We are walking in today:  Nothing Is Yours Until You Discover It, Ask For Wisdom.

Minister Cherelle gives a definition of wisdom--operate in wisdom, oh the depths of riches in wisdom and knowledge of God.  How unfathomable, inscrutable, unsearchable, His judgements, His discernment and how untraceable, mysterious and undiscoverable are His ways, methods and paths!  Romans 11:33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!  Without wisdom, we can make poor decisions and later wonder why we didn't pray first.  It is wise to seek God early each day before we start making decisions in order to know ahead of time what we ought to do.  Then to receive the grace to do it.  Wisdom keeps us from a life of regret.  I wish.  I coulda.  I shoulda.  Jesus Christ of Nazareth operated in wisdom.  When others went home to rest, He went to the mount of olives to spend time with the Lord God Almighty!  Early in the morning at the crack of dawn, He came back into the temple and taught the people.  Jesus the Messiah always spent time with the Father before facing the crowds.  If Yeshua needed time with the heavenly Father, then we certainly need it, even more! Walk in wisdom today, if you will--amen.
John 1:17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.  We must ask for wisdom!  Wisdom will make us apply the word. The law is above your faith.  It is above your belief system, it's above everything in your life.  Jesus Christ is the one who gave the law!  The law is superior to your faith.  God wrote the law before we were even created!  Your belief in your faith is not greater than the law.  We must follow instructions of our Lord God's laws!  Example, there are speed limit signs as we travel the highways.  If we go over that speed limit we get pulled over by someone who enforces the law.  Sandy Bell is a law enforcement officer.  Just like the police enforce the law, so does our Father.  We have agreed to something unknown.  As Rabbi Messer spoke about the battle for the throne, is a battle for our minds.  The law is greater than your mind!  We must trust the king who wrote the laws, understanding is more important than knowledge. Remember--Proverbs 4:7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.  Understanding, knowledge and wisdom, these three words are used together in God's communication.  The Lord God in heaven, asked Solomon what he wanted, his response was wisdom, understanding and knowledge (2 Chronicles 1:7:12).  We must know that,  the path of life is different from the destination!    Solomon asked for three things--knowledge, wisdom and understanding.  The battle for the throne: knowledge, understanding and wisdom.  The first word is knowledge, it means information.  The second word, understanding means comprehension and the third is wisdom which means application.  First you get the information then once you understand then you can apply it to your life.  At Divine Journey on Sunday, Pastor Vermont taught about the word easter.  It is actually a pagan holiday.  Christians should not be caught saying the phrase happy easter.  We should be saying Happy Resurrection day!  So guess what?  You got knowledge, understanding and the wisdom is to apply what you have learned and get a changed mindset.  You get up and say Happy Resurrection day.  Wisdom is supreme, you can have knowledge and understanding but not apply wisdom.  As long as we are getting 2 our of 3 many don't care about applying it.  God has already chose those who will apply it.  Matthew 7:25-29 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. 28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: 29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes. The ultimate goal is wisdom.  To apply it to our lives!  Apply the application but most important goal in life is understanding.  Understanding destroys the spirit of frustration!  Matthew 13:1-3 1 The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side. 2 And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore. 3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow.  Parables hide the truth from the listener so that they can discover it when they are ready!    Parables use small stories that people can relate to--nothing is yours until you discover it.  That is the premise of the parable.  It doesn't matter how much information the teacher has, it is not yours until you discover it.  We don't want to be responsible for what we are learning!  Matthew 13:10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?  Parables make you dig deeper, the word disciple is not a religious word, it is an academic word, that means student or learner.  That is why the truth is hidden from the multitudes, they only want to be entertained.  God gave the principle to the prophet--Psalm 119:2 Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.  Matthew 16:13-19 13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? 14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.  