The Wise Ones

Proverbs 3:13 says, "blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding" and Proverbs 3:15 says, wisdom is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her (her being wisdom). What that all means is, when we obtain wisdom we are blessed and better off for it, because we're more equipped to make better decisions. Nothing can match wisdom. It means we're wiser than we were yesterday. We have taken the knowledge we have gained through our life's experiences -- what we've learned from the people, places, and things we've encountered and now we can apply that knowledge, as applicable, in our lives. Thus, wisdom goes a long way and it will produce awesome things. We all need wisdom and we can seek God to get it. In 1 Kings 3:1-15, in a dream God asked Solomon what He could do for him and Solomon asked for wisdom. God granted him wisdom, because Solomon didn't ask for riches for himself or harm for his enemies. We have to believe that what we ask for we will receive. Have you asked God for anything lately? Wisdom perhaps? He's available for the asking and He will give you what you need. 

Hear what Sha Sha has to say about wisdom. Sha Sha is my avatar, so her face is based on my face and the voice you hear is actually me speaking through her.

God blesses whomever he wants to bless, whenever he wants to bless them

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa

Speak things as if they were

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. Do you know you have the power to speak things into existence? Do you know you have the power to change your atmosphere? Oh yes, so speak life to your life and know that the Lord's Word never comes back void. It is always alive and active. It's never too late to start speaking over your life. In   Mark 11 :24 Jesus says, "therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours"  and   Proverbs 23 :7 says, "for as a man thinks in his heart, so is he."  Those verses are proof that when something lives in our heart, all we have to do is open our mouths and speak those things as if we already had them. It's amazing how much power we really have, but we throw it away, because of our lack of faith. I've done that for years and let me tell you, it's not happening anymore. I'm not giving no thing, no one, and no place another inch of m
