The mental structures of societies are far more important than the physical structures and that is the idea behind education, it would interest you to know that formal education was never a product of government, it was a product of religious leaders not of government. Formal education came because of religious leaders and philosophers who sought to transmit the ideas they had, which they believed were of some higher inspiration than the norm in their societies and sought to reproduce themselves in those they chose as disciples who eventually became those described as scholars and this went on for many many years before government began to acquire the philosophies, the ideas because those who had been trained by these folks had come into government and they said education should not only be for the selected few but should be made available because they saw the need for it in transforming societies, they understood that until you have built mental structures, you could not build excellent physical structures. So what you see in the society is a reflection, it is also a manifestation of the structures of the mind of those behind whatever it is that you see, the bible tells us something, I would like us to begin our scripture reading from proverbs chapter 17, I want you to read for me in verse 27; He that hath knowledge spareth his words and the man of understanding is of an excellent spirit, he that hath knowledge spareth his words, he that hath knowledge spareth his words, he says the real man of knowledge is not a noisemaker and that a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit. So someone who has an excellent spirit demonstrates understanding, he says if you see a man who demonstrates understanding he has an excellent spirit, he has an excellent spirit. Now, from today what I want you to begin to do is channel your thinking, focus your mind towards reproducing in yourself nothing short of excellence. You are going to have to make up your mind for high ideals as a person, are you listening, then you work this thing through over some time and you can measure your progress over that period. He says a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.

Alright now let’s look at two other verses, one is the book of Daniel chapter number 5, Daniel chapter number 5 vs 12; For as much as an excellent spirit in knowledge and understanding interpreting of dreams and showing of hard sentences and dissolving of doubts were found in the same Daniel, an excellent spirit and an excellent spirit goes with these beautiful qualities, knowledge, understanding then it says here interpreting of dreams showing of hard sentences, meaning that he could explain hard sentences, difficult words, difficult constructions and dissolving of doubts in other words by the time you heard from Daniel, your doubts were dissolved, wonderful, he says these qualities were found in that Daniel, these qualities were found in Daniel, now lets read… just another, verse 14, they were saying these to Daniel, he says to him, I have even heard of thee that the spirit of the gods is in thee, now because they were idol worshippers ok, so they say the spirit of the gods but this was the spirit of God, see that the spirit of the gods is in thee and that light, and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee, wonderful, now let’s go to chapter 6 the same book, then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes because an excellent spirit was in him and the king thought to set him over the whole realm, remarkable, remarkable, the man had an excellent spirit and we learnt of those qualities of his character.

Let’s begin a process, and what we are sharing here is practical wisdom and remember Phronesis is practical wisdom and the Bible says that God gave Solomon Phronesis, practical wisdom. See, some people have mental wisdom, they just think and they seem to have great ideas, and they even think they have got more wisdom than everybody else, but it doesn’t translate into its practicality in their lives. That’s why you find certain people, you know they come on television, they tell us what the president should do, what the governors should do, they tell us what should be happening and nothing is happening in their own lives but they seem to know everything and where they speak people agree with them but they are not changing anything. They are social critics, you have them everywhere including in churches, they just seem to know everything that should be done but they never effect changes, because what they have is not Phronesis. Phronesis is practical wisdom, the wisdom that translates into your character. You see, its wisdom that is revealed in the things you do, that’s why Solomon was greater than others because the wisdom that he had was Phronesis, practical wisdom and the bible says that he was wiser than all men, praise God. Solomon was wiser than all men, can you imagine, there was one man in this world who was wiser than everybody (laughing) and we wouldn’t have known that that was possible if the bible hadn’t told us, God said so, alright when Jesus came, what did Jesus say about himself, he said a greater than Solomon is here, he called himself a greater than Solomon in wisdom, he talked about Solomon’s wisdom and yet declared that he was wiser than Solomon and it’s true, and the bible tells us that he has made that wisdom available to us, that wisdom that was better than Solomon’s wisdom has been made available to us but how many have taken advantage of that wisdom, how many have appropriated that wisdom to their own lives, not many and how easy it is to have it, you don’t even have to pray to get it, can you imagine, you don’t even have to pray to get it. Those possibilities of wisdom were made available to your spirit when you were born again; the bible says Jesus Christ was made wisdom to us meaning that when a man receives Christ he receives the wisdom of God into his spirit and you can channel that wisdom through the understanding of the word of God through walking in the light of Gods word from Sophia to Sunesis; Sunesis is the understanding of Gods word, the way you view Gods word your ability to comprehend it is Sunesis and when you translate that into action and it controls your mind controls the way you live then you have the practicality of wisdom that is Phronesis, did you hear what I said?
