DAY 3 OF 5

Education Is Critical For The Next Level. 

Identify your mountain(s) and study your “climb”. Education examines paths that have been created by others who have gone ahead of you. Education examines and studies the ways that already exist — God creates and directs new and uncharted paths. God gives you insight as to what has not been done — yet. God’s education supersedes man’s process and platform. The Earth is the Lord’s, let God lead you. Let God give you His revelation. He wants to do a new thing in you and through you. “But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 1 Corinthians‬ ‭2:9‬ ‭KJV.‬‬ 

Revelation is God’s revealed word through man. When you couple God’s revelation with education — innovation is birthed. Through your submission to God, witty ideas are born. “I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.” Proverbs‬ ‭8:12‬ ‭KJV‬‬

When you study the field that you’re called to, you will begin to learn, observe, and internalize the principles, patterns and precepts of that particular field. Education prepares you to lead. Education prepares you to steward your gifts properly. When you are presented with an opportunity to execute what you’ve learned, posture yourself to become a good steward of the knowledge that God has given you. God can present the platform but it’s up to you to execute. You were built for this. 

Joseph went through a training season before he led an economy. Moses went through leadership development training before he led millions. David was anointed as king but he still went through a process. David was educated and trained before he held the position as king. 

You may be called, you may be gifted and anointed for a position, but education and submission prepares you for the role. Education, both formal and informal, is essential to your success. “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.” Proverbs‬ ‭4:7‬ ‭KJV‬‬
