Scriptural UNDERSTANDING For Wisdom
Scriptural UNDERSTANDING For Wisdom: Get The UNDERSTANDING In ALL Your KNOWING!
I have always said, and will always say: “Until You UNDERSTAND What You Claim To KNOW Or To Have KNOWN In Any Matter Of Life And Godliness, You Are Not Better Than The IGNORANT”
Having an idea
is good, UNDERSTANDING your idea is another ball game. I have seen the assumed
rich fall from the penthouse glory to be a beggar and have seen the one time
poverty stricken rise to grace from grass. All because the assume rich just
landed into wealth by a mere knowledge and zeal, without understanding what’s
the take on and know-how to sustain the position; while the once poverty
stricken took to knowledge know-how along with understanding of the journey,
arrives there, lives to sustain it, in spite of all changes in weather
conditions to the set matter.
Knowing your
spouse is good, but if you don’t understand each other, there’s going to be a
bomb explosion one day.
Being educated
in a career or trade is good, but not understanding your career or trade will
cause a problem to you and others probably one day.’
Being a Gospel
Minister is a gracious privilege. But not understanding the etiquette of being
a Shepherd of looking well over God’s heritage will make you a hypocrite and
wolf in sheep clothing.
Being a leader
in private, non-governmental or government or other public position of making
decision is good, but if you lack the understanding for leadership and
governance, you will destroy the people’s invested TIME, EFFORTS, MATERIAL
& FINANCE under your watch.
More so, a lack
of understanding will cause you to always REACT, make excuses and blame others
for your inadequacy; It will cause you not to take RESPONSIBILITY and
ACCOUNTABILITY for your actions; and a lack of PURPOSEFUL UNDERSTANDING to
achieving meaningful RESULTS.
UNDERSTANDING the
PURPOSE of a thing, is the needed enabling grace in order to achieve
meaningfully and be fulfilled in any driven cause. A lack of ALL NEEDED
understanding makes people live a life without meaningful PURPOSE and
FULFILMENT for themselves and others.
WISDOM –
KNOWLEDGE + UNDERSTANDING – It’s based on PRINCIPLE, which is GOOD and
PROFITABLE and a DEFENCE, GIVING one’s LIFE an ESSENCE!
“Wisdom is GOOD with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun. 12 For wisdom is a DEFENCE, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom GIVETH life to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:11-12.
“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get WISDOM: and with ALL thy getting GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.
