THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM: Daily Devotional

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power.- Ephesians 1:17–19

INSPIRATION

If God tells us that wisdom is of utmost importance, it is our duty to know and act on the "spirit of wisdom." But do you know what a "spirit of wisdom" is?

See the prayer (above) that the Apostle Paul prayed for the church at Ephesus. The spirit of wisdom and revelation resides in the knowledge of Jesus! The more you know Jesus and the more His undeserved grace becomes apparent in your life, the more you will have the spirit of wisdom. . We encourage you to pray this prayer regularly for wisdom. Because as you grow in your knowledge of Jesus, He will ensure your success in every aspect of your life.

Notice that when Paul prayed this prayer for the believers in Ephesus, they were already filled with the Holy Spirit. But Paul continued to pray that God would give them the spirit of wisdom and revelation to give them knowledge of Jesus. It is one thing to have the Holy Spirit indwelling you, and it is another to have the Holy Spirit flowing into you as a spirit of wisdom and revelation.

And as you pray today to be led by the Spirit of Wisdom, be assured that the Holy Spirit will guide you in the divine and matchless wisdom of Jesus. When the Holy Spirit leads you to the wisdom of Jesus, there are no impossible situations, no insoluble problems, no insurmountable crises. The wisdom of Jesus within you will help you overcome all challenges and push you to overcome all challenges!

Never Lacking - Daily Devotional

Bible Verse: Philippians 4:19 (NIV) - "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus." Devotional: As Christians, we are called to live a life of faith, trusting in God's promises to provide for all our needs. The verse from Philippians 4:19 assures us that our God is faithful and will never let us lack anything we truly need. This promise is not limited to just physical needs, but it encompasses our emotional, spiritual, and relational needs as well. Life can be filled with uncertainties, challenges, and seasons of lack. However, the Bible encourages us to hold fast to God's promise of provision, knowing that He is our ultimate source of abundance and blessings. When we face trials or times of scarcity, we can turn to the truth of Philippians 4:19 as a reminder of God's unwavering love and care for us. As we apply this verse in our daily lives, we are called to cultivate a deeper trust in God. Instead of worrying about...

THE ENEMY IS BENEATH YOUR FEET: Daily Devotional

Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.” And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” - Luke 10:17–19 In Luke 10 we see our Lord Jesus sending out the seventy disciples like “the Lambs among wolves” into the kingdom of darkness. In today's Bible, look at the conversation the Seventy had with the Lord Jesus when he returned. Friends, the authority and authority our Lord Jesus gave them is the authority and authority we believers have today! Romans 16:20 declares that the God of peace will crush Satan under our feet! He is a defeated enemy. The Bible is very consistent and always has the devil under his feet (Genesis 3:15; Ephesians 1:22). You are not swayed by enemy attacks. Don't put him on the pedestal as he rules you....

GATHERED UNDER HIS WINGS : Daily Devotional

“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were not willing! See! Your house is left to you desolate.” - Luke 13:34–35 A beautiful picture is hidden in Psalm 91:4. A photo of a mother hen protecting her chicks. The scriptures quoted above record how the Lord Jesus wept over Jerusalem. Later, while mourning Jerusalem, Jesus said: They will not leave a stone in you, because you do not know when you will visit” (Luke 19:43-44). The Greek word for “weep” in verse 41, klayo, means to move emotionally enough to weep and weep. Do you see the merciful mercy of the Lord toward Israel when many tears are shed for Israel? He wanted him to gather Israel under his feathers as a hen gathers her chicks under his wings, but Jehovah could not protect them because they rejected him. I believe that when our...
