hello Church what a privilege to once
again bring you God’s word his word in
season for you during this time so
whatever you’re going through right now
God knows all about you even like you
feel like I’m a face in a crowd does God
give me personal attention yes Jesus
said your father numbers the hairs on
your head
that is very intimate uh detailed
concern amen he cares for you and he
cares for what you’re going through
that’s love and we cannot fathom this
kind of love because our love is very
general we love a person because of what
they do for us uh not because of
unconditional love many times amen we
are learning to walk in unconditional
love but God’s love for you is
unconditional he pays attention to every
detail in your life fear not little
flock and when he said that there were
many around him who are people who are
out of fellowship with God people who
are not walking with God besides his
disciples who are learning to walk with
God but nonetheless he said to all of
them
your father who cares for the birds of
the air he knows what you’re going
through he numbers the hands on your
head know you not that you have more
value than all the birds of the air whom
God fits amen whom God takes care of
then he says behold the Lilies of the
Field
all the grass of the field which today
is and tomorrow is cast into the oven it
is all dried up when the sun comes out
during the the season of Summer
but yet he says your father cares for
this temporal grass how much more will
he care for you amen then he says did
the even Solomon who was the richest man
in history he says that even Solomon in
all his glory was not arrayed like one
of these flowers one of this grass amen
then he says it got so close the grass
of the field which day is and tomorrow
is cast into the oven how much more will
he clothe you think about that he
Compares Solomon with the grass and said
that the glory of the grass
that God gives to it is greater than the
glory of Solomon but then he goes on to
say but God cares for you more than the
grass which is greater than Solomon’s
glory amen so how much more will God
care for you praise the Lord I believe
that we are going through a season where
we are seeing things happen all over the
world that that is shouting out like
shortage amen recession
and yet God’s people are worried they
are anxious they are troubled by what
they are saying that goes to show that
we are spending lots of our time on
social media we are watching the news we
are hearing the reports of the world
instead of spending time in the word of
God and the word of God is the only
place where you can find Faith the Bible
says faith comes by hearing and hearing
by the word of God you cannot find Faith
anywhere else you know if faith comes by
hearing the word and the word of God
then fear comes by hearing and hearing
the word of man
amen and the fear the that fear brings
us land that fear will cause bad things
to happen in fact uh in the Book of Job
it says the thing which I greatly feared
has come upon me so fear has no part in
in the in the child of God’s life amen
and for you God doesn’t want to be
afraid that’s why every time an angel
appears to a servant of God a child of
God is always the first word from the
Angel’s mouth is fear not and Jesus
favorite expression is always talking to
his disciples especially fear not it is
I Be not Afraid and is always his
refrain amen time and time again don’t
be afraid so how how can we not be
afraid seeing what is happening all over
the world we can by listening to God’s
word you know if you are depressed if
you are you are anxious you are worried
amen you wake up in the middle of the
night and you are thinking about what is
to come and and it’s a foreboding uh uh
kind of fears that is closing in upon
you in in the hours of Darkness
especially then you’re experiencing
depression the only way out of that is
to hear your way out of it
and faith comes by hearing hearing the
word of God and and that word of God we
have established in another sermon that
uh we have shown you that faith comes by
hearing hearing by the word of God but
the preceding verses tells us how shall
they hear without a preacher so find a
preacher whose word you know is Gospel
centered is Jesus centered and is Grace
centered because that’s a new covenant
word amen and as you listen to it you’ll
find yourself of a sudden Faith Springs
Eternal amen Health Springs speedily
amen you’ll find that that that fear
that fear will just you look for it like
the Bible says you you look for your
enemy and you will find him no more all
of a sudden he’s gone without focusing
on it you know the way you you get rid
of darkness in a room is not by cursing
the darkness by scolding the darkness
but by switching on the light amen
listen to God’s word amen listen to
anointed preaching of God’s word you
know I’ve made my my sermons uh
thousands of them for all this uh 15
years of sermon Amen on Grace Center
Jesus centered uh sermons available
online
as for all those who are gospel partners
and all those who subscribe to
josephprince.com amen and uh download
that that Joseph Prince app you’ll find
thousands of sermons there for every
need of your life and time and time
again we are receiving so many
testimonies of people whose lives are
transformed marriages turn around and
our bodies are healed Supernatural
breakthroughs in the area of finances
and a great restoration especially in
the area of uh seeing God as who he is
for the very first time a god of love
amen so you cannot have all these
Visions from God you cannot have all
this perspective and wisdom without
hearing anointed messages amen and
that’s where faith comes in the context
of a Preacher preaching the word amen if
we look at the the Bible uh the word of
God and we we look at the richest man
the wealthiest man in history and we
have established that we are not into
love of money we are not into wealthy
I’ve been just being wealthy because you
can be wealthy and still be a poor man
amen wealthy finances and accumulation
of of possessions and yet be a poor man
why you don’t have God you don’t have a
a blessed family you don’t have
successful relationships you know people
talk behind your back and you just leave
it plenty of of money because like uh
the one who beats another person when he
ends his life with more possession wins
no my friend that’s that’s that’s the
greatest way to lose in life a man to
enjoy life you know it is important for
us to really first and foremost know who
God is Not Who We Are you know people
say you gotta know who you’re who you
are that’s the beginning of knowledge no
it’s knowing who the Lord is the god who
loves us and in finding him we find
ourselves like the Bible says as Jesus
is so are we in this world when we look
at the wealthiest man in the Bible
Solomon amen we find that when he was a
young man he had a big pair of shoes to
fill his father David had passed on and
uh God appeared to him in his dream and
God said ask what I shall give you and
this is what Solomon said give to your
servant and understanding heart to judge
your people that I may discern between
Good and Evil
for who is able to judge these great
people of yours the speech plays the
Lord that Solomon had asked this thing
the speech pleased the Lord this remark
here tells us that God is pleased with
people asking wisdom from him amen the
Lord is the same yesterday today and
forever and that speech will still
please him today when you ask God for
wisdom the Bible says if any of you lack
wisdom
us of God I think a lot of people don’t
