Scriptural UNDERSTANDING For Wisdom

Scriptural UNDERSTANDING For Wisdom: Get The UNDERSTANDING In ALL Your KNOWING!

People fail in life and godliness, not merely for not KNOWING, but for not UNDERSTANDING, the PURPOSE of a given to them. Hence,  I have always said, and will always say:

“UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU CLAIM TO KNOW OR TO HAVE KNOWN IN ANY MATTER OF LIFE AND GODLINESS, YOU ARE NOT BETTER THAN THE IGNORANT”

Having an idea is good, UNDERSTANDING your idea is another ball game. I have seen the assumed rich fall from the penthouse glory to be a beggar and have seen the one time poverty stricken rise to grace from grass. All because the assume rich just landed into wealth by a mere knowledge and zeal, without understanding what’s the take on and know-how to sustain the position; while the once poverty stricken took to knowledge know-how along with understanding of the journey, arrives there, lives to sustain it, in spite of all changes and challenges in weather conditions to the set matter.

Knowing your spouse is good, but if you don’t understand each other, there’s going to be a bomb explosion one day. So stride to both know and understand your spouse in your relationship day by day.

Being educated and informed  in a career or trade is good, but not understanding your career or trade will cause a problem to you and others probably one day. As the saying goes –

“A BAD WORKMAN QUARRELS WITH HIS TOOLS”

Being a Gospel Minister is a gracious privilege. But not understanding the etiquette of being a  Shepherd of looking well over God’s heritage will make you a hypocrite, arrogant and wolf in sheep clothing. Instead of being the chief servant you become the lordship over God’s heritage. And we know in God’s set plan, humility in His service breeds His exaltation. Mark 10:35-45; Hebrews 5:7-9; Philippians 2:1-11; James 4:6-7, 10; 1 Peter 5:5-6.

Being a Leadership and management in private, non-governmental or government or other public position of making decision is good, but if you lack the understanding for leadership and governance, you will destroy the people’s invested TIME, EFFORTS, MATERIAL & FINANCE under your watch.

More so, a lack of understanding geared through set principle, will cause you to always REACT, make excuses and blame others for your inadequacy and failure; It will cause you not to take RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY for your actions; and a lack of PURPOSEFUL UNDERSTANDING to achieving meaningful RESULTS.

UNDERSTANDING the PURPOSE of a thing, is the  needed enabling grace in order to achieve meaningfully and be fulfilled in any driven cause. A lack of ALL NEEDED understanding makes people live a life without meaningful PURPOSE and FULFILMENT for themselves and others.

WISDOM equals to KNOWLEDGE plus UNDERSTANDING. And it’s based on PRINCIPLE; it’s GOOD and PROFITABLE; it’s a DEFENCE and life GIVING to one’s LIFE ESSENCE.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Wisdom is GOOD with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun. 12 For wisdom is a DEFENCE, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom GIVETH life to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:11-12.

“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get WISDOM: and with ALL thy getting GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.
