    HOW TO RECOGNIZE THIS WISDOM (6): WITHOUT PARTIALITY

    But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, …
    James 3:17 (KJV)

    Acting without partiality is a hard thing to do, but it is a godly thing and therefore worth doing. Part of growing to have the “wisdom that is from above” involves setting aside our automatic human reactions to situations and replacing them with how Yahweh would react. Before we start looking at how we’re to be impartial, it’s important to note that Yahweh doesn’t show partiality regarding whom He blesses with wisdom. James writes, “if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.” If you meet the basic requirements — seek Elohim and ask in faith (see James 1:5-6) — then Elohim will give wisdom regardless of your age, background, ethnicity, status, ability, etc. He is not a “respecter of persons” who shows favouritism or twists His rules based on who someone is (see Deut. 10:17; 2 Chronicles 19:7; Acts 10:34). This is very grave when we consider what I Peter 1:15-17 says, “15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation? 16 Because it is written, Be ye holy? for I am holy. 17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:” You only endear yourself to the Lord when you work according His Word.

    Part of becoming holy is learning to be like God, and one of the ways He operates is without showing favouritism. If we respect Him as Father, then we should know Him as impartial judge and respect Him by living in reverent fear. Interestingly, this sort of fear is called “the beginning of wisdom” (Ps. 111:10; Prov. 9:10, see also Prov. 15:33; Is. 33:6). Shortly before telling us the wisdom from above is “without partiality,” James gives us one example of what ungodly partiality looks like. James 2:1-4 says, “1 My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons. 2 For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment? 3 And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place? and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool: 4 Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?” When we show partiality we separate, make distinction, discriminate, and prefer one thing or person over another. That’s what diakrino means (G1252, Thayer’s dictionary definition). In contrast, wisdom is adiakritos — without diakrino (G87). Wisdom does not practice favouritism, discriminate, or see distinctions. When we respect God, who is impartial, we begin to learn wisdom and become more and more like Him. To show partiality is to not “be holy as the Father is holy.” In contrast, to act impartially is to become more like Yahweh. Selah!

    REMEMBER: This Divine Wisdom is without partiality.

    PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for your word to me today. I desire to function like you without partiality, so help me Father in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Receive the grace to live like Elohim in holiness in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • HOW TO RECOGNIZE THIS WISDOM (5): GOOD WORKS

    HOW TO RECOGNIZE THIS WISDOM (5): GOOD WORKS

    But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, …
    James 3:17 (KJV)

    Good works are simply actions that are good. Yahweh is the creator and definer of good. It is good to do everything He says is good. For example, the Bible tells us that Yahweh’s law is good and is given for our good: “Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good” (Romans 7:12). “Keep the commandments of the LORD and His statutes which I command you today for your good” (Deuteronomy 10:13). Yahweh is the creator and definer of good. It is good to do everything He says is good. For example, the Bible tells us that Yahweh’s law is good and is given for our good. Some examples the Bible gives of good works include keeping the commandments and giving to the poor (see Matthew 19:16-21); giving alms secretly (see Matthew 6:3-4); and even just giving someone a cup of cold water (see Matthew 10:42).

    Let us see more biblical examples of good works. In Matthew 25:34-36 Yahushua gives several specific examples in His parable of the sheep and goats: “Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’”

    The book of Acts celebrates the good works of a woman who died in the early years of the Church. “At Joppa there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which is translated Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and charitable deeds which she did. … And all the widows stood by him weeping, showing the tunics and garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them” (Acts 9:36, 39). Paul explained that Christians should not only stop doing bad things, but should do the opposite. In Ephesians 4:28 he wrote, “Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labour, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need.” Before we are converted, our “old man” does the works of the flesh, but our “new man” should do good works, reflecting the fruit of the Spirit. Everything that we do that is good can be called a good work, so studying and applying passages like Galatians 5:22-23 and Colossians 3:12-14 can help us grow in good works.

    James even defined right religion in terms of good works. “Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world” (James 1:27). James 2:16 demonstrates the importance of filling people’s physical needs, such as for clothing and food. Good works are the evidence of living faith, as James pointed out (James 2:14-26). When this Wisdom from above is at work in your life, you will surely overflow in good works.

