The Price of Wisdom and The Place of Understanding 3 – Sermon By Arm of The Lord Christian Ministry

Proverbs 9:1,2 ( Wisdom hath built her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars; She hath killed her beasts, she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table. )

By human wisdom, no one can understand God. The wisdom of man is corrupted after they obey the serpent in the garden. They walk in their own imagination, seeking divine presence, which they won’t find unless they pass through Jesus Christ.

The Bible says, “Doth not wisdom cry? And understanding put forth her voice? She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the path.”

The Word shines as light to every man who came to the world to direct the sons of men to the path of wisdom.

Wisdom says, ” Blessed are they that keep my ways, unfortunately many are under a curse for not keeping the way of wisdom. 

They walked in the path of the original curse which was supposed to break in repentance and followed the path of the generational curse and acquired one through their sins. 

Had they listened and obeyed the voice of wisdom, the curse would have been broken and makes them walked the path of freedom which Christ prepared by the sacrifice of his blood.

Wisdom is telling you not to tempt God, but foolishness makes you tempted him times without number, this only means you will remain in the camp of foolish people who despise the law of God. 

The level of your foolishness is revealed the moment you start doubting the word of wisdom. 

Is it the voice of wisdom you will obey or the voice of your pastor’s wife who preached otherwise with her dressing?

It’s only a fool that’ll say there is no God and live a life devoid of accountability to God and to man, not knowing what will happen in the end.

God gave wisdom to those who desired to know His way, wisdom can also be found in the word of those who fear God and follow his way, no one is wise enough to say they won’t listen to others, the moment you begin to see yourself as the only wise person who doesn’t need correction is the moment you become a fool. 

No one is wise enough not to learn from others, even Moses learned administration from his father-in-law, even though he was closer to God than any man, no man is an island. 

God turned the wisdom of Ahitofel to foolishness for he didn’t respect God and despised his anointed. 

If God give you wisdom to utilise under someone open heaven, don’t think that it’s by your power or might, if you rebelled and come out of the open heaven, the door of wisdom will close and you’ll turn to a foolish man in the eyes of many and even God. 

Remember that Satan’s wisdom was corrupted the moment he stepped out of God’s will to establish his own kingdom. 

The word of God is the wisdom of God, so also his christ, if you obey his commandment, you are wise indeed, if you do against it you have already pitched your tent with the reprobate to stay in the company of the dead.

Whoever despises God’s word hates his own soul and prefers to remain in darkness. 

I remember a message from a respected man of God and I quote it, ” that instead of me to argue with the word of God, I will rather remain on the safer side” that is to do what the word says so he won’t regret on the last day..

When the wisdom of God is telling you what to do now and you refuse, thinking the time has changed, so also the world is more civilised than the word and you follow your selfish desire.

That is when the word of God will come to you and says, depart from me you worker of iniquity, that is when you too will say, O had I know, I would have listen to instructions, and then God will also laugh at your calamity and will mock you when your fear comes, because you hate knowledge and not choose the fear of God. 

Prayer: Father lord tranfer me from the company of fools into your light in Jesus name amen.