ask of God because they don’t see
themselves lacking wisdom they think
they know I know I know I know what to
do I know I know leave me alone but the
Bible says that those who like wisdom
they will ask God for it amen and the
Bible says God will give it with no
doubt don’t let there be no doubt that
God will give it he goes on to say that
but let him ask in faith nothing
wavering for he that waverif is like a
wave of the sea driven with the wind and
toss in the context of if any of you ask
God for wisdom God will definitely give
it don’t doubt it amen this one prayer
he will answer and what does wisdom give
you God’s wisdom amen not the wisdom of
the world the Bible is very clear in
James he says there’s a wisdom from
above and there’s a wisdom that is
sensual that is uh that is uh fleshly
but the Bible says the wisdom from above
is pure Peaceable gentle easy to being
treated this is the wisdom from God and
it’s a wisdom that gives success in your
life in every area of your life the
Bible says in Proverbs chapter 3 it
talks about wisdom having two hands so
wisdom here personally fight as a woman
with two hands and it says Length of
days is in her right hand in her left
hand reaches an honor notice right hand
is always the the hand of prominence
most people use their right hand okay so
a length of this is in her right hand
that’s a priority would you agree that
Health wholeness amen peace and
Longevity it’s a priority amen not not
riches riches is in a left hand but
notice what he gives but wisdom gives in
the right hand uh Length of days in her
left hand our reaches and honor her ways
are ways of pleasantness
ways of pleasure in Hebrew which means
it is uh pleasurable and all her paths
are peace Shalom so first of all wisdom
gives you Length of days that is Health
then after that it gives you riches it
gives you honor esteem amen the ways of
the ways of pleasure so it gives you
pleasure and all her paths are Shalom he
gives you Shalom peace praise the Lord
it comes by embracing wisdom just like
it goes on to say later on Embrace
wisdom and we Embrace wisdom what
happened when you embrace your wife her
both her hands are behind you supporting
you right amen so you have all the
blessings of the hand but you don’t go
for riches on one hand or for the health
on the other hand you go for wisdom the
wisdom of God and the Bible says that
the law is so pleased with the wisdom uh
with the wisdom requests of Solomon that
God gave him and God says I’ll give you
what you didn’t ask for
God said to him because you have asked
this thing and have not asked long life
for yourself nor have us reaches for
yourself nor have asked the life of your
enemies but you have asked for yourself
understanding to discern Justice God
says behold I have done according to
your word see I have given you a wise
and understanding heart so that there
has not been anyone like you before
before you nor shall any like you arise
after you and I’ve also given you what
you have not asked both riches and honor
can you see that it’s like Proverbs
chapter 3 we write just now reaches an
honor in in the left hand amen so God
says I’ve given you what you have not
asked both riches and honor which come
to wisdom so that there shall not be
anyone like you among the Kings all your
days
so if you walk in my ways to keep my
statutes and my Commandments as your
father David walk then I will lengthen
your days now notice this one comes with
a a uh Proviso okay it comes with a
condition notice we have established
that God says I’ll I’ll give you what
you have not asked he actually asked for
wisdom he didn’t ask for riches and
honor but with wisdom come reaches and
honor so God says I have given
all right I’ve given what both riches
and honor that’s the left hand right
that’s the left hand we write just now
but notice the right hand has not been
given yet God says I have given you so
riches and honor has been given that
same night that uh when God appeared to
him in the dream amen and God asked what
I shall give you that same night he
asked God for wisdom God gave him
already riches and honor amen that was
the beginning of it praise God but
notice that God did not give him the
right hand yet the right hand comes with
a requirement amen a condition so if you
walk in my waist to keep my statutes and
my Commandments as your father David
walked then I will lengthen your days
notice the length of this comes health
and length of days comes with the right
hand unfortunately we know that Solomon
didn’t live long Solomon actually began
well he prospered and became the
wealthiest man not just King the
wealthiest man in history now if you
look at his wealth in terms of today’s
assessment he’ll be the first trillion
heir
in history
okay because all the uh measures and the
amount and all that’s specifically
mentioned in the Bible that came into
his kingdom okay he’ll be the first
trillion air now he had reaches an honor
but he didn’t leave a a long life notice
why because he deviated from God’s
Commandments he deviated from God’s word
and God says that if you keep my
Commandments I’ll lengthen your day so
that came with a condition amen if you
keep my Commandments which Solomon did
not later on he married many many wives
many uh foreign wives and with the wives
came all their their Idols in the
exhaust and and Bible says the heart of
uh Solomon remember Solomon actually
asked God give me an understanding heart
by the way in the Hebrew the word
understanding heart is actually a
hearing heart that heart let on his
wives because of his love for his wives
all his foreign wives the wives turned
his heart away from god notice that’s
where all starts his blessing all start
with his heart amen he asked God for
this therefore give to your servant and
understanding heart that word
understanding is the word hearing
hearing heart Amen to judge your people
that are made designed between good and
evil so he actually asked God for wisdom
but wisdom in the sense that and
understanding our hearing heart the
Hebrew word shama is used here a sharing
heart even in the Septuagint the Greek
version of this verse it says uh the
word there is actually hearing hearing
amen so that’s what a Solomon deviated
from and later on in his life and he
actually started worshiping Idols
started to move away from worshiping God
the true God you got up Abraham Isaac
and Jacob and he moved away that tells
us something people that wisdom is a
person
and is our Lord Jesus Christ if you look
at First Corinthians 1 30 the Bible
tells us of him are you in Christ Jesus
who of God is made unto us wisdom and
righteousness and sanctification that’s
Holiness and Redemption
of him means it is not of your doing or
your works of him means it is of God’s
doing that you are in Christ Jesus and
Christ Jesus is made unto you unto us
all unto you he can say Christ has made
unto me wisdom amen before I counsel
someone I always uh you know just say
this under my breath I make a confession
of Faith Christ is made unto me wisdom
Christ is my wisdom just like I said
Jesus is my righteousness amen Jesus is
my wisdom so that’s what Solomon did
um um later on his life he rebelled
against God how by deviating away from
the Lord and the Lord is his wisdom so
wisdom is not something that is always
in your head in your heart and it’s
there forever no you can lose that
wisdom why because wisdom is a person
when you turn away from the person of
the Lord amen you turn away from wisdom
something that’s very shocking for me to
see how Solomon you know so wise and the
Bible says he was wiser