    REMEMBER: Good works is the manifestation of the Wisdom from above.

    CONFESSION: I am from above. I came with divine Wisdom making me overflow in good works everywhere I go. Halleluyah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree that good works makes way for you this day for favour untold in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • HOW TO RECOGNIZE THIS WISDOM (4):  FULL OF MERCY

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Sunday May 23, 2021

    HOW TO RECOGNIZE THIS WISDOM (4):  FULL OF MERCY

    But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy  …
    James 3:17 (KJV)

    Mercy is defined as that aspect of Yahweh’s character in which He does not give people what they deserve.  Mercy is a disposition to be kind and forgiving.  It is the feeling that motivates compassion.  It is the force that alleviates distress and shows great kindness towards the distressed.  When you are full of mercy, you pity those who are afflicted and those who afflict and offend you. When you are full of mercy, your default response to those who hurt you is pity not vengeance.  This means that vengeful, get-even spirit is not divine Wisdom but earthly, sensual and devilish wisdom.  When you are full of mercy, you are patient with people’s quirks.  There are just people that behave odd and oppose everything.  When you are full of mercy, you exercise a lot of patience with people’s quirks. What person in your life has irritating quirks? How can you practice patience with that person this today and this week?  Colossians 3:12 admonishes to ‘Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;’ The bowel is the inner most being of a person which is often considered by Hebrews as the seat of the tenderer affections, especially kindness, benevolence, and compassion. This is telling us that our mercy should flow from our innermost being and not a fake camouflage.  That when you see someone in trouble, something should well up from your depth to show mercy to the person.

    Full of mercy means helping anyone around you who is hurting.  Our world is full of people that are broken, battered and hurting.  You don’t go about gossiping and killing them the more, instead you show them mercy by extending a helping hand.  When you see someone drowning, do you help rescue or contribute to the person’s sinking?  See who around you is obviously hurting—and then look for a way you can help this week. If you can’t find anybody, then you’re not paying attention. Look closer! Who in your life needs a second chance? How can you show that person mercy and compassion today and this week?  Full of mercy means giving people a second chance.  Yes they have blown it before, mercy says, try again.  Quit reminding them of how they failed before, let mercy erase their past while giving them a clean slate to win.  Full of mercy means doing good to those who are hurting.  Whether it is sickness, or marital distress, or career challenges, full of mercy, lains over to do good and offer help.  Maybe you’re suffering from an old wound that you have not been able to let go of. Choose to forgive and then turn it around for good. Who is that person in your life? Will you make a phone call or a visit this week?

    Full of mercy means being kind to those who offend you.  Friend hear this, offence is a must (see Matthew 18:7).  If you are going to achieve any worthwhile goal in your life, you are going to be offended in people and people are going to offend you, and some deliberately.  Make up your mind for advance forgiveness for anyone that finally offends you.  Look with pity on every offender.  Moreover, we offend God everyday, so we have no choice but to be kind just as we have been shown kindness by the Father.  How can you be intentional in showing kindness to those who offended you today and this week?  Full of mercy means building bridges of love to the unpopular. What person first comes to mind when you think of an outcast? Who spends their lunch breaks eating alone or doesn’t seem to have friends at soccer games? What specific thing will you do this week to bridge the gap between you and that person with love? Go ahead and show mercy today and always, that is Divine Wisdom in operation.

    REMEMBER:   The Wisdom from above is full of mercy.

    PRAYER:   Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for your word to me today.  I ask for grace to be full of mercy in my relationship with the people of this world in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE:   As you function in mercy, you shall obtain mercy from the Lord in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • HOW TO RECOGNIZE THIS WISDOM (3): EASY TO BE INTREATED

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Saturday May 22, 2021

    HOW TO RECOGNIZE THIS WISDOM (3): EASY TO BE INTREATED

    But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated …
    James 3:17 (KJV)

    The Greek word translated easy to be entreated is ‘eupeithes’ meaning easily obeying, compliant. According to James 3:17, one of the signs that God’s wisdom is at work in a person’s heart is that he is “easy to be entreated.” Such a person is approachable, reasonable, willing to listen, to be persuaded, and to yield. He is not stubborn, obstinate, controlling, or overbearing. The “wisdom that is from above” produces a mildness of disposition, a meekness of spirit, that characterizes true gentleness (see James 3:13). This doesn’t mean that this attribute swallows everything that comes hook, line and sinker. It does not mean that it accepts injustice and puts up with unrighteousness. This Wisdom ensures that justice prevails. It ensures that unrighteousness is eliminated. However, this Wisdom listens and seeks to understand the position of others without asserting oneself.

