WISDOM MAKES YOU PLEASANT
Scripture
Proverbs 3:17 KJV
"Her ways are ways of pleasantness, And all her paths are peace".
Message:
God is love and wisdom is a product of love, this is why it is called the wisdom from above. There is earthly wisdom, sensual wisdom, diabolical wisdom and all types of wisdom, but the superior and most important is the wisdom of God. The wisdom of God is called, "the wisdom from above". It is from above and above and superior to all others.
The scriptures says in James 3:17 (KJV) "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, and without hypocrisy". The wisdom of God makes you pleasant and sweet, when you are too tough, harsh and corky, there is a problem? Wisdom will help you to constantly examine and advice yourself.
The effect of this is adjustment where and when necessary. You can be principled and at the same time pleasant and sweet, stop carrying your challenges on your face, stop the transfer of aggression, there is nothing you are going through that is new under the sun. The word "pleasant" means, "enjoyable, attractive, friendly and easy to like, sweet" etc. If you are foolish and unpleasant, people will use style to stay away from you.
One of the things that kills fast is to live and do life alone, God has not ordained it to be so. We are the sheep of His pasture, and sheep moves together, they dont move one by one. It is goats that move alone. If you see a sheep moving alone, it is lost and will definitely be crying. When a believer starts living and doing things alone, it is a danger signal. Wisdom will make you pleasant and sweet and will attract the right people to come around you.
Things to note:
(1) You can be principled and at the same time pleasant and sweet. This is a possibility.
(2) Wisdom will make you pleasant and sweet and will attract the right people to come around you.
Prayer.
Father baptise me with your wisdom that will make me pleasant and sweet all the days of my life, in Jesus name.
