15/02/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Wisdom and Understanding

 Text:
```Proverbs 4:7‭-‬9 AMP
The beginning of wisdom is: Get [skillful and godly] wisdom [it is preeminent]! And with all your acquiring, get understanding [actively seek spiritual discernment, mature comprehension, and logical interpretation]. Prize wisdom [and exalt her], and she will exalt you; She will honor you if you embrace her. She will place on your head a garland of grace; She will present you with a crown of beauty and glory.”```
 
COMMENTARY
Understanding is all encompassing. Understand your environment, understand the people around you. Understand every of their speech, why they made the speech and so on. It is with wisdom that we comprehend and have logical interpretation of every actions taken by people around us, be it our superiors or our subordinates. In the book of Judges Chapter 8, we saw the wisdom Gideon displayed in relating with the people of Ephraimites.

Navigating the route to and from success is full of danger, most times the dangers are from people who are not ready to lose seats of honor and relevance. The wisdom you need is the kind of wisdom called intellectual Wisdom. It is wisdom acquired by continuous learning. Studying books, people, things around and with cultivated habit of deeper meditation.

A popular Swedish Lecturer, author and behavioural expert, Thomas Erikson in one of his book titled "Surrounded by idiots", categorized human beings into four group namely: Dominant (D), Influencer(I), Steady (S), and Conscientious (C). This is called DISC model. Understanding people is very crucial in human relationship. Peaceful coexisting of husband and wife is a product of understanding. Bible is filled with Characters both good and bad, beautiful and ugly. Being a good student of the bible would give you directions on the kinds of human beings within your environment and how to deal with each person. Bible is a book of wisdom and very instrumental to business model and coaches.

Food for thought:
Foolish people lacks understanding. It takes wisdom to have understanding and form opinion._

Prayer:
```Lord give me strength to pursue intellectual Wisdom, grant me the grace to acquire it in Jesus name.```

 31/12/2023 *Christian WATCH Exposition* *Topic:* _Habit 1. Roaming around_  *Text:*  ```Job 2:1-2 AMP Job Loses His Health Again there was a day when the sons of God (angels) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan (adversary, accuser) also came among them to present himself before the Lord. The Lord said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Then Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming around on the earth and from walking around on it.”```  *COMMENTARY*  As children we grew up seeing Almanac painting of a dark human like image with tail, hons and horrible dentition being displayed on walls of our houses as Satan. Some of these almanac displayed Jesus and Satan having a soccer. Other Almanac can be a wrestling match between Satan and Jesus and things like that. Satan cannot be known by all those images. Satan is a spirit and manifest through human beings. Therefore in this study we shall look into the habits and manifestations of Satan. One of the ...

Topic: Habit 5. Distractions.   Text :  ```Job 2:1-2 AMP Job Loses His Health Again there was a day when the sons of God (angels) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan (adversary, accuser) also came among them to present himself before the Lord. The Lord said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Then Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming around on the earth and from walking around on it.”```   COMMENTARY   Uninvited yet attending, for what? Why is Satan always going to the gathering of the children of God? Presenting himself to the Lord is not his priority, he is chiefly looking for whom to distract. As children of God testifies of triumphing over evil with good, the children of the disobedience take pleasure in doing evil and testifies when they succeed in multiplying evil, especially when their intended distractions work out and a child of God compromise to follow evil. Have you wondered why believers compromise? It starts from this ki...

02/02/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Illegal Structures.   Text :  ```Jeremiah 1:7‭-‬10 NKJV But the Lord said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord. Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me: “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant.”```   COMMENTARY One of the foundational significant difference between Prophetic ministers and the rest of the people in the society is eyes. God gives ability to identify original architectural master plans to the Prophets. God give them ability to read and interpret geographical and geological map of families and individual persons lives. God's purpose and plans a...