    When someone has (or is being told by others that he really does have) an “it’s-my-way-or-the-highway” attitude, that is a sign that another kind of wisdom is at work in his heart. This is the wisdom that “descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish (see James 3:15). This ungodly wisdom may display knowledge, shrewdness, and tactical or logical skill in arguing its point. But according to James 3:16, it produces confusion or disorder, a state of instability and disturbance where nothing is as it should be. It opens the door to all kinds of evil, driving away peace and harmony.

    Clearly, Yahweh’s wisdom is preferable to devilish wisdom. Although much could be said about the wisdom of Yahweh, at the core, it is “Christ crucified” (see I Corinthians 1:22-24). Because mankind was dead in sin and a slave to it, Elohim became man and was crucified in our place. Therefore, we no longer live for ourselves, but for Him who died and rose again on our behalf (see II Corinthians 5:15). A wise man will remember what his sin cost Yahweh, and will continually think, “not my thoughts but Thy thoughts; not my will but Thy will; not “my way or the highway” but “Thy way.”

    The meekness of wisdom is the way out from control, manipulation, and being wise in one’s own eyes. When one is seeking to be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, then he will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord (see Colossians 1:9-10). He will “show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom” (James 3:13). And that wisdom will first be “pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness [will be] sown in peace [by] them that make peace (see James 3:17-18).

    REMEMBER: The Wisdom from above is easy to be entreated.

    PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for your word to me today. I ask that you help me to function with this attribute in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree that you receive the grace to be easily entreated in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE SEAT OF WISDOM

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Wednesday May 19, 2021

    THE SEAT OF WISDOM

    For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
    II Corinthians 2:16 (KJV)

    Every car has seats. The seats are arranged in such a way as to accommodate a particular number of people and to give comfort to the passengers. Imagine, for instance, the lot of a car without seats? The driver may be a professional of several years, but he still needs where to rest his weight comfortably to drive the car. The seat of a vehicle plays a vital role in the functionality of the car. Wisdom too needs a seat, a place from which to operate. The mind is the seat of wisdom.  As one that is born again, you have a sound mind.  Before you got born again, you had a natural mind.  This is to be expected since you were a natural man.  But after you gave your life to HaMashiach, 2 Corinthians 5:17 says old things are passed away and all things are now new.  That means you became a new man, no more natural but supernatural.  You also had a natural mind, but after your encounter with the mystery of new birth, it became a sound mind or a supernatural mind.

    A sound mind is a gift from Yahweh to the redeemed.  Our opening text tells us that this sound mind is also the mind of HaMashiach. It is not just a lucky mind, but the Creator’s mind. There was a time darkness was upon the earth, the earth was without form and void; but the Creator’s mind went into operation, creating the beauty we see today. That mind gave shape to the shapeless world and filled the void with plenty.  “And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good…” (Genesis 1:31).

    You have that same type of mind! That means you have the creator’s mental capacity. The mind you possess can give shape to your life and fill your emptiness with treasures. It can overcome and destroy all forms of darkness. That shows us the calibre of mind a redeemed man possesses. You have what it takes to make things happen, so you cannot be stranded. That mind you possess is not common, but peculiar.  Therefore, you can produce uncommon and peculiar results.  You are indeed a man to be envied!  HaMashiach in whom is hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge says I have His mind (see Colossians. 2:3).  Therefore, in my mind is hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge — and that is the truth of it!  When your mind begins to function at HaMashiach’s frequency, you’ll be able to obtain supernatural results the way HaMashiach did. The Lord Yahushua displayed so much wisdom that men were astonished and said: “… whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?” (Matthew 13:54).  Thus, wherever that wisdom is in operation, mighty works are the proofs — that is mighty and outstanding results. Such results as would secure the ovation of men, remarkable evidences that cannot escape the attention of men, but commands their awe and respect! That’s a peculiar mind at work!