Luke 11:52-53  52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered. 53 And as he said these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to urge him vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many things.  Revelation 1:17-18  17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: 18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.  All wisdom will be tested!  John 20:16-17 16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master. 17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.  It is possible to hear information but not get understanding that wisdom is the key to everything.  Because everything the Lord God in heaven, has given us is to be applied to our lives that we have a lifestyle patterned after Yeshua!  You can get the knowledge, understanding but if you don't have wisdom to apply the word of God, where does that leave you?!  Where indeed!   You have to take this application from Genesis to Revelation and begin to apply it.  He left us with the keys so when Jesus Christ said I AM He who went to hell and took the keys--we have the keys they are on the inside of us!  We should know that we know that we know that every word that proceeds out of our mouth is true.  Because the Holy Spirit leads and guides us to all truth!  Get up this morning and begin to understand and know that even in getting understanding if you don't have the wisdom to apply it to your life you are still loosing and missing out on getting true revelation knowledge from who our Father is!  So when you go to the word, He says if any man wants wisdom, for him to ask for it.  Open your Bible and say give me wisdom, Lord God in heaven!  When You tell me something about myself that I need to change it.  Without delay or push back nor questions why.  It is time to line up with the word!  That we must operate in the wisdom of God, to turn from our ways and to only see the true, holy and righteous way!  Ask the Lord, how He would have you to walk?  Ask Him for wisdom.  We are to be transformed by the renewal of our minds!  Get in the word and ask for wisdom to walk in that renewed mind!  We have to renew our minds daily!  Give me Your mind, God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.  We must have wisdom to walk in Your truth!  Wisdom to line up with the word of God!  Give us wisdom to seek You like never before!  Wisdom to know that we must line up with Your word, no matter what we feel like.  No matter what it looks like!  Trust in the word of God, it stands forever!  Let us lean not to our own understanding!



If you don't have wisdom of knowledge and understanding applied to your life, how are you looking to walk after Jesus Christ of Nazareth?!  We must turn from our ways and look to the ways of the God of Abraham, Isaac or Jacob.  We are to read His word to have a renewed mind.  Ask the Lord God in heaven for His wisdom to walk in His word.  We must line up with His word, no matter what it looks like!  The steps of the righteous man are ordered by the Lord.  Walking in wisdom, the application of God's word and understanding in your life will change your lifestyle.  So you go to church to hear the word but do we have a change in our lifestyle? Once you get a hold of revelation knowledge, don't you want to see a change?  We must really get a revelation of what truth is?  What wisdom is?  He is speeding up the process.  We have not because we ask not!  Ask Him for His wisdom, that you will be able to walk this out and apply it to your life!  No weapon formed against us shall prosper!  We want to walk according to what God's word says!  Many will walk in 2 out of 3.  You hear the information and comprehend it and yet don't walk in the application of the in your life?  We have to get out of disobedience!  We have to fix what is out of the will of our Lord God.  It is time to get your house in order!  It takes wisdom to do that!  We have to do that reflects the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob operating in our lives.  We have to really get what this revelation of truth is!  What is wisdom?  You just keep living the same way and the word of God is not being allowed to cause a change in your life because you won't apply it!  We walked through 30 days of the taming of the tongue.  Yet there are still many that are still shacking up.  We must apply wisdom!  You know what the word of God says, that a man finds a wife.  Go to church and study the word of God to get wisdom!  Seek out knowledge, understanding and wisdom from His word!  That we will get out of living out of order with His word.  We have the word of God as our guide to see where and if we have missed the mark.  Time to line up and no longer walk in a wayward fashion!  We should be teachers by now!  We must gather together, don't you know that iron sharpens iron?  Isaiah 1:17-19 17 Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow. 18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. 