YOUR DELIVERANCE


People pay more for ignorance than they pay for knowledge. Yet, people would rather hold on to the little they know rather than pursue what they do not know. More than ever, as a believer, we must recognise that we need to pursue a deeper knowledge of God and His Word.

When a sinner repents, in that moment God delivers him from the power of darkness and translates into the kingdom of his dear son {Col1:13}. We are delivered from the hold of darkness and set free by the power of the cross. Nevertheless, we do not know all that we should know. Hence, we must pursue knowledge to stay on top and above the wiles of the enemy in this world.

The book of Proverbs says "An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered".The righteous will be delivered by knowledge. Your deliverance from poverty, Sickness, condemnation, sin, is a function of your knowledge. Jesus told those Jews "and you shall KNOW the truth and it will set you free"

It is this same ignorance that causes many to be prey to the enemy over and over. Yes! You are the Righteousness of God, but you must pursue knowledge to overcome the wiles of the devil.

While in the university I came to discover that "I have more understanding than my teachers" Psalm 119:99-100. That word gave me a huge leverage as my grades sky rocketed to higher levels and I ended up with a Second Class Upper in Political Science.

Your level of knowledge determines the level of freedom you enjoy.

Central Truth: Pursue knowledge your deliverance is tied to it.

FOCUS SCRIPTURE: Proverbs 11:9

Prayer:
LORD, I refuse to be ignorant, baptise me with the Spirit of Knowledge in Jesus Name. Amen
