It all went wrong when the anointed cherub allowed his heart to be corrupted. One main aim for all the lessons life will throw at us is to know who we really are; the state of heart. Proverbs say, "As a man thinks so is he". The contemplation in your heart defines you. Who are you?

One question life will always ask you is, “whose advise will you listen to?”. Whether we are aware of it or not, we are all influenced by people’s advice. Wisdom is in knowing whose advice you listen to and those to reject. Rehoboam failed this question, may that never be our story. Wisdom is the ability to know whose advice to listen to and those to reject.

There is a time for everything under the sun. As simple as this truth seems it determines to a large extent those that rise and those that fall. Gehazi missed it all because he took gifts at the wrong time. The sons of Issachar led the Israelites simply because they knew what ought to be done at each moment

Why was Samson with lady who has attempted to deliver him to his enemies thrice. We always seem to overestimate ourselves and think that we can surround ourselves with certain people and not be influenced by them. Just by not walking in the counsel of the unglody, nor standing in the way of sinners, nor sitting in the sits of the scornful we are blessed. The opposite happens to those who do like Samson

The little recorded about Vashit speaks volumes about the lady she was. Though very beautiful she need more to sustain what her beauty got her, which is wisdom. According James wisdom is easily entreated but Queen Vashit could not be entreated by 7 nobles to heed to the King

The bible can be referred to as the "past questions and answers" to life. The truths in the Bible among others are to teach us how to make right choices in life. It is not just about learning from what others did but also learning from the mistakes of others. Judas valued his relationship with Jesus, the uncreated creator for 30 pieces of sliver. Don't repeat the same.

Patience is as a result of a tested faith. A faith that is not tested cannot be trusted to guarantee results. In a quest to build whatever vision God has given us for this year, endurance and long suffering in addition to faith is what will get the vision accompanied

Not being fully convinced of our advantage as God's children causes us to abandon projects. One arsenal we take for granted is prophesies, so Paul had to remind the church not to despise prophesying.

We cannot afford to be naive regarding the several giants that seek to rob us of the energy and joy with which we will need to finish projects we start. Without even realizing our dreams remain dreams. Jesus at Gethsemane wanted to throw in the towel and so will we also want to be passive and even abandon projects we start.

The joy and energy with which we have dreams and start projects seems to be non-existent not long after. The characteristics of our Father is, He declares the end from the beginning and finishes whatever He starts. And as his, children we are to be imitators of God.
