been; and God iseeks what has been driven away.

TIME CANNOT BE RECOVERED WHEN IT HAS BEEN LOST.My brothers and sisters lets utilize the time GOD has apportioned to us all.Time does not wait for anybody.When i was in school my chemistry teacher always told us that yesterday is gone and it can never come back again.He said as yesterday was 2nd of June 2016 and it has passed and that never in this world again will we ever see 2nd of June 2016.WE ONLY HAVE CONTROL OVER TODAY.So how we go about our normal business and the pace in which do the things we do should be influenced by time.And mostly the world has change drastically,it is deteriorating by second and our only refuge is in GOD.Time worth more than money,the more we dedicate our life into worldly and material things,and forgetting the heavenly things,then we are headed the wrong way.Most of us has said to our self,that we will have more time for GOD when we are comfortable enough but lets remember TIME IS AN ENEMY,except you chase it and maximize it ,it will outrun us.GOD is calling us into his marvelous light why not heed to this call to freedom.All the toiling will amount to nothing some day.The Vanity of Toil

18 I hated yall my toil in which I toil under the sun, seeing that I must zleave it to the man who will come after me, 19 and who knows whether he will be wise or a fool? Yet he will be master of all for which I toiled and used my wisdom under the sun. This also is vanity. 20 So I aturned about and gave my heart up to despair bover all the toil of my labors under the sun, 21 because sometimes a person who has toiled with wisdom and knowledge and skill must leave everything to be enjoyed by someone who did not toil for it. This also is vanity and a great evil. 22 What has a man from call the toil and striving of heart with which he toils beneath the sun? 23 For dall his days are full of sorrow, and his ework is a vexation. Even in the night his heart does not rest. This also is vanity.ecl 2;18.

Now i leave you with my favorite bible verse. I have observed something else under the sun. The fastest runner doesn't always win the race, and the strongest warrior doesn't always win the battle. The wise sometimes go hungry, and the skillful are not necessarily wealthy. And those who are educated don't always lead successful lives. It is all decided by chance, by being in the right place at the right time.ecc 9;11.
