STRETCH IT NOW! REFUSE SELECTIVE SUCCESS!
BASIC SCRIPTURE: ECCLESIASTES 9: 13-18
Welcome! Ecclesiastes 8:1 says: “Who is as the wise man? And who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? A man’s wisdom maketh his face to shine, and the boldness of his face shall be changed. You will shine this year because the LORD will do a thing that will surprise your nation. Ecclesiastes 9:15-16 also says: “Now there was found in it a poor Wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city, yet no man remembered that same poor man. Then said l, ‘Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor man’s wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.” Wow! A POOR MAN’S WISDOM IS DESPISED!

So why was the WISE MAN POOR in the first place? He was poor because he could not make FULL USE OF THE WISDOM ON HIS INSIDE! He made SELECTIVE USE of it! That means you can be successful in your marriage but become a failure in your prayer or Word life! Yes! Some people are success stories in their finances, but failures in their homes or in managing people! Some are success stories in their prayer and zeal for God, but very bad MORAL FAILURES! They cannot handle fornication, adultery masturbation, lesbianism, homosexualism, anger, forgiveness, pride, self-pity, depression, etc. They are also cheats and liars! They cannot be trusted with money or trusted to keep an agreement, yet they are always in church! Why was a man who could deliver a city not able to deliver himself?

He probably forgot that WISDOM IS ELASTIC! IF YOU DON’T STRETCH IT, YOU WILL END UP AS A SHAMEFUL LAND! See Luke 2:52 -“And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.” Did you get that? WISDOM can grow or remain stagnant! It can INCREASE or decrease. YOU CAN STRETCH IT or just use it in only one area of your life or ministry! The Holy Ghost wants you to cry out to God for grace to STRETCH THE WISDOM OF GOD IN YOU to COVER every area of your existence! This is TOTAL WISDOM APPLICATION to ALL AREAS OF YOUR LIFE, FAMILY AND MINISTRY! Refuse to be a SELECTIVE SUCCESS! STRETCH IT to all areas! Start praying now!