    REMEMBER:   The mind is the seat of Wisdom which in the believer is the mind of HaMashiach!

    CONFESSION:   My mind is an empowered mind.  My mind is the mind of HaMashiach, functioning at heaven’s frequency.  Glory!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE:   Grace to renew your mind with the Word comes upon you today.  Everything harassing your life and destiny is destroyed today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • NO COMPETITION – NO COMPARISON

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Tuesday May 18, 2021

    NO COMPETITION – NO COMPARISON

    For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.
    II Corinthians 10:12 (KJV)

    One of the things that the Lord will judge is the motive for which you did whatever you did. You are not in competition with any one. You are on your on lane and there is no other person that has your assignment in the same measure and dimension that you were given. For instance, because of the capacity that the Lord has given you, He is expecting you to establish minimum of 100 souls in your lifetime. The other brother right in your team, may have just 30 souls expected of him from the Lord. Then you go about looking at him in competition. You have done 50% of heavens target for you which is 50 souls established and you are beating your chest against the brother that has done 40 souls whose expected target from heaven is 30 souls established. You will arrive the shores of eternity as a failure, while that brother is crowned as one that succeeded. That is because it is written, “But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.” (Luke 12:48). This is the folly of competition. Your purpose is different in scope and measure. It is foolishness to sit on the lane of destiny looking here and there for who you are beating. You should compete with your yesterday. You must try to outdo your yesterday. That is how to improve and continue to go from strength to strength.

    In life, everybody is on their own lane. Even if we are doing the same thing, the scope and measure our heavenly Father is expecting from each of us is very different. You would be a failure if you seat to try to outdo your neighbour. It was Sir Francis Bacon, who said, “Envy is ever joined with the comparing of a man’s self; and where there is no comparison, no envy.” Comparison can breed inferiority complex where you conclude that you are no good or not as good as the other person. This mentality can cripple action and bring you to the place where you begin to operate beyond your Yahweh given potentials. There is no one that is like you. Someone may be good and exceptionally good in something, but you are also good in another thing even more than any one else. If you can concentrate on your purpose and stop comparing yourself, you would develop your potential to excellence. But comparison cripples mentality, you must stop it now.

    Comparison robs you of joy. Comparing yourself to others will always cause you to regret what you aren’t, rather than allow you to enjoy life as who you are. It will always steal the joy and happiness that is within your reach… and place it just outside of your reach instead. You are complete in HaMashiach (see Colossians 2:10). Nothing is lacking in you at all. Focus on your assignment and rejoice in HaMashiach that gives you strength. Shalom!

    REMEMBER: No competition; no comparison. It is not wisdom doing so.

    CONFESSION: I know who I am. An heir of Yahweh and a joint-heir with the Lord Yahushua. The lines are fallen unto me on pleasant places, yeah I have a good heritage. Halleluyah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I kill that tendency for comparison in your heart in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • EVALUATION, REPLANNING AND FOLLOW-UP

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Sunday May 16, 2021

    EVALUATION, REPLANNING AND FOLLOW-UP

    Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
    I Corinthians 13:5 (KJV)

    There is need to evaluate and re-evaluate to make sure that you are on course with your purpose. In life, you must learn to be following yourself up on your purpose and plans. This is crucial because things will come to discourage you, to distract you, to engage you in other seemingly important things which are not connected to your purpose and plans. The purpose of evaluation is to ensure alignment. As you sit down to evaluate your plans, you would come to the point to make adjustments, or to re-plan completely. Facts that necessitated some actions may have changed drastically that would need new strategies to ensure you are on course. Except you sit down to evaluate you may not discover these facts. As you go in the course of pursuing your purpose, you may come to situations of total distraction. Distractions are real. Most times, you would have deviated for a long time but for quick evaluation of your purpose and identifying the seemingly good thing that is now taking your time that was never part of your assignment in the first place. You must make weekly examination and evaluation your lifestyle, if you desire to maintain a constant focus on your assignment.

