wisdom of Christ

NUGGETS OF CHRIST
WISDOM GUIDED HIS DECISIONS

"For even his own brothers did not believe in him. Therefore Jesus told them, “My time is not yet here; for you any time will do. The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify that its works are evil. You go to the festival. I am not going up to this festival, because my time has not yet fully come.” After he had said this, he stayed in Galilee. However, after his brothers had left for the festival, he went also, not publicly, but in secret."  John 7

The Bible made a statement about our Lord Jesus  in Luke 2:52
"And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man."

The wisdom of God is demonstrated in the action of our Lord Jesus in John 7. 

He hid His plans and intentions from His brothers who did not believe in His ministry at that time.
Although many believe that blood is thicker than water. Our Lord Jesus chose to follow the Word and the leading of the Spirit instead of following His blood relatives request.

Thank God for families and friends, but divine wisdom dictates that we don't reveal everything to them especially those who did not have the same level of revelation we have.

Peter told Jesus, you must not die, God told Jesus, it is ordained in my plans for you to die.

Sometimes we have conflicts in what God told us and what our friends and friends tell us.
We must learn to put sentiment aside and follow the voice of the master.

Jesus told His brothers He was not going to the festival. Later  He went but did not go with His brothers rather He went secretly.

Again, l pray that we will run our destiny by divine wisdom in Jesus name. Amen.

Romans 8 reveals that the Holy Spirit can lead a man which is the Holy Spirit guiding and directing the activities, decisions and thoughts of the Man through the written and spoken Word. But when the Holy Spirit is leading a man, the man has the absolute ability to say No to the leading of the Holy Spirit and follow his own inclinations. But there is a higher dimension of  relationship with the Holy Spirit which is state of absolute surrender that is exemplified by the life of The LORD of Host Himself: Jesus Christ, The LORD and Saviour of the Earth..
