GOING INTO A MARRIAGE WITH A RELATIONSHIP THAT TAKES YOUR JOY IS SIGNING FOR PREMATURE DEATH

WISDOM IS A FOUNTAIN THAT RELEASES THE RIVERS OF LIFE AND DROWNS THE FORCES OF DEATH

EVERY ATTACK ON YOUR JOY IS AN ATTACK ON YOUR LIFE

UNFORGIVENESS AND BITTERNESS SET THE PACE FOR BOTH TROUBLE AND DESTRUCTION

- Pastor Dr. Paul Enenche on "WISDOM FOR LIVING " || September 2024 Preservation (Midweek) Service || Dunamis International Gospel Centre || The Glory Dome, Abuja || Part A.

I welcome everyone here tonight in the precious name of Jesus. What a very hectic convention week and also a very highly impactful convention we had. Church Gist. Testimonies coming from everywhere is showing that we didn't waste our time last week. To God be the praise. 

Tonight is our preservation service for the month of September and I'm speaking on "WISDOM FOR LIVING". Church Gist. And our objective is understanding the wisdom keys for durable and quality living. Wisdom for living. 

Proverbs 13:14. Wisdom is a fountain that supplies rivers of life, supplies streams of life. Wisdom is a fountain that drowns the forces of death. Church Gist. It's a fountain that releases the rivers of life and drowns the forces of death. On the other hand, foolishness is a killer. Ecclesiastes 7:17. Foolishness cuts people short before their time. Ecclesiastes 7:12. So, there are two things that wisdom and money have in common. Church Gist. Wisdom can defend you from shame, money can defend you from embarrassment but there's something wisdom has that money does not have. That is, the superiority of wisdom is that it gives life to those who have it. There are people who have money but the money couldn't purchase them life. Church Gist. But wisdom is known to prolong life, wisdom is known to do for you what money can't do. 
- somebody say a loud Amen. 

Going further. Proverbs 15:24. That is, wisdom links up to life whereas foolishness sinks you down in death. Wisdom is a link to life. Church Gist. The absence of wisdom is the way of death. So, tonight, we are going to look at 8 wisdom keys that a man or woman possessing will impart on quality life, meaningful life and durable life. 

1. Maintain a joyful heart. 
Proverbs 17:22. A merry heart is a tonic for life. When the bone is dried up, what is that? I'm talking to you medically. Church Gist. The bone is the centre for the manufacture of the blood cells - the red blood cells, white blood cells and all of that. When that bone is dried up, life is gone because the red blood cells transport the oxygen in the body. The whole of the body, the transportation of oxygen is the red blood cells. Church Gist. When you don't have red blood cells, you don't have blood, you're anaemic, anaemia to death. So, joylessness is the drying up of life. There are people who have been depressed to death. 

If you want your life to be exciting and quality, you must not allow your joy to dry. Isaiah 61:3. Joel 1:11-12. Church Gist. Everything just dried up because joy dried. If the trees, the living things can dry, the life of a man can dry up. Listen, every attack on your joy is an attack on your life. Whatever you need to do to ensure that your joy is intact, do it. That is why those who are not yet married, when you marry frustration, you sign for a lifetime of depression. Church Gist. God will give you signals in your courtship and relationship. That relationship that is already taking your joy, to go forward like an ox to the slaughter, is to sign for premature death. I'm speaking prophetically to somebody. Maintain a joyful heart. 

There are research on octogenarians, we talked about sometime ago, where they said that laughter and a good sense of humour had been the source of them living 80 years and above. Church Gist. And I have shown you many times, people depressed to death, depressed until they died, they never woke up the next day. 
- That will never be your portion!
So, it is not just an action, it is a wisdom. If you want to live long and live in quality, it is wise to maintain a joyful heart.

I heard the story of a young lady, she was diagnosed with, I believe, leukemia, a blood cell cancer or something. And this person said, "well, before I die, let me enjoy myself". Church Gist. Decided to organize some clean humour, clean comedy, just played some of them and just kept on laughing and said, "At least, before I die, let me just be happy" and just laughed and laughed and within six weeks, every trace of this thing died out of her system. Because merriment is medicinal. A merry heart doeth good like medicine. 

2. Maintain a bitterness-free heart. 
Avoid an unforgiving and bitter heart. Avoid unforgiveness and bitterness. The two of them set the pace for both trouble and destruction. It's a wisdom. Hebrews 12:15. Church . That 'defiled' can be 'many be destroyed' because the Bible said the little leaven leaveneth the whole lump; little foxes destroy the vines. Root of bitterness springing up becomes a destruction to many. Mark 11:25. Church Gist. So, unforgiveness and this bitterness also interfere in your relationship with God and it is God who is to protect and preserve your life and now, there's a breakdown of connection between you and God because of bitterness and that can lead to destruction.
