Provoking Your Understanding

Author : Moyo-Angel Bamidele

Christian Articles Resource Cross Text: Hosea 4:6

Knowledge is the acquiring of facts. Understanding is the interpretation of facts. Wisdom is the application of facts.
Provoking your understanding? What do we mean when say ' to provoke ' to provoke in the context of my teaching means to incite, rouse, inflame, trigger or better still to cause the annoyance of ones understand in-view of one ' s knowledge (acquisition of facts).

Then understanding is now the interpretation of the knowledge.
So when we say provoking ones understanding, it implies arousing your interest, to cause annoyance of ones rights and privileges.
The scripture says, my people are perishing because of lack of knowledge (ignorance) and went on to say, the knowledge was made available to them but they rejected it.

Ignorance can be illustrated as a person willed an inheritance to, and was taken as a slave over his own inheritances due to his ignorance of the truth. In the account of the prodigal son in Luke 15:17a, but when he came to himself ...the prodigal son was enslaved due to ignorance of who he actually was.

That was ignorance, because he does not have adequate knowledge of what rightly belongs to him. And without the acquisition of facts, there is no interpretation of facts.

God has given to us everything that pertains to life and godliness, He said everything is ours. He willed to us heavenly inheritances, but many of us are still struggling and enslaved due to the ignorance of who we actually are.

This teaching is actually meant to provoke you into acquisition of those facts you are ignorance of.

You ' re begging, living in poverty because you don ' t know your real self.

· Do you know about the authority of a believer as a king?
· Do you know about the authority you have over sickness?
· The authority you have over demonic and satanic activities?

You are enslaved because of the wrong picture of your real self, you don ' t give your life to Christ to experience failure, sickness, demonic oppressions, name them/

C ' mon exercise your authority. God has given you a Word to every circumstances, c ' mon speak out.

I told people I can never die before my time, or fall sick. This is not a prayer point, but God has given me a Word as an authority to live with and the understanding of my inheritances in Christ Jesus.

When you are still falling sick, you are enslaved to it.
When you are still begging, you are enslaved to it.

You can exercise your authority now, God has given you a Word to answer every situations. Wake up to your responsibilities, stand up against and exercise your authority over sickness, poverty, pre-mature death, barrenness, failure,...

You are created to reign, to rule, to exercise authority because we are Child of authority through Christ Jesus and delivered to us our inheritances on the Cross.

Let your ignorance be provoked
Let your understanding be provoked.