then all the wise men of the East and
God gave Solomon wisdom and exceedingly
great understanding and lushness of
heart like the sand on the seashore
and then Solomon’s wisdom excelled the
wisdom of all the men of the East and
all the wisdom of Egypt for he was wiser
than all men than Ethan the astral
height and Haman and alcohol and Darda
if you study these people most of them
are the people during the time of his
father David and they were the wisest
man then in fact they were all in
worship Temple worship amen you’ll find
Psalms by Ethan the Ezra height Haman
also was a worship leader and a cow
called which means the dance and all
these people were the wise men of
Solomon’s day and his Fame was in all
the surrounding Nations see the Bible
says he spoke 3 000 Proverbs and his
songs were 1005. imagine you’re a you’re
a songwriter and you have written 1005
songs amen so his wisdom is uh manifold
it is Diversified in many many areas
amen when God gives you wisdom it’s not
just to make money
amen though riches and honor has been
promised by God by the way it reaches
and honor are things that God does not
want us to have he will not be giving it
to Solomon he won’t be saying that in
the left hand of wisdom our riches and
honor okay just a Sidetrack a little bit
to talk about you know how people can
preach and share that riches would
destroy you it’s true friend if your
ambition in life is just to be rich
you’ll be pierced through with many
Sorrows the Bible says that amen we
don’t have an ambition to be rich in
this area of being being Hasty to be
rich or wanting to be rich as your
ambition in life that reaches the area
just one area money but God want to give
you riches and honor includes money as
well amen but in every area of your life
you are prospering your relationships
with your spouse with your children with
everyone around you amen praise the Lord
and that’s God’s desire for all of us
that’s why he put all this
um all this wisdom into Solomon amen the
Solomon can put them all in the Book of
Proverbs and the Book of Proverbs is
divided into 31 chapters why
well I believe that you know God wants
us to hear
um for that particular day it is uh the
fifth of November let’s say the 5th of
December or the 10th of December right
we can actually go to
um the the 10th chapter and start
reading on the 10th chapter and you’ll
find that every month that that 10th day
the 10th chapter will speak differently
to you
all the verses there you you look for
that verse that that sort of leap out at
you the verse is sort of sort of arrests
you amen and say look at me study me
that’s the verse for you for that day it
lights up it’s like the oremen to meme
of the priests in the temple the the
word that lights up that’s the word of
God’s direction God’s wisdom amen so he
studied uh the corresponding day in 31
days in a given month all right most
months have 31 days and if not you just
read twice amen or you can read more if
you want amen but particularly if you do
that I believe God designed it for
Modern Men who live in 31 days in a
month amen for them to study and find
wisdom for that particular every day you
can find wisdom for that specific day
praise God you can share your children
these truths as well and uh just read to
them the particular chapter and ask them
all right I’m gonna read this chapter to
you that’s what I did with Justin as
well and then you’re going to tell me
which one speaks to you is very
interesting exercise amen you’ll find
that later on he’ll tell me that one
speaks to me yeah this one speaks to me
I find this one speaks to me yeah ask
him why does it speak to you amen you’ll
find that the same chapter next month
will speak differently amen different
verse will speak to you so is it amazing
that God has ordained this way for us
and another way you receive wisdom is by
meditating on God’s word
amen of the word that you receive When
You Reach like for example you’re
hearing this sermon right now take what
speaks to you that Patriot expect and
meditate on it take the verse that
speaks to you amen that that sort of
lights up to you and meditate on that
verse memorize that verse and start to
meditate on it you know Solomon asked
God for wisdom and uh for a hearing
heart as well amen and also he says that
I made discern that’s not a river of
wisdom there are many rivers that’s that
in the Hebrew there’s the word hakam for
wisdom and sometimes uh in the English
Bible they don’t differentiate all right
they’ll say wisdom for quite a few
things but the main word for wisdom is
hakam but there’s not a river of wisdom
from God called uh Bin and then there’s
also Mada and then there’s also
mother is the same uh there’s there’s uh
there’s alsocial amen if you look at
what uh Solomon asked God he asked God
for an understanding heart to judge your
people and to work down there judge your
people all right is that it’s a good
judgment in other words it’s like story
of the two mothers that came claiming
that the baby is is hers right and he
wants to arrive at the righteous
decision amen and and really uh uh a
gift of the mother the rightful mother
that child so this is how he judges his
people not not in his negative sense to
condemn people okay but he hasn’t got
for a for a hearing heart to judge your
people no this is unselfish in fact
early on he says to God if you uh read
the first part in his prayer he says
that I I’m like a child
at that time he was a young man but yet
he says I’m like a child I do not know
how to come in or how to go out you see
God gives wisdom to people who are
humble not people who are proud in fact
you never ask God for wisdom you don’t
even want to read The Book of Proverbs
if you think that I can do it
I’ve got it under control
all right I I don’t have to read The
Book of Proverbs I don’t have to listen
to anointed sermons I don’t have to ask
God for wisdom it takes humble people to
ask God for wisdom as for me every day I
need the wisdom of God every day amen I
need God to give me a supply mean the
understanding and the knowledge and the
know-how amen after all these years that
I’ve lived amen I still feel like I’m a
child when it comes to the things of God
when it comes to even preaching and
teaching and all that I still ask God
for wisdom and I’m so desperate amen
when I ask God there’s a sense of I
really need because if God doesn’t speak
to me God doesn’t give me his wisdom
what can I give you
amen so whatever area of feel or
occupation you’re in or Ministry that
you’re in ask God for wisdom God has a
wisdom for success in that area
now notice the Bible says that the
speech please the Lord that Solomon had
asked this thing if you keep on reading
this is the very first thing that
Solomon did it’s a sign that he has
received wisdom all right in verse 15
then Solomon awoke and indeed it had
been a dream and it came to Jerusalem
and stood before the Ark of the Covenant
of the Lord notice the very first thing
he did was stand before the Ark of the
child of the Lord he offered up burnt
offerings offered peace offerings and
made a feast for all his servants notice
the very first thing right that he did
when he woke up after he has received
wisdom from God after he has received a
hearing heart amen the very first thing
was to seek God’s presence to seek the
Lord Jesus Christ and that’s why wise
men will always seek him just like the
wise men from the East came to seek the
baby Jesus today wise men were still
sick Jesus amen are you seeking the Lord
amen especially seeking the Lord for
wisdom amen so the very first sign that
someone has received wisdom is that he
