Pastor Dickson Ibekwe: Wisdom is walking in Jesus’ footsteps

WORDS OF WISDOM
THEME: WISDOM IS WALKING IN JESUS’ FOOTSTEPS
Bible Text: 1 Peter 2:21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps.
LIFE POINT
The wisest person is not necessarily the person who knows the most, but the person who lives according to God’s Word and follows the example of Christ.
True wisdom is not simply knowing what is right it is choosing to walk in the footsteps of Jesus. Jesus showed us how to live, with humility, love, obedience, patience, forgiveness, compassion, and complete trust in God. He did not live to please people; He lived to fulfill the will of His Father.
Walk in Love. Jesus loved even those who rejected and persecuted Him. Wisdom teaches us that we do not have to repay evil with evil. Ephesians 5:2 says . And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us.”
When you don’t know what decision to make, ask yourself. What would Jesus do? What would Jesus choose? How would Jesus respond?
If we walk in His footsteps, our lives will reflect His character, our decisions will reflect His wisdom, and our journey will bring glory to God.
Child of God Wisdom is not merely knowing the way, it is walking in the Way. Jesus said in John 14:6
I am the way, the truth, and the life.
Therefore, follow Jesus, walk like Jesus, love like Jesus, serve like Jesus, and live for God like Jesus.
Hallelujah to the Lamb of God.
PRAYER
Lord Jesus, help me to walk in Your footsteps. Give me the wisdom to make godly decisions, the humility to serve others, the strength to obey Your Word, and the grace to reflect Your character every day. May my life bring glory to Your name. Amen
