DON’T ENVY NOR BE INTIMIDATED BY THE WORLD 2
“Don’t follow after the wicked ones or be jealous of their wealth. Don’t think for a moment they’re better off than you.”
Psalm 37:1 (TPT)
The scriptures provide you with the Wisdom of God for your living. It answers the deep questions of your heart. And when you submit your mind to its words your thoughts will be properly cultured and shaped.
For example, this Song of Wisdom, Psalm 37, is able to redirect your mind towards the higher life God has given us.
As I mentioned in the previous episode from this Psalm, David reassures the people of God to continue to trust in the Lord and to refuse every desire or attempt to be like the people of the world. It also emphasizes how the success of the wicked or the ungodly has no eternal value.
He doesn’t only conscientize you, on why you don’t have to be intimidated by the accomplishment of the worldly, but also the things to do to experience the God-centered or God-kind of success.
From verses 3 to 5 of Psalm 34 (The Passion Translation), we unravelled some few wisdom keys which David outlined in his Psalm.
– (verse 3a) Keep trusting in the Lord and do what is right in his eyes.
– (Verse 3b) Fix your heart on the promises of God and you will be secured, feasting on his faithfulness.
– (Verse 4) Make God the utmost delight and pleasure of your life, and he will provide for you what you desire the most.
– (Verse 5) Give God the right to direct your life, and as you trust him along the way you’ll find he pulled it off perfectly!
David explains further that, when you give God the right to direct your life, He will not only pull it off perfectly but will also “…appear as your righteousness, as sure as the dawning of a new day. He will manifest as your justice, as sure and strong as the noonday sun.” (verse 6).
What this means is that the direction of the Lord makes you walk in light. There is no way your paths will be overwhelmed by any gorm darkness. And you will experience His righteousness, which is also the right-wiseness of God.
There are more wisdom keys David shared in his Psalm:
– (Verse 7a) Quiet your heart in his presence and pray;
keep hope alive as you long for God to come through for you.
David now addresses the issue of meditation, spending time with God and prayer.
You cannot trust in God and give Him the right to direct without being prayerful and also spending more time in His presence.
You must have the habit of spending time alone with God.
It is in that atmosphere that the Lord is able to open your eyes to see. It is in that atmosphere the Lord shows you the way to go. Concerning PRAYER I have shared more here and here. Please do well to read.
– (Verse 7b) And don’t think for a moment that the wicked in their prosperity are better off than you.
The moment you begin to think this way, you are clearly devaluing who God is to you and what He has accomplished for you.
What you have received from God and the path He is leading you has more transcendent results and prosperity than all the prosperity of the world put together.
David now gives an instructive wisdom key. This key prevents you from error. Anger, revenge, envy and lies are instruments of the devil to distract you from expressing the excellence of God. They are thorns which compete with the blessedness of God within you. These things make you live in the flesh and also contrary to your true identity.
When you cultivate these things in your heart, you give the devil the chance to exercise his rule. However, when you so learn Christ, you will not allow such inconsistent behaviors to govern your heart.
Let the love of God rule in your heart.
Hallelujah!

if your success can be calculated and placed in a restricted value then true success hasn’t been arrived at because the success God ushers a man into is limitless because Gods work is great and it takes great resources to accomplish so the ‘Networth’ of people they claim to be successful is the real definition of a chicken change to God because it is limited GOD BRINGS HIS MEN INTO WHAT IS UNLIMITED SUCCESS.

Awesome
In this machaira with Apostle Bennie devotional, the episode emphasises the art of staying in God’s presence in prayer and meditation. This gives the spirit of God the room to show us things to do. The machaira again emphasises that the wealth of the wicked has no eternal value, hence should not intimidate me. Lastly it blesses with an instruction to keep anger, bitterness, envy and lying from our hearts and lips because these competes with the blessings of God in our lives.
Thank you
Glory be God! I submit my mind, will and emotion to God , Hallelujah