cherished the person of our Lord Jesus
Christ he valued the the presence of our
Lord Jesus and he will come to the Lord
Jesus anyone coming to the Lord Jesus is
a sign that he has received wisdom amen
so we know that the act of the Covenant
is a picture of our Lord Jesus Christ
right I’ve said before that the even the
structure and that furniture the being
overlaid with gold that’s his deity
because the goal is always a symbol a
type of deity Divinity and then the it
overlays the wood acacia wood which is
Incorruptible wood that is his Humanity
then we have The Mercy Seat that’s the
work of Jesus on the cross where the
blood is sprinkled and God says when I
see the blood I will pass over you right
and and God says there I’ll meet with
you there I’ll talk with you where above
the mercy seat and that’s the holiest
place so that that place that is the
holy holiest place of all that’s where
the ark is placed in the holy of holies
the holiest place of all the greatest
Holiness right at the heart of Holiness
is Mercy amen so Grace is the greatest
Holiness sermon you can ever preach
friend because Mercy Seat is found where
directly in the center of the holy of
holies the holy years of all and it is
the work of our Lord Jesus Christ at the
cross amen so the goal and the wood
speaks of his deity and his Humanity the
mercy seats speaks of his work at
Calvary amen and the blood is shed on
The Mercy Seat and that’s where God says
our commune with you and I’ll talk with
you praise God so a sign that someone
has received wisdom the very first thing
is that he was seek the Lord’s presence
amen so right after he received wisdom
he sought Jesus Christ Our Lord Jesus
amen which is the Ark of the Covenant is
a type of the realities are Lord Jesus
so the sign today that someone has
received wisdom is that he’s always
focused on Jesus and he comes to Jesus
with every need amen and he always talks
about Jesus praise the Lord that’s a
sign that someone has received wisdom
amen praise the Lord that’s how you
gauge it number two
another sign that someone has received
wisdom is that he becomes even more
humble you know in this chapter this
chapter three when he asked God for
wisdom it’s in chapter three but notice
what happens in chapter four I used to
read chapter four and I didn’t
understand why all of a sudden it became
like uh chapter 3 was uh kind of like uh
interesting to read how a young man you
know had a dream from God and all that
but uh in chapter four it was more
administrative notice chapter four The
the very next chapter it says so King
Solomon was King over all Israel
and these were his officials Azariah the
son of zedok the priest Ali Horath and
ahiya the sons of shisha scribes
Jehoshaphat the son of ahilu the
recorder banaya the son of jehoiada over
the Army zedok and abiata the priests
Azaria the son of Nathan over the
offices zabut the son of Nathan the
priest and the King’s friend and ahisha
over the household and adoniram the son
of over the labor force the reason took
time to read all this is that you can
sense like it’s just like you know at on
a superficial reading it shows like you
know Administration who is in charge of
what all right who is placed over which
department in his kingdom
but there is a reason and a purpose for
all this all right nothing is without
significance in the word of God every
Nuance every turn every chapter every
word
has a meaning
amen it will seek God for the wisdom of
it so I used to read this and think why
is all of a sudden God talk about
Administration and all that no God is
telling me I’m still continuing what
happens to a man after he receives
wisdom first of all he values the person
of my son
number two he becomes humble and he
surrounds himself with people that he
can tap into their advice into their
counsel into their wisdom and that’s why
it says here and this were his officials
verse two Azariah the son of zedok the
priest so
right after he received wisdom he begins
to value and prioritize the person of
our Lord Jesus Christ amen worshiping
him as Central in his life
number two
result of receiving wisdom is that he
became humble now we say just now we
showed you that Solomon’s wisdom
excelled the wisdom of all the men of
the East and all the wisdom of Egypt
then he goes on to say he was why is it
an all man then Ethan and all the rest
these are the wisest men at that time
during the time of his father David
especially and yet the Bible says he was
wiser than all men
so we see that Solomon’s wisdom the
wisdom that God gave him Excel the
wisdom of all the men of the East so you
can think of all the famous men in
history from the East the wisest men at
that time and the Bible says Solomon’s
wisdom Excel demo
all the wisdom of Egypt Egypt being a
type of the world all the wisdom you can
find in this world today Solomon’s
wisdom which is wisdom of God given to
him excels them all he was wiser than
all men
amen and all this man here now is
refrained by name to people who are the
wisest man during the time of his father
David amen and yet he excelled them all
so this wisdom is is uh preeminent it’s
it’s uh Superior
against all the wisdom he can find in
the world and anyone else as wise so
friend ask God for wisdom wisdom is not
intellect it can involve intellect and
many times it does but the wisdom is a
wisdom from God it comes as a flow in
fact you will find the holy spirit is
involved when you are filled with the
spirit you are filled with wisdom and
here you find that Solomon’s wisdom
excelled them all yet when he receives
wisdom from God the very next chapter
tells us he surrounded himself
just think of it here surrounded himself
with people who would give him advice
despite people in positions to give him
advice the very first person is Azariah
the priest and why why would he need a
priest I mean doesn’t he have direct
contact with God after all God appeared
to him in a dream directly
God appeared to him God spoke to him
directly why would he need a priest and
yet he was humble now this speaks to me
today that all of us need a a pastor we
need leaders pastors or you know care
leaders people who are we we esteem and
respect as people who heal God Amen not
that they are in a position of authority
over us no but it was you know feeding
us a position of responsibility of Grace
over us amen as they hear from God
translating our life and whatever they
need to affirm or even correct or warn
in our lives is because it is a
direction from the Lord and we trust
them especially in the ability to hear
God and that’s why they are in our lives
amen but many times you find that when
people think that they are wise they are
smart they don’t ask
um you know any of their leaders for
advice amen they they just you know run
rough shot into the situation and only
to find that uh being Hasty of spirit
like the book of prophets tells us
is to exalt Folly of the exalt
foolishness don’t be Hasty take your
time especially in the major decisions
of Life what to embark on this financial
uh plan that someone gave you to for you
to invest in is it really is it really
good is it really from God and many
times you look at your your leaders
okay and you start thinking well what do
they know about financial Acumen you
know what what you know about financial
intelligence and they’re not in this
field and but then they’re in a field
that covers all this they’re in the
field of hearing God Amen and God has a
work to say about all these areas amen
his wisdom surpass all these people in
all these areas amen they can confirm
