#WiseUp!

Wisdom is generally regarded as applied knowledge & good judgment. But this definition immediately implies a standard or a measuring unit for both knowledge and judgment.
Today's scripture taken from James is encouraging the reader who acknowledges deficiency in wisdom to ask God for it and he will be exhausted. But it is still James who tells us of two kind of wisdom in Chapter 3:13 - 18. Wisdom from above, coming from God and wisdom from below. This distinction is essential to note to answer the question on the standard presented above.
The wisdom God will grant whosoever will ask is the wisdom from above. Because God cannot identify with the wisdom from below. Proverb 9: 10 tell us that the prerequisite to obtaining the wisdom from above is the fear of the Lord.
So here you have it! You want to Wise Up in 2021? Fear (revere and worship) God and where you still are confused about certain things, ask Jehovah for light and you will be enlightened.
Selah!

LoveOneAnother!

love, agape love, unconditional, deliberate & pursuing type of love (embrace & acceptance of the other, while actively seeking their greatest good according to God's will for them) is the trademark of Jesus Christ.

To be a disciple means to model after or better to be a devoted student of a person with the intention to become exactly like them. A disciple is an imitator of the master or teacher.

So because love as defined above is the trademark of Jesus Christ. If we are his disciples we must walk in love too.

#HisNameis!

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father & Prince of Peace. Yes, and I call Him: My Lord and My God, Master (Adonaï), the precious Lamb of God, the King of kings and the Lord of lords, the Lion of Judah, the Eternal Word of God, the Lord of Life, the Mighty Conqueror, My Savior and Friend, My Redeemer, My Healer, My Prized Possession, My Rock and Tower of Refuge, My Protector and Defender, My Provider, the Lover of My Soul, My Great Shepherd, My provider, My Hero, Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of the Living God, the Resurrected of the third day, the Conqueror of Sin and Death, Jesus Christ, etc... this list can't be exhausted. Because of Him and Him alone, I am still standing. Life without Him after a year like this one is simply a living agony.
I wish you will make it a point to take His extended hand towards you from this day forward. He is the real reason for this season... don't miss your boat for eternity. Receive Him today as the free gift of The Father and your life will never be the same. What do you have to loose. Find a bible and read Romans 10: 5 - 13. When done, call on Jesus and receive His everlasting Peace.

#Messiahhascome!

#Messiahhascome - They came from the far east. They undertook a very long journey. They traveled with determination and great anticipation. They decoded the comic sign which announced the coming of the Savior of the world and the Lord of life...
This sign was a bright star which they followed diligently to the very doorstep of the house where Messiah was.
Having entered the house they saw... they bowed in worship and they offered gifts.
Now this is what God's presence does to us whenever we step before Him. We bow in worship and we offer our hearts, our lives, our time, our talents, our belongings, our resources, etc...
May you get to know the joy of offering everything you are and have to the Lord Jesus Christ as we remember his coming to earth to offer everything He is.
Amen!

#TheLawofChrist!

#TheLawofChrist - Here Paul is offering his closing remarks to the Galatians after addressing the doctrinal confusion that this church experienced from Judaism inviting them back to the observance of the law of Moses which was centered on personal performance in the keeping of God's moral law plus the tradition of the elders handed down over many generations.
On this specific verse he invites them, and us today, to bear each other's burden as the Law of Christ requires of us.
What is this law of Christ?
Walk in love! Love God and Love your Neighbor.
This is the law of Christ.
What burden is the community of believers required to share amongst themselves?
ALL BURDENS!
Starting with Spiritual Burden by praying for one another, adding Emotional Burden by sharing our emotional state and supporting each other emotionally where the need arises, and finally Physical Burden by lending a helping hand when needed and why not, sharing a meal together in joyful fellowship.
Take this to heart beloved and fulfill the LAW OF CHRIST.
Amen!

#Praying&Singing!

#Praying&Singing - James offers us Pastoral remedies to the lows and highs of life. This advice is very capital to help believers navigate safely and responsibly through life's both end of the emotional spectrum. Yes, both pain and pleasure left unchecked can lead to sin or even death.
Hence, to avoid the extremes of suicidal thoughts in our pain, we must pray! Likewise to avoid the extreme of compulsive addictive behaviors in our happy days, we must sing praises to God to keep us close to Him and away from the dangerous waters of secular hedonism.
