SAYINGS BY WILLIAM PETER MORGAN
THE SOCIAL STATUS OF A NATION IS DETERMINED BY THE MORAL STANDARD OF HER PEOPLE.
WHEN MORALITY BREAKS DOWN, SOCIETY DISINTEGRATES, PEOPLE CANNOT TELL THE TRUTH, THEY WILL CHEAT, LIE AND DECEIVE.
THE ABILITY TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT COMES FROM YOUR MORAL STRENGTH.
A MORALLY FLAWED OR DEPLETED PERSON CANNOT DO WHAT’S RIGHT.
SOCIETY THEREFORE CANNOT TRUST SUCH PERSON FOR LASTING PROGRESS AND MORAL EXAMPLE.
THE DRIVING FORCE OF A NATION LIES IN ITS SPIRITUAL PURPOSE.
GOD WILL DO NOTHING WITH ANYONE UNTIL HE HAS PREPARED THAT PERSON UP TO HIS OWN STANDARDS.
THE COMPANY YOU KEEP DETERMINES WHERE YOU ARE GOING. THERE IS A COMPANY THAT WILL EITHER BRING YOU TO YOUR DESTINY OR MAKE YOU FALL OUT OF IT; THEREFORE YOU NEED TO WALK IN DISCERNMENT.
THE STRENGTH AND QUALITY OF A MAN’S SOUL IS DETERMINED BY THE KIND OF SPIRIT HE POSSESSES.
DESIRE AND DISCIPLINE WORK HAND IN HAND ….. EACH FEEDS ONE ANOTHER.
ON FIRE AND NEVER CONSUMED, BURNING BUT NEVER BURNT OUT.
A WEEKLY WALK WITH GOD IS A WEAKLY WALK WITH GOD.
A PERSON'S COURAGE AND STRENGTH TO SUCCEED IN LIFE LIE WITHIN HIS HEART AND MIND.
YOUR MIND DIRECTS YOUR COURAGE AND DETERMINATION; AND SOME TIMES YOUR HEART SEES BETTER THAN YOUR EYES.
YOU DID NOT FAIL BECAUSE YOU DID NOT PASS THE EXAMINATION. REMEMBER, YOU HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT YOU WERE TESTED ON IN YOU. YOUR ONLY DIFFICULTY WAS NOT BEING ABLE TO ARRANGE YOUR THOUGHTS TO MEET THE EXAMINER'S REQUIREMENTS. UNDERSTAND THE KNOWLEDGE; PERFECT THE KNOWLEDGE; APPLY THE KNOWLEDGE PROPERLY; AND THEN A CERTIFICATE CAN BE PROFITABLE TO YOU.
- 2 -
UNSANCTIFIED HEARTS AND HANDS EMPLOYED IN THE WORK OF GOD (WILL ALWAYS) DESTROY THE WORK. THUS THE LABORERS’ BLESSINGS (ALSO) BECOME AFFECTED.
FOUR THINGS TO NOTE AND MAINTAIN
- DECISION … ALWAYS TRY TO MAKE QUALITY DECISIONS. GOD, THE HOLY SPIRIT, MUST LEAD.
- DISCIPLINE … YOUR WILL, MIND, SPIRIT AND EMOTIONS TO SEEK THE LORD INTENSELY EVERYDAY.
- DETERMINATION … NEVER GIVE UP IN SPITE OF ALL TRIALS, OPPOSITIONS, TEMPTATIONS, FALLINGS, DISAPPOINTMENTS AND DIFFICULTIES. JESUS AND HIS SPIRIT WILL SEE YOU THROUGH AS LONG AS YOU CONTINUE TO HANG ON TO HIM
- DILIGENCE … WORKING HARD TO ACHIEVE THE GOALS SET BEFORE YOU, NOT TO ALLOW FATIGUE, LAZINESS AND TIREDNESS KEEP YOU AWAY FROM GOD’S WORD, PRAYER AND WORK FOR THE KINGDOM
True Wisdom Rules Where "Jesus" Reigns
(Scripture REF: Prov.8:12-36 and James 3:13-18)
- Knowledge is the foundation of Wisdom. God is knowledge and formed all things through knowledge, including the creation of man.
- Knowledge is acquired facts and truths; Whilst wisdom is the fruitful or profitable utilization of such acquired facts and truths. To have knowledge without understanding is vile and dangerous.
- Wisdom is developed through knowledge and the depth and quality of one's wisdom is determined by the depth and quality of one's knowledge.
- One cannot be promoted beyond the knowledge that he/she has: - hence a man's gift makes room for him and brings him before great men.
- When one has no knowledge, one can have no progress: - little knowledge, little progress, much knowledge, much progress.
- You are worth nothing and you know nothing until what you know and what you are worth blesses or benefits someone. You cannot commend yourself, someone has to do it. If no one buys what you sell - or your services, you are not fit to be in business.
The Word of God is wisdom. Divine revelation is the Word and Wisdom of God, and pure religion, and undefiled is built upon it. God, by His Word instructs, and governs, and blesses the children of men.
Jesus, the Redeemer is the eternal Word and Wisdom. the LOGOS. Jesus is the LOGOS, the Written Word. Jesus is the Wisdom who is in and behind all that God the Father created. The Word, who originally was Spirit, but became flesh and touchable can be revealed to us only by the Spirit of the Father and God of the Word.
