Life: The Wisdom, The Tests, The Triumph




Wisdom is a requirement to making the most of life.
This is why the good Book informs us "wisdom is the principal thing, and with all our getting we should get understanding"

With life comes tests.
Life has a way of testing us.
Tests we must pass.
Tests we do not often understand when we are going through them.
Tests that make sense to us after we have passed them.
We pass them by going through them.
To go through them and emerge better after the tests is to overcome them.
It is through wisdom we overcome the tests of life.

These tests come in the form of challenges.
Challenges can come to us because we are wise.
Challenges can come to us because we are chosen.
Challenges can come to us because we are called to greater things.

King Solomon faced tests from the queen of Sheba.
The Queen of Sheba was famed to be a wealthy woman.
She was a legendary African monarch who had heard the fame of Solomon's wisdom and wealth.
Intrigued, she journeyed with an entourage of camels carrying lots of gifts to where king Solomon was; to see and confirm the legend of Solomon.

It's not only material rewards the queen of Sheba came with, she came with hard questions for the king.
The wisdom God put in Solomon answered all her questions satisfactorily.
She saw and found in the king and his kingdom more than she had heard, thought and imagined.

Wisdom always finds solutions.
Wisdom from God usually exceeds the thoughts and expectations of men.
Solomon triumphed over the hard questions of the queen of Sheba.
The queen of Sheba's hard questions represent life's questions, life's toughness, life's challenges.
Through wisdom we overcome, we triumph and we breakthrough!

When we pass the test, we move to the next level in life and in destiny.
Wisdom is a prerequisite in life.
Fortunately God is willing to give it to as many as ask Him for it.
There are things we are meant to discover as we journey through life.
There are things God wants us to find out through Him.

Life's journey requires making discoveries, these discoveries demand wisdom. We need wisdom for life's journey.

There will be situations confronting us in this world that may seem hard.

They are life's tough questions, they are life's difficult questions, they are life's hard questions.

Jesus faced a number of such questions while He walked the earth in human form. He knew challenging situations, He was also confronted directly with hard and tricky questions at times.

The Pharisees and Sadducees tried nailing Him with hard questions whenever the opportunity presented itself.

There were questions meant to corner Him, discredit Him, and embarrass Him which He scaled through with the wisdom of God.

These hard questions of life are not only the questions we may be asked by people who do not mean well for us, but they are also the challenges, difficulties, and storms we face in this world.

They stare at us, confront us, and are to be figured out. They are questions of life and require wisdom to answer/solve them.

They are not meant to break us, defeat us, overcome, or overwhelm us but they are meant to be overcome and solved.

They are necessary for us to rise to our next level.

They help bring out our strength and innate abilities and talents.

Wisdom finds solutions to life's issues.

Wisdom finds answers to life's puzzles.

Wisdom provides the answers to life's questions.

Wisdom enhances our lives and makes us a problem solver on the earth.

Jesus always had the right answer His rivals, critics, and detractors could not gainsay or resist.

King Solomon was tested by the Queen of Sheba with hard questions and Solomon answered her satisfactorily with wisdom beyond what she had heard of.

The tough questions of life are to test the wisdom of God within you.

They are opportunities to use your God-given wisdom.

You have wisdom within you if you are a follower of Jesus Christ.

Jesus has been made to us wisdom and righteousness.

Since you have wisdom within you, the world will present you with some difficult, hard, and tough 'questions'

These 'questions' come in the form of tough circumstances, hard situations, and issues that need to be sorted.

God wants to be glorified through us.

When we apply ourselves to life with divine wisdom we answer the world's questions with flying colors.

As Jesus had answers to life's questions as they came to Him, God wants us having answers too.

As Solomon the king had answers to all the Queen of Sheba's tough questions, so should you have answers to the questions of life that come to you.

The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of wisdom and He is with the believer.

The gift of wisdom is available through the Spirit.

Hell: the Presence, the Place, the Spirit

 Hell is a place, a presence and a spirit.

 As a place it is the location of eternal damnation.

