So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom
Reply
4 days of Evangelism Training in Southern California provided by LivingWaters Ministry. Obeying the great commission of Jesus Christ. "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to everyone" Mark 16:15 (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. —Psalm 90:12
We live in a society that’s overrun with warning labels. From disclaimers on pills, to “use-by” dates on soup cans, to danger signs on chain saws—warning labels draw our attention to impending hazards. Recently I received a box with a precious gift inside. The sender had attached a big red sticker to the package that said, fragile: handle with care. When I think about life and its fragility, I wonder if we shouldn’t all wear one of those red stickers.
It’s not a good idea to cruise through life thinking that we are invincible and that everything is going to be just fine—only to discover that we are far more fragile than we thought. It takes only a call from the doctor telling us that we have a life-threatening disease, or the swerve of a careless driver in front of us to remind us that life is extremely uncertain. There are no guarantees! None of us can be certain of another breath. So the psalmist has an important piece of advice . . . a warning label of sorts: “Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom” (Ps. 90:12).
Let’s choose to live as though this were our last moment on earth by loving more deeply, forgiving more readily, giving more generously, and speaking more kindly.
That’s how to handle life with care. —Joe Stowell
To run the race of life in Christ,
This must become your daily goal:
Confess your sins, trust God for strength,
Use discipline and self-control. —Sper
Yesterday is gone; tomorrow is uncertain; today is here. Use it wisely.
May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

God has given Me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him who is weary

God has given Me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him who is weary
READ: Isaiah 50:4-10
God has given Me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him who is weary. —Isaiah 50:4
The people of Israel were struggling. They had been taken captive by the Babylonians and forced to live in a country far from home. What could the prophet Isaiah give these weary people to help them?
He gave them a prophecy of hope. It was a message from God relating to the promised Messiah. In Isaiah 50:4, the Saviour Himself described the comfort and consolation He would one day bring: “The Lord God has given Me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him who is weary.”
These were words of dual comfort—both to the people in exile and to future generations whose lives would be touched by Jesus’ compassion. In the Gospels we see how Christ fulfilled the prophecy with “a word in season to him who is weary.” To the crowds who followed Him, Christ proclaimed: “Come to Me, all you who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matt. 11:28). Words of compassion indeed!
Jesus left us an example of how to minister to people who have grown weary. Do you know someone who needs a timely word of encouragement or the listening ear of a concerned friend? A word of comfort to the weary can go a long way. —Dennis Fisher
Neither life nor death can ever
From the Lord His children sever,
For His love and deep compassion
Comforts them in tribulation. —Berg
Compassion is needed to heal the hurts of others.
May The Good Lord Save Nigeria And Israel From All Our Enemies And Prosper Us Beyond Our Imaginations, In Jesus Christ Mighty Name We Pray, Amen!

Experience the Fullness of God’s Goodness. Wisdom is the principal thing
Image via Wikipedia
Proverbs 4:5,6,7 “Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. 6 Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.”
The wisdom of God is one of the most important principles that need to be in every Christian‘s life. Solomon says in this piece of scripture that while man is busy with so many things, by far the most important is to acquire the wisdom of God. It will change your life and empower you to experiencing the fullness of God’s goodness.

Experiencing the goodness of God and His infinite wisdom
Image via Wikipedia
Proverbs 3:13, 16-18 “Happy is the man that finds wisdom, and the man that gets understanding……….Length of days is in her right hand, In her left hand riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, and happy are all who retain her.”
The bible is referring to the power of Godly wisdom in your life. When you apply the Word of God, which is the wisdom of God to your life, you will find yourself on a path to fulfilling the destiny of God and experiencing the goodness of God like never before. Your life will be like tree planted by many waters, that never thirsts and never runs dry. Amen!

God’s Wisdom
Image via Wikipedia
GOD’S WISDOM
For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we
have the mind of Christ (1 Corinthians 2:16).
A certain man came back home from work one day and announced
to his family, “I’m tendering my resignation.”
“Why?” they all asked in shock and disbelief. The fellow was
just about to be given a major promotion in the multinational corporation where
he worked, and now he said he was leaving. “Why?” everyone wondered! “I have to
resign because I was praying and The Lord told me to” he replied.
Of course he went ahead to resign and not long afterwards
the hitherto conglomerate from which he resigned went bankrupt and folded up. Following
the wealth of experience he had garnered over time, he established his own
company and started doing very well, and he’s still doing extremely well till
date.
Notice that the man didn’t leave his former company because
it appeared the organization was going down, for at the time, everything seemed
okay with the company. He left because he knew the heart of God concerning the
company. Knowing the heart of God concerning a matter is wisdom.
Wisdom is not putting two and two together to make four;
that’s the wisdom of this world which isn’t bad, but it’s not good enough. True
wisdom, which is God’s wisdom, teaches that sometimes, what you may consider
the ideal may not necessarily be God’s choice. True wisdom is knowing and doing
the Will of Our Father in love.
This is where being a student of the Bible, and a man or
woman of prayer comes in. By studying God’s Word, you become acquainted with
the character of Our Heavenly Father; you receive insight into His Will for
your life, for His Word is His Will expressed. Through prayer, your Spirit is
conditioned in such a way that you operate in God’s frequency; you’re sync with
Him and hence able to receive His thoughts and follow the guidance of His
Spirit.
Spend time in prayer and the study of the scriptures, and
you’ll find yourself functioning always in wisdom – the wisdom of God. Remember,
you have the mind of Christ, which means you can know the heart of Our Heavenly
Father concerning any situation.
The Wisdom of God
guides me in the way that I should go. I only act and go in the direction that
the Spirit leads because that’s the path of success! My heart is open today, to
receive divine instructions that’ll guide me in the path of my prosperity and
destiny in Christ Jesus Name! Amen!
May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria
and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal

INVESTING IN THE FUTURE
Lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. (Matthew 6:20)
Jason Bohn was a college student when he made a hole-in-one golf shot that won him a million dollars.while others may have squandered that money, Bohn had a plan. Wanting to be a pro golfer, he used the money as a living-and-training fund to improve his golf skills. the cash became an investment in his future – an investment that paid off when Bohn won the PGA Tour‘s 2005 B.C Open. Bohn’s decision to invest in the future instead of living for the moment was a wise one indeed.
In a sense, that is what Our Lord Jesus Christ calls us to do. We have been entrusted with resources-time, ability, opportunity-and we decide how to use them. Our challenge is to see those resources as an opportunity to invest long-term. “Lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven”, is how Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ puts it in Matthew 6:20. Those protected tresures cannot be destroyed nor taken away, The Master assures us.
Think of your resources: talent, time, knowledge. These are temporal and limited. but if you invest them with an eye towards eternity, these temporary things can have enduring impact. What is your focus? Now or eternity? Invest in the future. It will not only have an eternal impact, but it will also change the way you view life each day. – Bill Crowder
Whatever is done in love for Christ
Will one day have Heaven’s reward;
Today let’s do what we can for Him,
Our loving Savior and Lord –Hess
The richest people on earth are those who invest their lives in Heaven
May God Almighty Our Heavenly Father
prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend them from all their enemies in Jesus
Christ Name, Amen!
