      Topic: The Most Needful Thing

      Table of Contents

      Memorise: Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. Proverbs 4:7

      Read: Proverbs 4:5-9 (KJV)

      Open Heavens Daily Devotional October 2, 2017

      5 Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.

      6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.

      7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

      8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.

      9 She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.

      Open Heavens Daily Devotional Messages: The Mercy And Grace of God

      Bible in one year: Romans 7-8, Daniel 2:17-30

      MESSAGE: King Solomon is considered to be the wisest king that ever lived. How did he become so wise? When God gave Him a blank cheque to ask for anything, in 1st King 3:9, he said:

      “Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?”

      He chose to ask for something that the average person of his time would consider inconsequential: wisdom. Solomon feared that he might misrule God’s people and thereby incur God’s wrath, and so he asked God for wisdom. Indeed, in Proverbs 9:10, he later wrote:

      “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.”

      Open Heavens Daily Devotional Messages: Don’t Be The Guinea Pig

      It is unfortunate to discover that even among some children of God today, the fear of the Lord is greatly absent. This accounts for the level of character erosion that is being witnessed in the Church, so much so that even pastors are being caught in various acts of sin, such as sexual immorality. Open Heaven 2 October 2017: Monday daily devotional by Pastor E. A. Adeboye – The Most Needful Thing. Joseph was repeatedly tempted and pressured to commit sexual immorality, but he vehemently refused to indulge in it, despite the fact that it was offered to him on a platter of gold. The Bible in Genesis 39:8-9 gives this account of Joseph’s steadfastness:

      “But he refused, and said unto his master’s wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what is with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand; there is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back anything from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?”

      If you ask me what kept Joseph away from this sexual immorality, I will tell you that it was wisdom, brought about by the fear of the Lord. How I wish all of God’s children would embrace the fear of God, so that they can begin to live in wisdom. It is wisdom to run away from sin, because the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). A foolish fellow would say, “Death will come one day all the same.” Such a fellow fails to consider untimely death like the one that took Absalom away (2nd Samuel 18:10-17), the agony of death that comes as a result of sin, and the eternal death in the Lake of Fire. Revelations 21:8 speaks of the Lake of Fire in these words:

      “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abminable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”

      Open Heavens Daily Devotional Messages: Delayed Provision

      For this reason, our Bible reading strongly recommends that we get wisdom. The question is, where can we get wisdom? It is from the word of God (2nd Timothy 3:15). Beloved, seek godly wisdom and don’t be lawless in the name of grace, because grace does not indulge in lawlessness.

      Prayer Point: Father, put Your fear in me, help me to love your word and give me wisdom.

      Today’s Daily Devotional Messages was written by Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God Worldwide. (RCCG)
