Psalms119:89 (NIV); Your word, Lord is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens.

The Word of God is not designed to function according to the times of the earth but according to the times of heaven. 

Just because the Bible has events that happened within the earthly time dispensation does not mean that the Word of God is not eternal.

This understanding ought to define your study of the Word. The Word may say, ‘In the years to come, God will reveal His mercy…’ 

One man will read this and understand that in the years to come, God will help him. But another will look at the same scripture and understand it with the mind of ‘now faith…’ 

When you understand the timelessness and eternal nature of the Word, the fullness of scripture ceases to be a future experience. Get into the Word and own its experiences in ‘now faith’.

GOLDEN NUGGET: 
Get into the Word and own its experiences in ‘now faith’.

PRAYER: Father, I thank you for this wisdom. I understand how the Word functions. I do not extend the manifestation of its experiences to the future but know that by faith, they are now. These experiences define my message and ministry in the earth. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Ecclesiastes 3:11 (KJV); He hath made everything beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.

Our theme scripture speaks of God beautifying things in “His time.” However, God understands time differently from the way men on the earth do. Time to the human is in series: past, present and future.

You are either living in the now moment, in the yesterday moment or in the future moment.

Because many people fit their moments of time in series, they assume that God is also subject to time series.

However, time in eternity are experiences. Every time you have an experience in the spirit, you have attained a certain place and that place is translated as time.

This is why Christianity is a life of experiences. Live a life of constant expectation, do not ignore the slightest impressions of the spirit.

FURTHER STUDY: Colossians 4:5, Acts 17:30-31

GOLDEN NUGGET:
Time in eternity equals to experiences.

PRAYER: My God, you have made me an eternal being who is not subject to the dictates of earthly time. The true understanding of my nature launches me in experiences of eternity because those inform my knowledge of time. This understanding teaches me to redeem and number my days. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Isaiah 50:4(KJV); The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned that, I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.

There is a difference between learning men and learned men. A learning man may know the “what” of scripture but the learned man knows the “hows” of scripture.

Our theme scripture qualifies this learned man as one who knows “how” to speak a word in season to him that is weary.

He not only knows what to speak but he knows how to speak what to speak in season to him that is weary.

It is one thing to know the many principles that account for Christian growth and maturity, it is another to know how these principles ought to be applied. A learned man always knows the hows.

However, the knowledge of the “hows” is not simply in the knowledge of method.

Knowing how means that you have the mind of God in the application of these principles.

As a learned man, you always apply the scriptures with the absolute understanding and revelation of the mind of God. Hallelujah!

GOLDEN NUGGET:
As a learned man, you always apply the scriptures with the absolute understanding and revelation of the mind of God.

PRAYER: Father, I thank you because I am learned. In everything that I do, I have a full understanding of your mind, intention and purpose. Every step I take reflects the wisdom of one who knows God in truth and in depth. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Apostle Grace Lubega

John 21:20-22 (KJV); Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee? Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do? Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? Follow thou me.

There are things in this life of the gospel that God does not expect us to inquire about, not because they are wrong in themselves but because they are not important for your purpose and course in life.

Understand that even though the scriptures speak of inquiring in the temple of God( Psalms 27:4), there are questions that are in the perfect will of God for your life and questions that are not.

Like the Apostle Paul says, there are things in the scriptures that are lawful yet do not edify (1 Corinthians 10:23). This was not with respect to actions only, but even the questions with which we go to the presence of God.

Christ made this point when in our theme scripture He asked Peter, “If he will tarry till I come, what is that to thee?”

The message in Christ’s question is to the effect that each one of us should be more mindful of our own course, race and fight. That should be your priority.

Like Paul at the end of his days, you should be able to say, “…I have finished my course…” (2 Timothy 4:7).

It is eternal life to know God and his son Jesus(John 17:3); eternity is worth investing in.

But that life is too precious for you to invest in it without a certain wisdom.

The absence of wisdom lies in the fact that there are certain things we might inquire of the Lord out of curiosity although they are not expedient for the life of the Christian.

Let your place of inquiry in His temple be defined by the things that align you to purpose and destiny.

FURTHER STUDY: 1 Corinthians 10:23, 2 Timothy 4:7

GOLDEN NUGGET:
Let your place of inquiry in His temple be defined by the things that align you to purpose and destiny.

PRAYER: Father, I thank you for this precious knowledge that gives me direction on how to inquire in your presence. I seek you for that which places me in the center of your perfect will. I know that by this wisdom, I will finish well. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
