The Father calls His children to analyze their own thoughts, actions, and beliefs. After all, is there any point in sowing alot, working too hard, and believe that your desires will come into your hands, if the reality is quite different from what you imagined? He says: Therefore be careful to observe them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples who will hear all these statutes, and say: Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people (Deuteronomy 4:6). This is the direction!
The Most High is talking about His commandments, which can be fulfilled, provided there is love in your heart. This happened to Jacob, who had to work seven more years for Rachel: So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed only a few days to him because of the love he had for her (Genesis 29:20). When there is love, serving the Lord is easy, just as He said: For My yoke is easy and My burden is light. (Matthew 11:30). God is faithful!
Many Christians stay with pen and paper in their hands, writing down the quotes spoken from the pulpit, but they don’t improve their fellowship with God. They eat the manna given by the Most High and are not satisfied; they become spiritually obese, but have no health to get rid of temptations. It is time to identify the error in you, for the Lord is unchangeable (Malachi 3:6). One must be wise!
Wisdom makes the difference, because victory will always come from this ability, even if we don’t have the enemy´s strength: Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? (Luke 14:31). Wisdom consists in giving up everything we have (Luke 14:33). The chance to get it right is now; later, it may be too late.
When we drink from the revelations of the Word, we must quench our thirst. However, many only think of parties and congratulations. These people ignore that the Mighty God is not entertaining His people, but visiting them to give them the ability to ask for – claim or ordain – anything they want, and it will be done for them: But I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you (John 16:22b). Believe!
We must put on the Word to warm our spirit, so that we can determine something and see it accomplished; otherwise, we will bring a death sentence upon ourselves! Those who warm themselves with divine fire act differently from Peter, who sought to warm himself at the campfire of those who condemned Jesus: My heart was hot within me; while I was musing, the fire burned. Then I spoke with my tongue: (Psalms 39:3). Act!
The fearful man received a talent and hid it. Therefore, he went into outer darkness (Matthew 25:14-30). However, today, some lose their talent by putting it in a bag with holes. Mercy! We will give an account of what we have done with what we were given. Your victory depends on your attitude!
In Christ, with love,

Father, our Counselor! We are thankful that You open our eyes, for Your commandments, testimonies, judgments and precepts will make us successful in faith. So we thank You for the teaching that we have just had. We need to change!
The lesson was taught, and the Israelites were not mixing with faith the power they had been given, so they would have more problems ahead. The same has happened to us. But the wise can overcome with ten thousand those who come against them with twenty thousand.
Right now, we are deciding to change our lives, otherwise we will lose the talents You have given us. We are mending our sachet, to hold what has been entrusted to us. Your love and power are great. We praise You with love!
