OUR MESSAGE FOR TODAY’S SUNDAY SERVICE ON MARCH 22, 2015 IS: THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD TO POSSESS YOUR POSSESSIONS:

OUR MESSAGE FOR TODAY’S SUNDAY SERVICE ON MARCH 22, 2015 IS: ECCLESIASTES 1:1-18 GODS KNOWLEDGE TO POSSESS YOUR POSSESSIONS: THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD TO POSSESS YOUR POSSESSIONS: 1. It is important for us as Children of God to get the knowledge of God, that everything in life is meaningless because they are temporal. The only thing that is permanent is your Salvation through Christ Jesus which opens doors of the benefit package of our salvation to possess our possessions. See verses 1-5 2. In this planet that we live in, some people live on assumptions that they will be here for ever, they also believe that the little things in their hands will be there always too, but they have forgotten that nothing lasts for ever on earth as follows:- a) The wind blows to the south and turns to the North b) All streams flows into the Sea, yet the Sea is never full c) All things are wearisome, more than one can say d) The eye never has enough of seeing, nor the ear its fill of hearing e) What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again f) There is nothing new under the Sun. g) No one remembers the former generations, and even those yet to come, will not be remembered by those who follow them. See verses 6-11 3. It now calls for us to walk in the knowledge of God while we are here on this planet earth, so as to possess our possessions and make use of the pleasantries and treasures God has blessed us with to be a blessing to some one in need around us, for that is the purpose we are born to this planet earth to make a difference by being there for one another, for that is how to walk in the wisdom of God that will build you to inherit your inheritance, so that you will not be chasing the wind that you cannot get hold of. See verses 12-14 4. There is something most of us on earth do not understand because we lack the knowledge of God to possess our possessions. It might interest you to know that what is crooked cannot be made straight, what is lacking cannot be counted. It might interest you to know that no matter how you increased in Wisdom, Understanding, and Knowledge you cannot be God to change things that cannot be changed by mortal. See verses 15-16 5. In conclusion the wisest man that ever lived known as King Solomon asked for wisdom direct from God and received measures beyond his request and imaginations, for God added things he did not even ask to him. He hereby concluded as follows about life below: a) He said I have experienced much wisdom and knowledge b) I have increased in wisdom more than anyone c) I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom d) And all of Madness and folly, and learned that it is chasing the wind e) For much wisdom comes much sorrow, the more knowledge comes much grief. What do we learn from this? Learn not to horde your Gods giving gifts, talents, wisdom, understanding and knowledge, use it while you are on this earth to be a blessing to your fellow humans so as to possess your possessions, and live a Godly inheritance to your children’s children. Proverbs 13:22 states that “the wealth of the unrighteous will be transferred to the just so that the just will live an inheritance to their offspring’s” which is generational blessings. 6. My prayer for you today is to receive the Anointing power to walk in Godly knowledge to possess your possessions in Jesus name Amen. Read below: Ecclesiastes 1:1-18 New International Version (NIV) Everything Is Meaningless 1 The words of the Teacher, son of David, king in Jerusalem: 2 “Meaningless! Meaningless! says the Teacher. “Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless.” 3 What do people gain from all their labors at which they toil under the sun? 4 Generations come and generations go, but the earth remains forever. 5 The sun rises and the sun sets, and hurries back to where it rises. 6 The wind blows to the south and turns to the north; round and round it goes, ever returning on its course. 7 All streams flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full. To the place the streams come from, there they return again. 8 All things are wearisome, more than one can say. The eye never has enough of seeing, nor the ear its fill of hearing. 9 What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. 10 Is there anything of which one can say, “Look! This is something new”? It was here already, long ago; it was here before our time. 11 No one remembers the former generations, and even those yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow them. Wisdom Is Meaningless 12 I, the Teacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem. 13 I applied my mind to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under the heavens. What a heavy burden God has laid on mankind! 14 I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind. 15 What is crooked cannot be straightened; what is lacking cannot be counted. 16 I said to myself, “Look, I have increased in wisdom more than anyone who has ruled over Jerusalem before me; I have experienced much of wisdom and knowledge.” 17 Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom, and also of madness and folly, but I learned that this, too, is a chasing after the wind. 18 For with much wisdom comes much sorrow; the more knowledge, the more grief.
