MFM MOUNTAIN TOP LIFE DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR DECEMBER 24, 2022 (WISDOM IS PROFITABLE (III)
TOPIC: WISDOM IS PROFITABLE (III)
Fire Scripture: Daniel 1:17-20
OUTLINE
Truly, wisdom is profitable. We saw its transforming power and wonders in the life and reign of King Solomon. Wisdom also distinguished Daniel in the land of Babylon and accounted for his rising profile. The Bible says that in all matters of wisdom and understanding, the king found Daniel and his three Hebrew brothers ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realms (Daniel 1:20).
Similarly, the wisdom of God distinguished Stephen, the first martyr. The Bible affirms that Stephen was committed to sharing the word of God and that the people who disputed with him were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spoke (Acts 6:10). I pray that the oil of wisdom will come upon your head and you will be distinguished in this generation, in the name of Jesus. Dear reader, wisdom also distinguished our Lord Jesus Christ.
The Bible calls Him One greater than Solomon. Jesus is the power and the wisdom of God to all believers (1 Corinthians 1:24) and all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Him (Colossians 2:3). Wisdom was a noticeable and distinguishing feature in the life of Jesus right from childhood. Luke 2:40 says, “And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.” Similarly, excelling wisdom was a hallmark of Jesus’ earthly ministry.
Matthew 13:54 attests to this truth, “And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?” As He did for Jesus, I pray that God will make you a positive wonder in this generation, in the name of Jesus. Beloved, if you get divine wisdom as Solomon, Stephen, Daniel and Jesus did, your life
