Walk With Me #Deararn.

My child, never forget the things I have taught you. Store my commands in your heart. If you do this, you will live many years, and your life will be satisfying. Never let loyalty and kindness leave you! Tie them around your neck as a reminder. Write them deep within your heart. Then you will find favor with both God and people, and you will earn a good reputation. Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil. Then you will have healing for your body and strength for your bones.

Proverbs 3:1‭-‬8 NLT

PRAY: Dear Lord, according to your word in James 1:5, If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you; I can ask you, and you would give me liberally. Please grant me wisdom for life today. Keep me safe by your grace. Help me place importance on my quest for Godly wisdom and embrace God’s knowledge and His ways. Lord, please help me stay away from paths that lead to death and destruction. I ask these in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

MEMORIZE: For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. He holds success in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, (Proverbs 2:6-7)

NAVIGATING THE NIGHT SEASONS

A walk through the Book of Proverbs.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,

but fools despise wisdom and instruction. (Proverbs 1:7)

My fellow pilgrim, welcome to this great season of your life. As you may have discovered, life is a trust, an assignment, a mystery; only the wise hold the key. You are at a great place in life, I can tell. It promises to get better, but only if you attend to the important issues and leave behind the mundane. Know that you are not alone in this journey, there are many of your climes also taking the ride. Together, we will walk through life, take into cognizance the issues that make for a great and rewarding experience here on earth and the life hereafter.

You see, life can be cheap if you are prepared, I mean if you have the right tools, or as this generation will say, "if you have the correct information, the right environment, and the right action."

The first to note is that you need help. You were not designed to go through life alone, and you are not meant to trudge on in darkness.

The Lord God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. (Genesis 2:18A)

Many folks have walked your path; they have tread where you are just about to walk. They are familiar with where you are trying to go. The wise thing to do is befriend them.

Even if you are a trailblazer, you still need help. Your trail may be new, but the required tools are all around. There are people positioned around you, include them.

You will need to recognize wisdom, many people have tried to define it, have wondered what makes for it, and some have inferred that wisdom is not an 'it', wisdom is the person of Christ Jesus. You need to find Him and follow Him with all you have. Whatever He tells you, however, He leads you; wherever He bids, your discovery will be useful.

Friend, life is deep, and only the wise can have access. Some depths appear as though they would swallow you, but in reality, therein lay treasures untold. Some sayings take their root beyond what the ordinary eye can see; you have to look with the eye of faith. Indeed, life is made up of mysteries, and only the wise can unravel them.

The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law. (Deuteronomy 29:29)

In locating the depths of life, you need lessons on the smart way to live. You require the knowledge of the 'how to' of life. It would help if you had the way of honesty, justice, and fairness. You need to have a strong sense of value, and you need to know the way of truth and its ability to stand alone. Equity, my friend, will make a star out of you.

When you embrace wise sayings, you will shine brighter than many stars in your time, your knowledge will increase, and you will be the man with the Midas touch. 

Never arrive in your own eyes, never presume to know. God sets man's destination in life; let Him show you. Keep striving to understand and stay willing to add to what you already know. There are many wise sayings, and not one person under heaven is the sole connoisseur. Be prepared to be a perpetual student.

The story is told of the nine blind men assigned to touch the elephant and report their findings. They came in with nine different views, all right but only parts of the truth. Know this, my friend; your opinion is only part of the puzzle, there are many other parts.

My dear young fellow, you are in the prime of your life! Yes, indeed, you are, but you must fear God, and your world will fear you. Show respect for matters of God's kingdom, show regard for God's people, that my friend is your sure way out of foolishness. 

You are young, I know, but there are things that age and experience alone can teach. Pay attention to the wisdom of the ages. What your parents put in you should form your character and give you a footing in life, do not despise them.

