DAY 4 OF 5

God Gives Wisdom Freely. 

James‬ ‭1:5‬ ‭KJV‬‬ states, “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.” Before you start a new job, ask God for wisdom. Before you start a new class, ask God for wisdom. If you are having difficulty learning new ideas, or grasping new concepts, ask God for wisdom. God does not lack wisdom. Wisdom is His. Success is His. God wants you to succeed. He wants you to excel. ‭‭

3 John‬ ‭1:2‬ ‭KJV‬‬ states, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” God wants you to excel in spiritual and in natural things. Let God lead you before every exam. Let God lead you as you diligently study and adequately prepare. Ask God to give you wisdom concerning the material you’re learning. 

Success comes from God. Promotion and advancement comes from Him. Deuteronomy 28:1 states, “And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:” God wants you to be successful, but you must submit to Him. As you study His Word — His Way of doing things, He will order your steps and guide your path.

Deuteronomy‬ ‭28:13‬ ‭KJV‬‬ states, “And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:” God wants to make you the head and not the tail, but are you prepared for the promotion? “For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.” Psalms‬ ‭75:6‬ ‭KJV‬‬. Education prepares you, but promotion comes from God. Prepare for the promotion.
