You must guard the windows of your life, that is, your eyes and ears, with all diligence. What you keep seeing and hearing will affect how you think, and that will eventually influence how you live.
As a believer, you must be wise not to number yourself among those who settle for less in life.
If you defend yourself against such an unbelieving person, he cannot understand you because he doesn’t think like you. So, if you shut up, it prevents you from giving him a basis to say evil things about you.
Wisdom is the force that directs how resources ought to be used to achieve maximum results. Without it, you’re in trouble. That is why anybody who invests in divine knowledge in Christ always improves his quality of life.
Of a truth, the words of a wise person don’t have noise attached to them. And because of that, it doesn’t sound so loud to the human inclination. The one who pays attention to their words will end up grasping the wisdom in it.
Don’t just pursue wisdom. Pray also for God to give you visibility in your area of influence – be it professional-wise or ministry-wise. It’ll help you reach more people you’ll never imagine.
Solomon gave simple advice to all young people in Ecclesiastes 11:9. He said that as a young person, just be happy and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth. Follow the ways of your heart and chase after what you see. But while doing all these things, know that God will bring you into judgment.
Learn how to demarcate every monetary resource that gets into your hands. Don’t spend everything or save everything. Invest some.
It’s not enough to know God says remember Him in your youthful days. You must walk by that revelation. But how? Simply by taking His Word seriously.
You don’t have to pray with the intention that God’s face will shine on you. Just commune with Him. The more you do it, the more Christ-like your life will be. And people will see real holiness in your life like never before, even though it’s scarce in this perverse generation.
Don’t commit it to people. If you commit it to them, shocks from disappointments can really harm you. Instead, commit it to God.
