It's another great day to read, learn, and be inspired by God's word. Because I learned that both money and wisdom are profitable for humans, but one of them has in its life, and that is Mr wisdom. Login into the scripture where you'll find the book of Ecclesiastes 7:11-12; in there, you're going to have a better and clearer explanation.
From the review of a question asked a few days ago by my friend, pastor Sammy, it was on a beautiful evening when Sammy approached me to ask, what would be the one secret that I can possibly think is responsible for what God is doing in my dear life? Was Mr. Sammy's question to me?
I could remember vividly telling Mr That considering all the suggestions he'll wanna give or ever think of, might be incorrect. I've studied God's word by His grace, prayed severally, and fasted uncountably, and I'm convinced that none of these activities and engagements are the real reason behind the hands ✋ of God upon myself. But I'm very sure about one particular reason behind it all.
And it's that I never for once forget where God brought me from. And I remember. Where you were brought from can be likened to an anchor, and One of the reasons why nobody should forget where God took you from is that the anchor has the tendency of bringing to your presence the memory of yesterday; you remember how He picked you.
Be like Daniel; don't allow the beauty of a palace to make you forget that you were once in the wilderness. Remember where you were before now that you own an estate; submission is inevitable if you don't forget your days of little beginning.
Remember His goodness, let it not be that when you're building houses, always go back to remember, once upon a time, you had no voice, you had no comeliness, when there was no grace speaking upon your life, the nations didn't even know about your existence, but an Ancient King was sitting on the throne, the lifter of men.
Now that He has granted you excess to taste His hand ✋, it will be foolishness to forget Him in the midst of mundane opportunities. Remember the one who met you when nobody knew anything about you. Anybody who wasn't there doesn't deserve to be first and will not be last but will only be found somewhere in between the equation.
Let's not be ashamed of JESUS now that we're wealthy; he shouldn't look like an interruption to our growth. Now that you're a father and mother of six, never forget that once in a while, you were in fear, asking if a man would ever come to pick you from your lowly estate.
How about how you never imagined from the family you came from that you may not be able to go to school and yet God picked you up, and you're now established. Never forget God's goodness, mercy, and grace. Just as the psalmist says, bless the Lord, oh my soul and all that is within me. Bless His name. He says to bless the Lord, oh my soul, and forget not His benefits.
Let's end by saying that all things are lawful, but not all things are Expedient. That your life, it's His yes that'll become the marching order, and His no becomes your eternal restraint. Even Amid plenty, if He says No, His desire becomes your command. Remember your creator mostly now that you're in your youthful days.
He knows your end from the beginning. He's the source of all resources. All that you own today, He gave freely out of trust. Keep making Him proud with your wealth by extending helping hands to the vulnerable and remaining eternally grateful.