As a presence it creates wrong realities in peoples lives.

As a spirit it is an evil hitman that wants you to lose an eternity with God.

Blessed To Do What You Do


It is a blessing to find what you are good at doing very well.
Not everyone discovers what they are good at.
So if you have found a skill, talent, or ability you've got and you're good at; consider it a blessing from God.
Finding what you are good at doing well is an aspect of self discovery.
It is also the beginning of success.

If you live in a part of the world where your skill, ability or talent is appreciated, that is another blessing.
There are loads of people who live in parts of the world where their talent, gift or skill is not valued.
Such environments are not where their success is.
Success is geographical.
There is a place where you should be.

If you come from a family where your gift, skill or talent is recognized and encouraged that is another blessing from the Lord.
Not everyone is from a loving family where they are given a chance, where their abilities are discovered, appreciated or directed.

If you live in a region or part of the world where there is a demand for your abilities, talents or gifts that is a blessing too.
Not everyone lives in parts of the world where what they do best will be paid for.
When you live in a part of the world where people are willing to pay for what you do well, you are blessed and your relevance will be guaranteed.

Your gifts, talents, skill and abilities are for God's glory, your profit, and the benefit of humanity.


Indeed it is the blessing of the Lord that makes rich and adds no sorrow to it!
The Lord wills that we are blessed without sorrow.
For this reason God will have people move around for the purpose of His plan and blessing.

Migration and immigration is seen in scriptures.
Migrating is part of Gods plan to strategically position His people.
It is part of God's plan on the earth and it will always be.
The patriarchs of the faith Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were immigrants at different times of their lives.
Joseph was sold by his brothers out of envy but it was part of God's grand plan for him to migrate to Egypt.
Rebecca journeyed from the city of Haran in Mesopotamia to join Isaac in Canaan to become his wife.
It was God's plan for her and for Isaac, she was an immigrant who made Canaan her new home.

God can direct you to travel out of your home country, away from the family and environment you have always known.
The Lord moves us into new environments and unfamiliar territories where our gifts, talents and abilities will be discovered, seen, nurtured, and used.
This is the Lord's blessing.

There are many sides to the Lord's blessing.
The Lord's blessing covers every aspect of our lives.
The Lord blesses us in many ways- through people who believe in us, stood by us, encouraged us, supported us and saw the ability in us.
The Lord blesses us by His guidance, direction and leading.
The Lord blesses us through divine orchestrations too.

When God blesses us with talents, gifts or skills He also orchestrates the scenario for that blessing to be used.
He orchestrates the platform for your ability to be seen.
Joseph was a dream specialist- he was a dreamer who God communicated with through dreams, he was a prophetic dream interpreter, and he was a solution provider.

God planned for Joseph to be born in a dispensation where having dreams was regarded as divine and sacred, when dream interpreters were needed and rulers needed wise solution providers.
The Lord also orchestrated his life, that he would stand before the Pharoah of Egypt at the time he did.

King Solomon was given wisdom by the Lord.
The Lord also orchestrated a scenario where Solomon's wisdom will be seen and revered- the situation brought before Solomon of two women claiming and fighting for the same baby.
By wisdom, Solomon judged rightly and his respect and reputation skyrocketed!

You need divine orchestrations in your life.
God is the one who orchestrates situations, circumstances and scenarios that will favor you, glorify Him and showcase what He has put in you.

The Lord wants you blessed to do what you do.
He wants you blessed to be a blessing.
Divine orchestrations are God's master strategies at work in human affairs.
Divine orchestrations are blessings from God.




Now that gift is being used, it didn't waste.

That potential is now harnessed, it wasn't buried.

You skill has been honed, your gift has been nurtured, and the Lord is giving you visibility.

It is the blessing, the blessing of the Lord.

It makes rich and adds no sorrow.

You feel on top of your world now.

It was God's blessing at work for you and in you all along.

Your gifts, talents, abilities, skills and graces are blessings!

May you not fail, may you not falter.

You are blessed to do what you do.
