LEARNING TO WALK WISELY
Proverbs 13:20 KJV
He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.
There is a spiritual civil war going on in the Church of Jesus Christ!
The house of Saul is seeking to destroy the house of David, to try to prolong a reign that keeps God’s people unarmed, easily deceived and looking for power from the devil (1Sam. 13:19-23).
God is raising up, training and fighting via the house of David (Amos 9:11-12) and we are winning this war (2Sam. 3:1).
These two characteristics; expertise in spiritual warfare (Eph. 6:12-18) and walking wisely/circumspectly (Eph. 5:15-17) helped David escape traps (1Sam. 18:25) and grow to command the favour and loyalty of his people.
God taught David how to walk wisely before Him in divine love (1Sam. 24:3-7, 10-12) to the point that Saul, whose ambition was to destroy him, joined Samuel to release him into his destiny (Prov. 16:7).
Our enemies will say and do what God said, if we walk wisely. It is a strong foundation for our kingship in Zion.
How do we walk wisely:
– Make Agape Love our aim (1Cor. 14:1). Be under spiritual Covering of set fathers in Zion (Isa. 32:1-2).
Samuel’s Covering protected David, supplemented his spiritual nourishment and helped him grow in meekness and lowliness of heart (Matt. 11:28-30). Without Covering, you cannot do all of God’s will.
– Learn spiritual warfare. Operate the 7 pillars of wisdom. Pray with travail & tongues regularly.
– Be obedient to apostolic instruction through fathers (Jas. 1:22).
– Diligent watching and praying (Lk. 21:36). Actively grow in frequency; once every six hours, every hour (Matt. 24:42), at every opportunity and in every temptation (Matt. 26:41).
– Be sensitive to and be led by the Holy Spirit (Jn. 5:30) – the still small voice. Every nudge, unease within should be prayerfully weighed in the light of God’s Word (Ps. 119:24, 130), before you act on it.).