Now lets read one more scripture, let’s see how we can begin immediately to do those things that have the power to shape our lives, I want us to go to the book of James and chapter number 4, book of James chapter no 4, I want us to read verse 17; it says therefore to him that knoweth to do good and doeth it not to him it is sin, this is practical wisdom, the practical wisdom of God doesn’t come to you by meditation, no it’s the wisdom that God puts there in your spirit but its not Phonesis until it is put to work, because it is a way of life, it is a mentality,in the new testament, Its called the wisdom of the just,the wisdom of the righteous, the phonesis of the righteous and it is remarkable that is described as the phonesis of the righteous, its remarkable because we just read something in James chapter 4 verse 17 where it says therefore to him that knoweth to do good and doeth it not to him it is sin, which means that man is not walking in phonesis, which is the wisdom of the righteous, so phonesis means that you know what is right and you do what is right; now others are unlikely to know that thing that is right and therefore to do it, now some others would move further and know what is right but be unable to do it and therefore walk in unrighteousness which is sin, the bible says every unrighteousness is sin, now when he says therefore to him that knoweth to do good and doeth it not to him it is sin, it means that that thing is unrighteousness so you are not walking in righteousness when you know what to do which is right and then not to do it, for example when we were younger in school, they began to teach us things like picking up litters, alright we were taught in school, that as we walk along in the compound in the school compound and we saw litters it didn’t mean that you were the one that put them there, they said pick them up and as you passed by you noticed a little paper down there and you picked it up and there was somewhere for you to drop it so they were teaching us practical wisdom, the trouble was the folks who were in charge of the higher schools were not structured to take us on so many of us when we got into the university lost that sense because it didn’t go on, most people become more selfish when they get into the university than anywhere else because in the university most, I think their concern now about handout.
Now I understand, just the handouts want to make money, everybody wants to make money, but money is a tool and if you don’t make your mind it doesn’t matter how much money you make you’re going to fail, its just a matter of time, you know so the people who think that if they just had enough money everything would be fine, no, so begin today, begin today to condition your spirit into an excellent character, condition your spirit into an excellent character, you know you can have an excellent spirit that is not an excellent character, what they were describing for us there those men had an excellent character but just because your spirit is born again and you have the holy ghost in you who is an excellent spirit doesn’t mean that you have an excellent character because you have to develop, condition your spirit to become an excellent character, that’s why they said the spirit of the gods they thought the spirit of the gods was in Daniel, they didn’t see it as Daniels peculiar character but that it was the spirit of the gods that was in him but when you study the word of God you would find that it was Daniel’s peculiar character as granted him by God and so you also you have the holy spirit ok, who lives in you, not only that the bible says that Christ has been made unto you wisdom so what are you going to do, you are going to program, program your spirit to become an excellent character, you’re going to program your spirit are you hearing me, you train your spirit to become an excellent character, it’s a personal training nobody is going to do it for you and for that to even begin to happen in your life, you must covet it, you must crave it. CONDITIONING YOUR SPIRIT FOR EXCELLENCE
You’re God’s excellent…https://wp.me/p9v28c-7Ck
Now, he was the one who taught his son about wisdom so David was a great man and if truly greatness is a synonym of excellence then he was an excellent man. You know excellence can be related to certain qualities like they say that man is an excellent banker, it doesn’t mean that he is an excellent politician and he may not be an excellent father you see that, but an excellent banker so he could be qualified. So excellence is surpassing others, surpassing others, it is the greatness, it is surpassing others. It is extreme beauty and one more word is the WORD GLORY. So, excellence is being glorious. Alright, excellence also means extraordinary discretion. Excellence means discretion beyond the ordinary. That means having excellent perception and that’s the difference between the greats and the smalls. Great people have great visions and great visions don’t mean that you have great things you want to do no. It means a wide array or a vast arena of perception; extraordinary amplitude of perception, of vision. The ability to see so much at the same time. So what makes people greater than others has a lot to do with the ability to see, so those little things you do outside are things that are happening within your spirit. So when you pick up those litters and you remove them, what are you doing? You are picking up litters in your spirit, so that’s why we ought to teach people, help them learn the value and dignity of true labour. It is not about a salary, it is not about a paycheque or maybe meeting financial needs. No, it’s about the character. it’s about doing something i.e greater than yourself. That’s the value of labour. It’s not all about money and if you can program your spirit money can never be stopped from coming to you and the more the finer, the finer your spirit is attuned organized ie perfected within your system, the greater the results that come to you. Never forget that. Alright let’s pray, may God help you to see this truth, may God help you to live by them, may God help you to have other guards, condition your spirit.