    When you see indices that have changed drastically by the leading of the Holy Spirit, you could re-plan. This is coming to the drawing table with new facts and redrawing the plan to reflect the new reality but ensure that you are doing all that being spiritually minded. That is allow the Holy Spirit to be the leader in all things about your purpose. This is because, your purpose is divine agenda and no divine agenda can be accomplished in the energy of the flesh. You require the leading and active participation of the Holy Spirit to fulfill divine agenda of which your purpose is. You must be that person that the Holy Spirit can interrupt with correction on your operations at any time He sees fit. You must not be so static like a statue. Don’t refuse correction of the Holy Spirit, if you desire to fulfill your purpose. You are not infallible. Sometimes, you can genuinely be wrong. You must learn to turn at His rebuke because He rebukes those He loves (see Hebrews 12:5-6).

    You must also learn to follow yourself up. Why is that important? Especially when you are succeeding, you can just relax whereas though man is clapping for you, heaven is weeping that you have started to waste time and to relax while there are still so much ground to conquer. You must learn to follow yourself up to ensure that you are not relaxing while you should be gaining more speed and accelerating more vigorously. Your purpose is a serious matter because you will stand before the Lord to give account one of these days. Wake up!

    REMEMBER: You need weekly evaluation of your purpose and plans.

    CONFESSION: I am set on the course that I must follow. It’s my destiny and I am committed. I am wholly given to the rebukes and corrections of the Holy Spirit at all times. Glory be to Elohim!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Be rescued today from every satanic distraction in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE PURSUIT OF PURPOSE

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Saturday May 15, 2021

    THE PURSUIT OF PURPOSE

    And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
    Habakkuk 2:2 (KJV)

    “That he may run that reads it.” The aim of the Lord for showing us our vision is so that we can run with it. Accomplishment is the plan of the Lord Yahushua for showing us the purpose and vision of our lives. You are not shown your vision for analysis and discussion. “That he may run that reads it” There is a running or pursuit agenda that the Lord has for you. The process is discovering purpose and in the process seeing where the Lord has earmarked for you to function in the kingdom. After you have discovered this, you are expected to sit down and count the cost by planning. This planning will task your mind to reason analytically, spiritually, intellectually and realistically. After you are done, there must be “no brain excuse”. There are people that believer that they don’t have the required mental capacity to pursue their purpose, especially when they compare with others. Philippians 4:13 says, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” I Corinthians 2:16 says, ‘For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.’ The mind or intelligence of HaMashiach is superior to the mind of any other mortal and that is the mind/intelligence you have when you were born again. You have no excuse at all.

    There are others that give the “age excuse”. “Oh, I am too old or young to do this.” “If I came across this ten years ago, I would have gone far, it is just too late for me now”. That is the lie of the Devil. You are just on time if you start today. Romans 8:28 says, “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” If you are still young, then you have enough time to create a worldwide impact. If you are old, then you don’t have eternity to fulfill destiny, your task is urgent and you must go fast. You cannot afford to arrive the shores of eternity to meet your maker with excuse. No excuse will be tenable because all through the ages they are people with worse situation than yours that have gone ahead to fulfill their purpose and make their Creator happy.

    Remember that your works shall be weighed in the balance. Your works shall be tried by fire (see I Corinthians 3:13). The issue of pursuing purpose is not only for earthly relevance and success but of eternal consequences. What are you going to say to the Lord when you appear before Him (see II Corinthians 5:10)? Our collective purpose here on earth, is to fulfill the great commission in Mark 16:15-20; Matthew 28:18-20. Are you laying out plans to be successful in pursuing after the lost and extending the lifeline of the gospel to them. You don’t need to go fasting to locate purpose, preaching the gospel is our most important urgent purpose on earth today. That is the reason you were not raptured the day you were saved. You were left here to win souls. Don’t fail. Selah!

    REMEMBER: Salvation of souls is our sole purpose on earth today. Pursue that.

    CONFESSION: I am here on assignment to turn many unto righteousness. I am here as a soul-winner. It is urgent because the time is running out. I shall not fail. Halleluyah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Whatever that is hindering you to executing your purpose of soul-winning is cursed today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
