Wisdom Promotes

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

The God advantage is enough for you to overtake. All you need is the combination of divine wisdom, knowledge and understanding. There is a link between wisdom, knowledge and understanding (the difference between right and wrong) that helps one to make right choices); knowledge to drive out ignorance.

Wisdom is having a keen insight into life and the ways of dealing with life’s issues; an understanding of practical skills of life. It is also conduct that is orderly and morally upright. Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore devote time to acquiring wisdom. The blessings of wisdom include promotion; that is being lifted above your contemporaries; honor which translates into respect; favor which translates into goodwill and preferential treatment; glory which births radiance and beauty. The pursuit of wisdom is therefore critical.

There are two kinds of wisdom, earthly wisdom and heavenly wisdom (James Chapter 3 verses 13 to 18, Matthew Chapter 11 verse 19). Earthly wisdom is the natural way of doing things. One of its key attributes is that it is self seeking, envious and jealously competitive, and does not celebrate the talents and victories of others. It is always creating confusion and disorderliness. It cannot stand order. It is boastful and seeks to be recognized.

Heavenly wisdom is not dubious, has no hidden agenda and can be trusted. It is peaceable – live at peace with all men, gentle in disposition, tolerant, merciful, produces good fruits and results. It is sincere, no hypocrisy or lies.

Wisdom brings promotion that is not dependent on age, education, expertise, experience. Rather, it is dependent on God. Daniel was ten times better because he operated with the wisdom of God that God blessed him with. He received astronomical promotion.

Command Respect and Authority

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

God made man to rule. As a priest, you serve but as a king you rule. Please see Genesis Chapter 1 verse 28. One of the most instruments a king needs to rule is the ability to make decrees to rule (Proverbs Chapter 8 verse 15). Decrees on the other hand are made with words (Ecclesiastes Chapter 8 verse 4). The word power means the ability to produce and effect results. The moment a king’s word loses the effect; the king loses his throne. If a king’s word cannot move his subjects, he has lost his throne.

God created you to rule. As a child of God, when you speak, something must happen. Where the word of a king is there is power (Ecclesiastes Chapter 8 verse 4). This power is the ability to affect people to get the outcomes you want from them.  For your words to make things happen, you must be flexible in His hands. You should be like the clay in the potter’s hands. Please see Matthew Chapter 4 verses 19 to 25. How flexible are you in His hands? The only person that has the power to make you is the person you follow. True discipleship in Christ Jesus confers ownership and ruler ship of resources as one is divinely aligned with the king of kings, Lord of lords and the true owner and Ruler of all resources. When you progress to true discipleship in Christ, everything becomes yours and everything is added to you. That is why the process of becoming a true disciple is much more important and critical than seeking for bread. Multitudes followed Jesus for the bread but the disciples followed Him for a change because that change was necessary. Following just for bread does not empower you to rule. Therefore, seek first the kingdom of God because if you are genuinely following Him, things will follow you.

The Church should be stronger than what she is presently if only believers follow Him for who He is and not things. The Church should learn to fish and own the pond rather than asking for fish. Believers should be taught both how to fish and how to own the ponds so their fishing enterprises are sustainable. That way, they will have the mind of Christ through discipleship and ultimately always supersede the devil by introducing the mind of Christ and not fighting him.

For instance, the lion roared against Samson to stop him but Samson killed the lion. Beloved, you are also divinely capacitated to roar back at any lion that roars against you by decreeing the judgment of God against such lions.  You will tear the lions with your decrees in Jesus mighty name. You have entered the season in your life when every word you speak must produce an effect so that you can rule effectively in the midst of your enemies.

Every time Jesus Christ spoke, all of creation obeyed. Jesus spoke what had to come to pass in spite of all contradictory evidences. Please see Luke Chapter 5 verses 1 to 10, John Chapter 21 verses 5 to 11, Isaiah Chapter 55 verses 8 to 13. You can command respect and authority if you have great divine communication skills. Speak as God speaks and you command respect and authority. Speak where God wants you to speak and speak what God wants you to speak. There is a way to issue commands and they are immediately carried out. There is a way to ask questions and you get answers. There is a way to make requests and get the requests approved and granted.

Exercise Dominion in Your Sector

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

If there is anyone that should succeed in any business, it should be you because Genesis Chapter 1 verse 26 says so. It is the will of God for you. This means that as a believer, you should be at the top because dominion is your DNA. You are made in the image of God.

There is no best business, place or profession or field. Every business has its successes and failures as well as the secrets that make certain people exercise dominion certain sectors and why some people do a sprint away from certain sectors. Your sector is your sphere of influence; an area where you authority rules. However, you require great skills and expertise to exercise dominion in your sector. If you do not have the skills and expertise, you either learn them or hire them as consultants. But most importantly, always apply the wisdom of God in whatever you do. It is the wisdom of God that will always give you the edge you need to exercise dominion in your sector. The wisdom of God is all yours for the asking if you care to – James Chapter

Additionally, and quite instructive is the need to apply yourself. While skills and expertise are great assets; skills and expertise without a corresponding grace to complete assigned tasks especially as directed will not place you at the top. If you do not complete tasks assigned to you, how then do you exercise dominion? An uncompleted building, art work or dress is never a master piece and cannot be showcased in any competition. Only completed buildings, works of art, dresses et al can be showcased and categorized as master pieces. Huram had the grace to finish tasks as directed. So also were Bezalel, Oholiab and the team of gifted artisans who worked with them – Exodus Chapter 38 verses 22 to 23, 39 verses 42 to 43.

Respect Divine Opportunities

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

There are times to maximize opportunities. How? By respecting opportunities and leveraging them for success.
*      Invest in a fervent relationship with God.

*      Respect the grace of God in your life.

*      Study and meditate on the Word of God on a daily basis.

*    Respect the Holy Spirit and do not grieve Him

*      Therefore, do not push to tomorrow what you can do today. This is to say that you are to avoid procrastination as you can miss an opportunity through procrastination.

*      Do not despise people. Treat people with respect irrespective of their size and how they look.

*     Genuinely care about people and show them that you actually care. This is because people care about how much you care and not what you know.
