 TAKE LESSON FROM GOD

I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.  Isaiah 48:17

Every student looks forward to success in his study, just as traders want profit in their sales, and everyone wants to prosper in life.  But all vocations starts with learning. Student must acquire knowedge and traders must learn the marketing and sales skills. Lesson must be taken, either formal or informal. But beyond the human knowledge, is the divine lesson centre where knowledge to succeed and profit is taught, and the teacher is God the Holy Spirit. But He is probably the most ignored and under-consulted teacher of all time.

All matters and pursuit of life are based on two things: Direction (decision-making) and profitability(prosperity). Life will often offer many options with unknown or uncertain end points. You need someone who not only sees the end from the beginning but also gives the power to make wealth. It is only God. What a privilege to be taught by God. He will teach you how to profit. He teaches you how to make the right career and business decisions. 

To enrol in the lessons from God for direction and profitabilty, you will need to agree to His terms and conditions. Beloved, you must be born again. Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Secondly, you must be open to hear from Him. Bible is your first reference book but not the only way God speaks. "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things..." (John 14:26). You need the Holy Spirit who will teach you the vast majority of what is not written in the Bible. Don't miss out any of His lessons, some of which are projected in practical life experiences. Thirdly, have faith in God (Hebrew 11:6). "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." (Proverbs 3:5-6). Before setting out this day, do not forget to ask Him to teach you the way to go. Obey Him when He teaches you.

Today’s Recite:  Behold, God is exalted by His power; who teaches like Him? - Job 36:22

Today’s Morning Prayers: My heavenly Father, I open up my heart to You this morning. Enrol me in Your divine lessons everyday. Teach me to profit. Lead me in the right path of life. Redirect me, in case I have derailed. Help me live a fulfilling life. For in Jesus name I pray. Amen!