19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land.  Last Monday, He had us walking in fear God.  We have to keep seeking Him!  When there was a question about the name of Jesus we found the purest form of His name--Yeshua!  We find that saying Jesus alone was not sufficient, to be clear we need to use more of His name to be clear to who it is that we cry out to, who is it that purchased our salvation, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the Messiah, Yeshua Ha-Mashiach (Jesus the Messiah).  We serve the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob!  We have to apply what we have received and know to our lives!   Ask Him for His wisdom!  Then you must line up with His word, no longer seeking the wisdom of men.  It is time to get this right!  No more doing this half way.  God brought  us confirmation through Minister Cherelle reading the definition of wisdom on Sunday at Divine Journey.  He is telling us to apply it!  Don't just read the word everyday and only have knowledge and understanding.  We find the keys in His word!  Your children should have the keys, are you teaching them?  Jesus Christ, Himself was a Rabbi and was given keys when He was buried, according to the Jewish tradition.  That is how He got the keys to death, hell and the grave.  We have got to apply His word so we can get this right!  They that hunger and thirst for righteousness shall be filled!  We have to apply the knowledge and understanding to our lives!  No more traditions of men!  Oh, Lord God, teach us how to apply Your word in our lives--that we are pleasing only You!  No more lies or foolishness!  Any man who wants wisdom, ask!  Thank You Lord!    We must ask for God's wisdom!  Not the wisdom of the world!  Ask for His knowledge, His understanding, His discernment, and His wisdom!  Who's wisdom do you want?  We want God's understanding, knowledge, discernment and wisdom.  Leave no stone unturned!  With no cracks, breeches or gaps--we seal this hedge of protection with the mighty blood of Yeshua!  Wisdom truly comes from God and that is who you are to ask for for it!  He is the Living God, walk in this life according to His word!  Thank You God for revealing and teaching us like this daily.  Don't lean to your own understanding!  Everything we seek for, it is not yours until you find it!  Ask Him for wisdom!  Through all of your getting get understanding!  Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.  Lord God cover every prayer request that is being sent up, asking for wisdom.  We come asking for repentance, that we will no longer walk in disobedience.  We come to ask for forgiveness!  We know that there is no condemnation. We don't want to be turned over to a reprobate mind.  Lord God in heaven, give us wisdom!  Show us how to operate in His word!  His word stands forever!  Give us wisdom, that we can speak life or death--stop speaking death over your life!  Mark 7:20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.  We have got to hear this, faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of the Living God!  We will speak life, we will speak what our Abba speaks!  Lord God in heaven give us wisdom to be still, that we be quiet at Your direction only!  Lord God in heaven let us be still at Your direction only!  Ask God Almighty for wisdom!  To hear this again click here.

We seal this prayer in the precious blood of Jesus of Nazareth, the only Begotten of the Heavenly Father and by the Holy Spirit: 
Lord God in heaven, we need Your wisdom!


Welcome to the overflow...
Heavenly Father, lead, guide and direct us into all truth!  You are the teacher and we the disciples(students).  We have to apply wisdom!  When Solomon asked for wisdom, God gave what we didn't even ask for!  Now you can open up the treasures from Genesis to Revelation.  Now we get the keys, no longer a mystery!  For His word of wisdom, knowledge and understanding.  Keep reading the word, you will get new revelation knowledge and we must know Him for Himself!  This is about a personal relationship with Him!  Seek Him for yourself!  He spoke to us in parables hiding the truth until we are ready to find and hear the truth.  We must dig in to find the truth.  The multitudes only want to be entertained.  Ask the Lord God in heaven for discernment and wisdom!  Ask God to lead you to the truth!  Apply His word to your life!  We are keeping Pat lifted for the surgery this day at noon.  We lift up Aspen Christian College and  Dr. Columbus.  The Living God told us at the beginning of the year, that the Earth is ripe, the soil is rich and everything is producing fruit!  We are in new Jerusalem!  We are in the upper room, we are the remnant!  Just ask for the wisdom, the Lord God will give it!  Ask Him, He wants to give it to you!  You need to run to the word this morning!  Get the knowledge and understanding then apply it to your life!  Read the word for yourself, get ready for revelation knowledge!
