GOD WANTS YOU TO BE ERUDITE.
Tuesday, May 6th .
Pastor CHRIS
And that from a child thou hast known
the holy scriptures, which are able to
make thee wise unto salvation through
faith which is in Christ Jesus (2 Timothy
3:15) .
In 2 Peter 1:5, when the Apostle Peter
said, “And beside this, giving all
diligence, add to your faith virtue; and
to virtue knowledge…” he used the
Greek word, “gnosis” for knowledge.
“Gnosis” is knowledge that you gain
through intellectual activity; knowledge
based on science. Therefore, he deals
here with mental prowess! God wants
you to put your mind to work; become
erudite. He wants you to acquire
intellectual knowledge, be smart and
informed. That’s why He gave you a
sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
When the Holy Ghost comes into your
life, you become sound. He brings
mental soundness and intellectual
sagacity into your life. The Bible says
that Jesus Christ is the embodiment of
all knowledge; meaning that He knows
everything about every career, field
and discipline, and can pass some of
that information to your mind; so that
everyday of your life, and in every
situation you find yourself, you'll know
what to do! Your mind will be active,
and your intellectual capability will beat
its optimal potential.
Knowledge is so important. If you
don’t have knowledge, you're going to
be a loser, even though you have faith;
you’ll be cheated. God said my people
are destroyed for lack of knowledge
(Hosea 4:6). This is why you must
study. In addition to acquiring
revelation knowledge, God also wants
you to have scholastic wisdom. He
wants you to be able to deal wisely and
excellently in the affairs of life. This
becomes a reality as you meditate
constantly on His Word: “This Book of
the Law shall not depart out of your
mouth, but you shall meditate on it
day and night, that you may observe
and do according to all that is written
in it. For then you shall make your way
prosperous, and then you shall deal
wisely and have good success”(Joshua
1:8).
PRAYER
Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for
the inspiration, comfort, counsel,
guidance and wisdom I receive from
your Word today and always! Your
Word has made me wise unto
salvation, teaching and guiding me to
deal wisely in all affairs of life, in Jesus’
Name. Amen.