There is a stage in every young person's life; wanting to belong will be

The heart of the matter is a matter of the heart

What do we do with our wounded soldiers? What should we do with the wounded? The Bible recommends that we restore them in gentleness. Be kind and take care; you can trip up. When one of us is injured or derailed, it should not be for us an occasion to boast or berate. Most times, the person in the wrong already knows they are wrong. They are already beating themselves down and do not forget; the devil is already having a field day; we should not come in and continue the beating.

Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted. Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfil the law of Christ. If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves. Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else (Galatians 6:1-4)

So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall!

(1 Corinthians 10:12)

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. (Ephesians 4:32)

Remember, we are what we are by the grace of God. Be kind and gentle to others, especially when they are down; who knows, you may soon need them to be kind and gentle with you too.

Listen to the story behind Anne Ajadi"s Walk With Me, In The Footsteps Of Jesus

Guard Your Heart

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.

(Proverbs 4:23)

My friend, I thought I would let you know that the Master and I scheduled a visit to you this morning. I was sure that having been together for so long, pondering over God's will for us, everything would be in place. I assured the Master that you are one of the finest breeds on this side of the divide. He kind of gently cautioned that I should not raise my expectations too high. But I was hot in your defence; you have been a faithful follower of the way for a while now. I reminded Him of all your noble deeds and your love for the brethren. He agreed with almost everything I had to say in your favour. He only hinted that there was yet an aspect that you needed to work on. He affirmed that you are one of His arrows; He was just concerned about a little angle that may trip the whole thing.

His concern was the workings of your mind. I decided, therefore, to let you know that an inspection of your inner chambers will be carried out when we come. As a friend, I thought I would give you secrets that will help you to pass the test.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. (Philippians 4:8-9)

You see, if you can pass the heart test, you would be outstanding. Please be advised that you need always to set a door at your heart. Make sure the deliberations in there are what would bring about the peace that only the Master can give. I know the enemy would always want to sway you otherwise. Trust me, if you can make sure that all you think about remain true, noble, make sure your thoughts bring honour and keep them right and not allow anything less than excellent have room in your mind and do all that I have been telling you are what you do. If you can stay with this, you will find peace on all sides. Everything will work together for you. The Master will give you more room in the land.

You will be so happy and joyful your neighbours will envy you. Your life will be so rich and fruitful if you pay attention and watch the proceeds of your mind.

Beloved, did you get the note the Spirit sent to you this morning? What do you think? How are you doing? Is everything all right as far as thought patterns are concerned? Should we x-ray your mind, what would we find? How clean are your thoughts, will they pass the Philippians 4:8-9 test?

Just in case we fall short, what should we do? Run to the great Physician. He knows what to do.

He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do.

(John 6:6)

Take with you words, and turn to the Lord: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.

Hosea 14:2

One of the many things I resort to when I am in a bind is to go down memory lane. I cast my mind back to where I am coming from. I recall all the many times' God brought me through, and I draw strength to continue the journey. You see, I have been a recipient of God's goodness. I have been a partaker of His grace. I have tasted His mercy, and I have caught a glimpse of His glory.

I have seen enough in my short life to know:

* • God can be trusted

* • God is truly full of majesty

* • God is all power

* • God is good

* • God is able to save and deliver

I could go on, but I know you get the message. I have tasted the goodness of the Lord. I have seen the fellowship of His suffering; I see the glory that is to come. How can anyone be so sure you may ask? I have traversed some roads, and I have seen God show up that it is now difficult to convince me otherwise.

Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name; make known among the nations what he has done.

Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts. Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice. Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced, you his servants, the descendants of Abraham, his chosen ones, the children of Jacob. He is the Lord our God; his judgments are in all the earth. He remembers his covenant forever, the promise he made, for a thousand generations, the covenant he made with Abraham, the oath he swore to Isaac. He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant: “To you I will give the land of Canaan as the portion you will inherit.” When they were but few in number, few indeed, and strangers in it, they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another. He allowed no one to oppress them; for their sake he rebuked kings: “Do not touch my anointed ones; do my prophets no harm.” (Psalms 105:1-15)

The same God who helped you before will do it again.