even they’re not knowledgeable about
that area I see I’ve seen it time and
time again as they seek the Lord they
they receive from the Lord the word
that’s needed for that situation
personally I find that and I say this to
the glory of God I find that many times
I’m not knowledgeable I’m not uh
experienced in some of the areas that
people from to me with uh for Council
for help in the area of their uh concern
but it’s an expertise it’s a skill uh a
skill set that I don’t possess myself
but then God gives me a word and that
word is what sustains them that word is
what brings them out friend you need to
have spiritual leaders around you care
leaders or sell group leaders or and
they they function as people who hear
God for you and even if they don’t have
the word right now there’s no need to
rush into something every time someone
tells you to rush into something make
that decision right now sign on that
dotted line you know and and uh there’s
a there’s a push to do something just
stop for a while and tell yourself
here that is Hasty of spirit exalts
foolishness exalts Folly amen it’s never
God’s way the Bible says hey that
believer shall not make taste amen relax
amen breathe
amen take your time to consult the
people that love you that God has
surrounded you with
ask them to hear God ask them to pray
about this especially your spouse amen
there are people who are The Undertaker
Financial Venture payment or investment
or whatever without even Consulting
their wife and I know of cases like this
in fact a lot of marriage failures have
come especially in the area of finances
not handled properly and
they don’t they don’t tell their wife
about using their their money their
money is not his money it’s their money
okay to invest in something that they
feel their wife have no knowledge about
and I always like to say that men are
like that you know sometimes they will
go to a a financial conference to listen
to advice
all right that uh and they pay for it
like like uh 200 for the conference or
whatever it is and they pay for it just
to hear the same advice for free at home
from their wives amen and your wives uh
they might not know everything about
your finances financial side of things
and all that but they have this uh
intuition God has given women this
special gift of intuition amen and
that’s where God speaks to us
that’s where they are sensitive and they
can confirm something that God is
speaking into your spirit amen that’s
why uh Eve was hanging around the the
tree of knowledge of Good and Evil
because she was intuitive and the devil
knew that and the devil started speaking
to her of course she heard the wrong
voice and she obeyed the wrong voice but
the thing is this nonetheless doesn’t
change the fact that the devil knew who
to approach amen because of the
intuition of that woman that God has
given her so just check with your wife
make sure she has a peace before you do
anything no one day and night we have
this agreement if she doesn’t feel feel
the peace I won’t do it even like my my
decision to go without salary right from
the church was something I had to bounce
off her and have her pray amen but uh
until she comes back to me and and tell
me she’s okay with it all right then we
are in agreement I will not embark on it
right we must be in agreement the Bible
says how can two walk together except
they’ll be a great so like I said there
are guys who you know they just want to
get into this funny Financial investment
thing using their money right their
wife’s money as well okay and then later
on you know just to come up with um with
with all this uh coming back on them
um with no profit you know and and they
have lost thousands of dollars and and
uh then they explain to their wife and
still there’s this hastiness to be rich
you know always looking for the next fat
that comes along and friend the Bible
tells you that if you are Hasty to be
rich you do not know that poverty is on
its way to you that’s what the Bible
says the man who is Hasty to be rich he
has an evil eye and does not considered
poverty is coming all right property
will come so just be just be aware of
this God doesn’t want us to be Hasty to
be rich
or Hasty just in life in anything in
decision making all right take your time
take your time and hear the the voice of
God he said God speaks to me direct
friend I just established that from
Roman stand that even the faith that
comes by hearing is a hearing through
the voice of a Preacher the word of God
through the voice of a Preacher amen how
shall they hear without a preacher but
we say we can hear without a preacher
God speaks to me direct well not
according to the Bible the Bible says
how shall they hear without a preacher
okay when when we know God can speak to
anybody and at times he does all right
but it’s the exception and not the rule
the rule is that he speaks to you
clearly to the voice of your preacher
amen and many times it confirms what you
have already in your spirit because you
hear God but the thing is this God God
is like God gives you
um a sense on the inside that is to be
confirmed
and God Wants You humble God wants you
teachable he doesn’t want Pride to come
in so he will give you a sensing uh
intuitive uh feel inside but he knows
that you’ll be looking for confirmation
and God wants to confirm to you the
intuition to the voice of people that
are number one his people amen who have
the Holy Spirit in them and who love you
who have been placed in a position of
responsibility over you okay so check
with that and let’s continue reading
that portion and it says uh he also
appointed alioreth and ahija the sons of
shisha Stripes teachers
now he wrote a thousand and five songs
all right he he has he has many Proverbs
and Bible says thousands and why would a
man like that need scribes and a scribe
in those days but if you keep on reading
it says Jehoshaphat as well the recorder
why do you need a recorder scribes and
Recorders in those days they they write
down events that happen so later on they
can tell the king and remind the king
especially in his later years or what
transpired what happened we learned a
lot from history
okay unfortunately some things that
people learn from history they learn
from history
that they learn nothing from history
okay when history is actually there to
tell you going by this route has proven
fatal in times past okay so instead of
that we don’t learn from history just
remember histories is made of his story
and then go to the right one and you
you’ll find wisdom just in that
particular hour of need you need a
specific Direction God can speak to you
amen we have some sensing in your heart
that God is speaking to you confirm it
with someone that you trust amen someone
who is filled with God’s spirit as well
because if you have the Holy Spirit they
also have the Holy Spirit and together
you can come and pray and ask the Lord
and then you have a confirmation
especially in the areas of a major you
know decisions of life amen make sure
that you hear God for it all right
Jehoshaphat the recorder again the
recorder in those days today we have we
have uh recordings right we record down
and all my sermons like I said just now
uh I speak for myself because I know
myself best amen all my sermons on Jose
Prince app is all available down to the
years amen thousands of sermons is
available so why because there was a
recorder amen it has been recorded in
those days they record manually amen the
word of God the Book of Proverbs
so he has a recorder amen again the
scribes and Recorders is to remind him
but why why did it reminder I mean he
