“For who has known the mind of the Lord, to instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.” 1 Corinthians 2:16

If you are born again, then wisdom is your heritage and unmatched intelligence. This is only natural, because everything reproduces according to its kind. If your Father is the Only Wise God (Jude 25), you cannot be His foolish child! It is the right of every child to inherit everything his father has. So, everything the Heavenly Father has is yours, including His wisdom! Wisdom, the Bible tells us, is “justified by her children” (Matt. 11:19).

By virtue of your new birth, old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new. You therefore have a new brain, a new mindset, a new perspective.

You have unmatched intelligence, you are a peculiar being. Therefore, do not be afraid to have exceptional thoughts and visions. You are an heir of God, and a joint-heir with Jesus. God continues to create things today through you, just as He made the world through the hands of Jesus (John 1:3).

Jesus sent you just as He was sent by God. There is tremendous potential lying within you, silently crying out to express itself. The thought you have now is the same that created the world we live in. So why would you die in your little corner? Therefore, He wants to do even greater things through you. You cannot sit in a dark corner and wait for things to happen on their own; you are the one who must cause them to happen.

Our generation will witness explosive inventions, comparable to the original creation. And this will come from people who had no name before, but people who know how to activate the gifts of God within them. You have a sound mind, and it is a gift from God. It is time to activate it! It’s your turn to reign because “by wisdom kings reign, and princes decree justice.” So seek knowledge, and you will walk in wisdom. Your mind came alive when you came into contact with Jesus. You now have the responsibility to renew it through the encounters you have with knowledge. It needs updating. Romans 12:2 says:

“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”

Due to your identification in redemption, God has programmed you for excellent mental distinction. You should have no tension wherever you are – in your career, your business, your ministry…, because of the heavenly support you enjoy. They said of Jesus in Mark 6:2:

“…Where did this man get these things? What is this wisdom that has been given him, that he even does miracles?”

The results you command are proof of wisdom. The strength of your results is commensurate with the strength of the wisdom with which you operate. YOU HAVE UNMATCHED INTELLIGENCE.
