Wisdom From Above

Wisdom From Above by Keith Cook

"Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy." James 3:13,17

News Event:  Nigeria Festival Team with Keith Cook October 17 - 25, 2012.

I do not know very many people that would say they do not want to be wise. The wisdom that we as Christians try to obtain is different than the world's wisdom. You see, the Bible tells us exactly how to be wise! It's hard at times to choose wisdom from above when the world's way is easier.

Wisdom From Above        Folly From Below

Pure                                    Done from wrong motives
Peaceable                           Always warring with others
Gentle                                Harsh
Willing to Yield                 Having to have your own way
Full of Mercy                     Merciless
Full of Good Fruits            Fruitless
Without Partiality              Judging Others
Without Hypocrisy            Being something you're not

Everyday we have a choice to make. We can choose the wisdom from above or the folly from below! Let's choose wisdom!

Daily Prayer Focus: Pray for God Given Wisdom to Rule in your heart. Pray for wisdom that is pure, peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, merciful, full of fruit, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.

On The Go Prayer Focus: GoTeam Missions Projects. Pray today for On The Go's GoTeams. GoTeams are teams of young people and adults ministering throughout the world who want to make an impact in another individual's life for Christ. This week Keith Cook will be ministering in Port Harcourt, Nigeria through nightly festivals and crusades, conferences, and churches. Pray for a bountiful harvest as Keith, Micheal Amamieye, and the Nigeria Festival Team minister this week through various outreach events.

Thank you for taking the time to pray for this important division of On The Go Ministries. For more information on any our ministries here at On The Go, you may send your questions to info@onthego.org.