has the most brilliant mind God has
given him wisdom his memory is near
Perfect Memory why would he need someone
to remind him and that’s a sign that
someone has received wisdom amen they
surround themselves with advices they
surround themselves with people the
priests amen they surround themselves
with recorders to remind him you don’t
take for granted all these things just
because you have received the wisdom of
God in fact all this demonstrates that
you have received God’s wisdom amen
praise the Lord and not only that banaya
the son of Yehuda over the Army right
the priest you can also say that why why
be concerned about areas of Warfare when
God has given me peace in my in my
kingdom in fact the Bible says uh
Solomon never went to war
during his Reign it was peaceful it was
a golden era of Israel
all right and for the Kingdom so he
never went to war yet you find that he
appointed banaya over the Army why
that’s wisdom amen during times of Peace
when you have you have an army amen
that’s a guarantee for your outward
peace amen is a sign to all the nations
around the world not to attack amen and
banaya we know from other places in the
Bible that this is a mighty warrior of
God especially during the time of David
and zero and the priests again this
plural now just now he had a priest
which is the pastor right and uh now he
has preached all the spiritual uh
overseers the spiritual people that God
has placed in his life so friend
a sign that you receive wisdom from God
is that you surround yourself with
people who can speak into your life and
sometimes it is corrective sometimes
when they speak to you right it’s not
pleasant
for example from The Book of Proverbs it
says poverty and shame will come to him
who disdains correction
but he who regards a rebuke will be
honored
you know today we have a generation of
people uh don’t correct me don’t tell me
what I did wrong you know I I don’t want
to hear it and I know what to do in fact
uh the younger they are the more they
know what to do you know our children
even especially and and they they
believe they know what to do and and
increase us because we look at them and
we we know that there’s a better way of
doing that there’s a better way of doing
this but yet they they they want to go
on their own way and usually they fall
flat on their face it’s the same thing
even for adults many times you know the
rebuke comes and the Bible says open
review is better than Secret Love from
Book of Proverbs again open review is
better than someone saying they love you
secretly oh God God wants you if you
love someone you see them going down the
wrong path correct them that is someone
who loves you amen someone is not up for
your money someone is not just out to to
benefit themselves they care for you
surround yourself people like that and
when they see you going on the wrong
path they’ll tell you look bro I love
you enough to tell you this is not the
way to go it’s not the way to do it amen
and time and time again we see in our
counseling and all that
um uh families
break down because of of the father you
know all of a sudden going on the wrong
path amen it might start with a little
flirtation and then later on became an
affair all because no one came in when
they saw the thing happening they saw
them flirting you know no one came and
said bro what you’re doing you’re you’re
saying those kind of things to a girl
who is not even your your wife come on
what’s happening bro I can see it amen
you need people like this in church you
need people to tell you straight amen
because they love you amen or you see
someone you know and and they are
investing in a business that is not
moral that is not right and I’m speaking
from experience here I know of families
that break down because the husband want
to become rich quickly and they feel
like they are they’re in for a good deal
even though the wife says no the wife
doesn’t feel peaceful about it and the
Bible says clearly in the Book of
Proverbs he that gathers by labor shall
increase amen but no I don’t want to
label away I just want the easy way I
know I can make money by this whatever
fat that comes friend the Bible says
blessed is the man who walks not in the
Council of the ungodly notice the
ungodly they have counsel
it’s not that they don’t have counsel
but the Bible says what blessed is the
man who walks not in the counsel of the
ungodly they’ll tell you how to spend
your money how to invest your money but
if there are people who are not filled
with God’s spirit and you don’t bear
witness we all even even they are
Christians telling you do that but you
feel like there’s a check in your spirit
check with someone who doesn’t have a
private interests Amen in this Venture
ask someone who can be neutral who can
ask the Lord for you so that together
you can confirm that this is of God
someone you respect like we establish
just now all right surround yourself
people like this your Care Group Leaders
your pastors amen before you make a
major decision let’s play one that
involves a lot of money or change of
location or change of career amen it’s
important you listen and listen to the
wisdom of God in them amen but friend
don’t walk in the Council of the ungodly
and the Bible says instead Walk In The
Word of God Amen if whether you find the
word of God you find the word of God
from the Bible you find the word of God
the Rama word the word in the in
your spirit in your heart to be
confirmed by all those that God has
placed in in responsibility over you in
shepherding over you amen praise the
Lord and the Bible says the result of
the same chapter that starts with uh
blessed is a man who walks not encounter
than Godly ends with whatever he doeth
shall prosper so don’t walk in the
council then Godly or meditate on God’s
word amen day and night and you will
prosper your life will not wither and
whatever you do prospers amen
so the wisdom that we’re talking about
is a wisdom from God my friend is a
wisdom from God remember Joseph the
Bible tells us that uh when Joseph was a
slave in Egypt and uh he was thrown into
prison because of false accusation and
in prison he he interpreted a buttless
dream and he reminded Butler when you
are released don’t forget to mention me
all right I’m still I’m still in prison
mentioned I I mentioned a good word
about me so that I can be released from
this place because I’m thrown here uh
because of a lie and um but that Butler
forgot uh Joseph but God never forgot
Joseph
praise the Lord and God will never
forget you amen so the Bible says at the
end of two full years
Pharaoh had a dream
and he had two dreams in one night the
first Dream he saw
um seven cows they were good looking and
and Plum fat cows healthy cows and uh
the Bible says that this house came out
of the river right and they were healthy
looking Plum then all of a sudden seven
other cows came out and they were ugly
and they were gaunt and they were so
scrawny and this this uh thin cronic
house ate up the seventh house
okay you know dreams usually is symbolic
and they don’t make natural sense okay
then he slept again and then uh he had
another dream and this time he dreamed
of seven years of corn of wheat right
um and and and from one one stock came
seven Hits and The Seven hits were Plum
right they were Plumbing it’s full of
wheat amen and full of Colonel so uh
that means it’s a healthy Harvest and
then he had uh he saw another seven uh
uh
ugly blighted withered
um hate seven hates of green they were
with it blasted by the East Wind the
Bible says and then this seven you know
uh with it
