Lessons learnt during second day of International Thanksgiving to God:
James 3:15-17 KJV
This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. [16] For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. [17] But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
Philippians 3:19 KJV
Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.
The wisdom that is from above is not unto pardition but unto salvation.
Yesterday we learnt that our mind has to be set on heavenly things and we can do this by by having a concentration on the things in heaven. And when we walk in the wisdom from above it is full of purity, the fruits of our labour/ service is seen without hypocrisy.
Wisdom that is not from above is sensual and devilish. When you walk in this kind of walking is full of jealousy, every evil work.
James 3:17 guides us to what we should do as believers, we must have good fruits, full of mercy.
We have to practice what we preach. When we're separated from Christ we can't do anything, so with Christ in us we can do all things.

In times of need we have a God who will not fail us.