um hates Ada the plum hates
so he slept and he was thinking
when he woke up what is this dream all
about
and and again the butler that that
Joseph interpreted for uh was summoned
and when the butler was before Pharaoh
he says it’s my fault you know um not to
mention this earlier but there was a
young Hebrew and he he interpreted my
dream correctly he all came to pass so
they got Joseph at a prison and Joseph
had the dream and this what Joseph said
and the dream was repeated to Pharaoh
twice because the thing is established
by God and God will shortly bring it to
pass you know I have a special thing
that you know down through the years I
would dream sometimes not all my dreams
are of God most of them are not okay but
there have been times that God will give
me dreams and it was a Dream from God
usually it will happen twice
all right the dream was repeated the
Pharaoh twice Joseph said because the
thing is established by God and God will
shortly bring it to pass
now therefore let Pharaoh select a
Discerning and wise man and set him over
the land of Egypt do you remember that
uh Joseph earlier on in his life he had
dreams from God but he was not able to
interpret many of us in the place where
we feel like something significant about
a dream a prophecy or something that God
spoke to us but we are not able to
really interpret it or or you know make
sense of it in a way that we can
understand
so what what is happening here there’s a
difference even King Nebuchadnezzar the
most powerful Kingdom at that time right
the king of Babylon he had a dream from
God but he was not able to interpret he
had to have
um Daniel come in to interpret the dream
he had to have God’s men to come in to
interpret the dream so the ability to
interpret is something from God uniquely
from God to dream a dream can be for any
man and they don’t have to be filled
with God’s spirit they can just be you
know having that dream and and uh just
dream but they’re not able to interpret
so there’s a difference at one time
Joseph was not able to interpret he had
a dream and he was not able to interpret
it and uh he just told his brothers I
saw you all bowing before me and all
that but he was not able to interpret it
okay but later on he was able to
interpret dreams what was the difference
the difference was this
the ability to interpret came after he
said no to uh Potiphar’s wife with all
her seductions right he said no and
there’s something about this there’s
something about about about walking with
God and not sinning the Bible says for
example whoever commits adultery
destroys his soul all right his soul
here is not just uh your your life but
also it can mean life but also soul is
the realm of the mind and the emotions
the more you indulge in fleshly lusts
you’re into pawn and you’re into
adultery or whatever let me tell you
this your mind cannot think straight
you’re not able to make good decisions I
find many a times people were involved
in in fleshly lust they become more and
more
ignorant they become more and more
unintelligent they become in other words
stupid
okay the Bible says stupid to do all
these things whoever does these things
right destroys his soul so his soul was
okay but he destroys it so the ability
notice the ability to interpret any man
can have a dream from God God can give a
man a dream even though he’s not a
Believer and yet the ability to
interpret it is only for those who will
walk with God Amen so we find that
Joseph said no to the fleshly lust amen
and after that he was able to interpret
even though he was in prison all right
that came to pass I thought there’s a
important note for us to take uh account
off and uh over here you find that
Joseph said about the two dreams they
are actually one dream and he told
pharaoh and that means uh the the fat
cows and all that and the fat uh ears of
the grain right signify seven years of
plenty all right there’ll be seven years
of plenty their Harvest will bring forth
plentifully there’ll be a bumper crop
and uh for seven years it’s gonna be
just a wave of the wave of Bumper Crop
after that will come right seven cows
crony and ugly and they will eat up the
cows in other words there’ll be seven
years of famine right now prophetically
speaking we are in a famine we’re in the
recession and it’s Global so we’re in a
famine
and God has wisdom for us here and the
Famine of Joseph was such that all the
seven years of plenty was forgotten but
then God never gives a dream without
giving us wisdom to apply it in our
lives and God gives wisdom to who in the
case of Nebuchadnezzar God did not give
it to him God gave it to his man Daniel
the man of the hour amen God gave him
wisdom and then he was able to interpret
the dream and prepare uh King
Nebuchadnezzar for what was to come okay
in fact even establishing his identity
as someone that God raised him for such
a time as the time that Daniel was in
and to know what he should do okay so
every time God gives a dream to an
unbeliever only a Believer a man who is
filled with God’s spirit is able to
interpret it and then that gives you a
connection there at the same time during
famine God’s people always rise to the
top and God will give them the wisdom
and the word for That season for that
time and this is what happened as well
when Joseph gave the interpretation to
Pharaoh Joseph says prepare yourself all
right let I don’t do this you know in a
way Joseph was not recommending himself
yet he was right he said let Pharaoh
select a Discerning and wise man and set
him over the land of Egypt let Pharaoh
do this and let him appoint officers
over the land to collect one-fifth
that’s 20 of the produce of the land of
Egypt in the seven plentiful years and
let them gather all the food of those
good years that are coming and store up
grain okay so here the wisdom was to
appoint a Discerning and wise man and
set him over the land of Egypt
now Joseph wasn’t saying I I recommend
myself for the job okay I volunteered no
he says let Pharaoh select a Discerning
and wise man and this what the Pharaoh
should do and sure that
during the seven years of plan t
set aside with every Harbor set aside 20
set aside 20 live off the rest amen sell
off the rest but store up the 20 percent
so this is what uh Joseph advised
pharaoh and look for a wise Discerning
man that you can put in charge of this
notice the pharaoh’s response
so the advice was good in the eyes of
pharaoh and in the eyes of all his
servants and Pharaoh said to his
servants can we find such a one as this
a man in home is the spirit of God
notice
a man who is wise and discerning here
Pharaoh says something quite prophetic
right we know that it’s prophetic
because he designed correctly he says
can we find such one as this pointing to
Joseph A man in home is a spirit of God
it goes to show that a Discerning and
wise man is a man in whom God’s spirit
dwells then Pharaoh said to Joseph
inasmuch as God has shown you all this
there is no one as Discerning and wise
as you
and it goes on to say you shall be over
my house and all my people shall be root
according to your word only in regard to
throne will I be greater than you
wow just in a short while Joseph who was
brought out from prison is now the most
powerful man
besides Pharaoh okay Pharaoh says only
in the throne will I be greater than you
so he’s he’s the number two man in the
whole realm of that Kingdom and and the
Kingdom of Egypt at that time was the
most powerful Kingdom at that time so
with the wisdom of God he rose through
the ranks and friend that’s where you
find God’s wisdom will Propel you into a
place of promotion I’m not talking about
uh for Pride you know for proud reasons
and all that would to God that we stop
praying just for a job and pray for a
position a position of influence that we
can impact many lives for our Lord Jesus
amen but just pray for a job don’t just
pray for you know something uh um that
you just want to live by but pray that
you may be an influence to many people
remember later on Joseph said to his
brothers that God sent me here to save
many people Amen to save many many lives
amen so he realized he has a greater
call than just fulfilling a job so
friend that that’s that’s you and I as
well but I want to point to you this
this thing in closing Joe have
recommended a man who is Discerning and
wise
that’s why he advised pharaoh now
Pharaoh says well who can who can find a
better man than you a man in home is
God’s spirit and a Discerning and wise
man and he became he was promoted this
word Discerning in the Hebrew is the
word bin
and the word wise is the word hakam
now why am i showing you this because
it’s very interesting that uh this word
bin was also used in the prayer of
Solomon that I may discern okay he says
bin it’s the same word in the Hebrew
that I may discern Discerning man wise
hakam hakam but also remember that uh
there is a a translation of the Old
Testament in Greek your Old Testament is
actually in Hebrew translation in Hebrew
and your New Testament is written in
Greek right but there’s Old Testament
um translation of Greek which is a
septogen version if you look at the
septogen version it says where it says a
Discerning and wise man the word been
for Discerning is the word fronimos
and the word hakam for wise is the word
sunnetos now fronimos is very
interesting because fronimos means
someone who is a sharp you’re right in
his discernment someone who is very
Discerning someone who is able to look
at the true nature of things and and
there’s a he’s a sagacious person a
person who is recognized for his
Prudence he’s able to see things before
it happens a man Discerning fronimos
very interesting word and hakam why is
hakam in the Hebrew the Greek is sunetto
sunettos means literally someone who is
able to take two and two to bring it
together to find the solution amen he’s
able to put two and two together and
conclude and this is what uh um Solomon
had also when the two women came to him
right claiming that the baby is is hers
he was able to put two things together
and come up with the right answer the
right mother actually so here this word
so is interesting because we find this
word this is an adjective form sunetos
but in its verb form is found here in
Joshua 1 8. in Joshua 1 8 again just
like uh Solomon
um Joshua is about to fill up a big pair
of shoes Moses has died and gone on to
be with the Lord and he’s gonna uh fill
up Moses shoes right I mean and he want
to be intimidated by that but the very
first instruction God gave him was this
this book the law will not depart from
his mouth because it don’t let this book
The Lord depart from your mouth what
does that mean marker on it memorize it
and matter on it you shall meditate in
it then like and the word meditate is
the word which is a matter of it
meditate you know when you are like
you’re talking to yourself you’re
thinking of you’re planning something
you talk to yourself right that is God’s
way of meditation and then meditation is
not emptying your mind meditation is
filling your mind with God’s word with
substance amen of power substance of
Grace amen you meditate on it day and
night I mean God says the result will be
for then you will make your way
prosperous and then you will have good
success now this word good success
in the Hebrew is the word sakhel
but in the Greek
it is the word tsunami no it sounds like
sunnetos because it’s the same word
actually sunitos is the adjective in the
Greek and tsunami is the verb so in
other words when you meditate on God’s
word day and night you you’ll make your
way prosperous and you will have good
success
amen how do you get tsunami just like uh
Joseph right he had tsunami he has
sunnetos amen putting two and two
together he’s able to discern he’s able
to put even literally the two dreams as
one and he’s able to see the answer that
comes from sunettos is it one of the
rivers of God’s wisdom that God releases
into your life when you have sunnetos
again is the adjective and the in the
verb form it is tsunami so here you have
tsunami good success very interesting
word sakhel uh because you find David
behave himself in a circle way when he
says David behaves behave himself wisely
all right that is sakal amen
praise the Lord amen so how do you have
tsunami in your life how do you have
this uh sex hell in your life how do you
have this this wisdom to put two and two
together
when others are not able to even
reconcile them and see the solution God
Says by meditating on his word day and
night another way of meditating of
course is also to hear sermons amen day
and night you know if the devil is
bombarding you with uh depressive
thoughts and dark thoughts and negative
thoughts uh all day long you’ll not be

I don’t care whether it’s because I ate
the wrong kind of food or too much
coffee or or the devil is trying to to
disturb my sleep but if I wake up in the
middle of night one of the things I
always do is always to meditate meditate
on God’s word oh I pray in the spirit I
don’t stay up there and worry about not
having enough sleep and what’s going to
happen in the day you know many times in
the in the in the dark moments of the
night you find your thoughts going
history you’ll find your thoughts
getting very dark
just like the darkness around you but
friend there’s a time you need to focus
on God’s word you need to make your mind
focus on God’s word and start muttering

mind to focus on something you know

around them and meditating on God’s word
will make you focus focus on that one
verse focus on the word in that verse
amen it will help your concentration
which is the key to success in life
which is sadly lacking in today’s
generation in today’s world because they
are so full uh in so many directions and
there’s a lot of distractions out there

wisdom of God in it it’s one of the
branches of God’s wisdom I want to close

Samson and Samson did this exploit the
spirit of God came on Samson another
occasion and he did this he did that all
right the word there for coming upon
Samson is the word the spirit of God
Salia on Samson later on the spirit of
God saliac unsolved also David when

Discerning someone who is able to flow
with what God is doing in this occasion
and remember that when God gives a dream
God gives a prophecy whatever is to
prosper his people amen there’s a verse
in the Bible in the book of Ezra it says
that God’s people prospered through the
prophesying of haggai and Zechariah so
these two prophets was race amen and
prophesying is today like hearing a
sermon being preached to you amen he
will prosper you he will Sally at you

prospered because the prophet sign of
the prophets in those days amen I pray

the Lord

yourself with people that are
like-minded people who have the Holy
Spirit just like you have and you will
bounce off them especially in the areas
of major decisions in your life amen
have them pray together with you like
the book of Acts the Bible says time and
time again being let go they went to
their own company being let go they went
to the always together together and they
prayed in one Accord notice the
togetherness togetherness in the early
church and that’s how they operate in
