“Well, the proof of wisdom is in the actions it produces.” Matthew 11:19
The message or wording of the complete Jewish bible is interesting when you compare it with other translations like Kings James version. It has all the real names of the Lord and prophets and other men in the bible, and real names of the places. But more so it has a slightly different message, one which I find to be more in line with what Yeshua is showing me. For example the above verse in the King James version says “wisdom is justified by its children.”
There is not much difference between the two, the same point is made. But an argument can be made that we are all children of God if we said the sinner’s prayer while still not acting in the wisdom of God. It is not true, the true born again children of God do act in his wisdom. You cannot say you are of God and act in ignorance and stupidity. And then instead of giving wise instruction to the people, because they do not want to hurt their feelings or upset them. They gather around them and try to comfort them when the calamity comes. Trying to make it like they are OK with God and it is just life happening when the truth is they did not obey God and do their actions in wisdom.
This is the point God is making to me today, wisdom and God are one in the same. You cannot say you are of God and act without wisdom. And in the end you will bear fruit accordingly, according to wisdom or according to the blindness you have when you walk in the world.
Most all my messages are about this working itself out in my life. We can decide to be educated according to this world and the one who rules this world. Or we can decide to be educated by the one who gives wisdom. The world’s knowledge destroys and kills. It takes your health and your wealth. It used to at least allow you to build up wealth, but these days because of serious debt issues with the governments of this world and how it produces inflation and is destroying the budgets of the people, along with their own debt on everything from homes to cars to credit cards, and of course the young people with some serious college loan debt.
I have watched things change sooooo much over the years, for example the simple life we had growing up where your mom could stay home and you could live on one income. We did not have easy 30 year mortgages (now 50 years being proposed by Trump). And car loans and credit cards… We did not have health insurance like today. These products created this fake economy I have told you about many times, one not of God. His words not mine.
We live in that world and cooperate by choice. For some reason we think we need to be educated with the poison this world shows us, then pay into all these debt things with car loans on the most fancy car we can buy, the biggest most fancy home in the best neighborhoods. Having the best health insurance. And we want it all for free.
The thought the Lord put on my mind this morning is “we want our cake and for everyone else to pay for it, namely the government.” A play on an old saying.
Many times I have mentioned the cost of us having our son by c section here in Tijuana, and the cost of $3,000 out of our pocket with much better service and a private room for two nights for my wife. And how a few miles (literally like 2 miles from the border with the USA) it would have cost $50,000. But you would not have seen the actual cost because they hide it and pay it through a system that rips you off. In the end you would have paid around the same $3,000 with deductibles and coinsurance, and the insurance would have paid the rest. But then you have to pay the insurance premium, which is where they rob you blind. And the more the government gets involved in this process with medicare and obamacare… The more corrupt it is and the more waste.
The education system gives fruit from the tree of knowledge instead of wisdom (remember Adam and Eve?) It lies to you and makes you think it is good for you when after you partake you find out it is not. Well actually that is not true, most never find out it is not good for them, they keep doing what is mentioned above. They push a doctrine to make you comfortable in your life alone without God and his wisdom. The message makes it appear that guys like me who know the Lord and his wisdom are crazy lunatics and lucky for the lifestyle we live.
How can a 60 year old guy who has excellent health, built up wealth, and has a great relationship with his wife and kids in the house. I see my life as amazing.
And compare it to my in laws who were here the other night who all have big issues, are much younger. Some of them have a form of Godliness but deny him his power. And then argue with you about it. I show them and they see our life and cannot get it that the reason for it is we do not live apart from God’s wisdom like they do. We make it clear we have all this because of hearing and obeying God, that is not some fluke or we are lucky and others are not. There is no luck in the world, not in Gods Kingdom nor in satans kingdom. God knows this and so does satan, but like the lie he told Eve about eating from the fruit of the tree of knowledge and she did. It made them both open their eyes to the knowledge of the world and lose the wisdom of God.
Also many times I have talked about the fact we hear both from God and satan all day everyday. And we need to get rid of those thoughts which are not of God. We need to discipline ourselves to this, because we really want to believe the lie instead which tells us it is OK to still sin and remain living our own life, and then cry about our calamity when it comes like we are unlucky, instead of understanding it is because of our disobedience to the truth.
The perfect example is the story of my brother in law on thanksgiving. When I was making this point that we must obey and not sin, he kept saying “that’s your opinion” and at the same time he was calling my wife just 2 days earlier and crying with her about how much he is suffering. And he told me when we talked in private how sick or dark he feels inside him.
I make the point over and over and over, you have these problems because the light and wisdom of God is NOT in you no matter what your religion tells you or whatever you want to believe. Your opinion does not matter, only Yeshua’s does. How do we not see this and keep arguing instead of simply repenting and turning from our sin so we do not feel this way any longer? It is complete insanity to me that people can look at the fruit you are bearing and want it, but do not listen to you to achieve it.
So lets give another example of how it works out in life. The wisdom of God will make you have a lot of wisdom in the false economy of this world which then helps you profit, turning 4 talents into 8. As said in the previous writings, me getting into real estate some 10 plus years ago, right when the market was turning and then riding it to the end where now it is dead again like 2008. And knowing the end would come the same as 2008 and preparing for it by investing properly and buying the best options as they came around. In the business world there is a saying that “success is preparedness meeting opportunity.” And it is. We must prepare ourselves so we know what is a good investment and which is not, and then jump on the ones when we can because we have the money to do so (we prepared instead of spending it foolishly on cars and trips and fancy homes we could not afford so we financed them for 30 years instead of paying cash, having the best most expensive health insurance instead of going without…)
And being prepared mentally because you listen to the best in the business. You watch what people want and are looking for and then invest in those properties when the price is too good to pass up. And then double your money in a year or so tax free when you flip it because you know how the tax laws work because of wisdom. They do not teach you these things in the worldly knowledge. They do not want you to know these things so they benefit from them and you do not.
If you want wealth, do what the wealthy do, not what they teach you to do. What they teach you to do is to do things that make them more wealthy.
Two more examples, first is about real money. About 5 years ago I invested in silver, not just because I felt like it. But because of many things I was seeing about it. It is a metal that is used in manufacturing of cars, solar panels, electronics and many other things. So it is more than just a form of money, it is necessary to make many products. And they cannot keep up with usage or demand. It is up almost 100% this year, and I am not seeing any reason to sell it as of yet. It is going to keep going up.
I also know other countries, mostly brics countries, are stockpiling it. They have been printing money like crazy, the same as the US, but they have been investing it in gold and silver and many other natural resources necessary for all these things. The US has been giving away free phones and food stamps and subsidizing health insurance premiums through obamacare. The brics are doing what I do on a much bigger level. Or maybe I should say I am doing what the brics are doing on a much lower level.
I also have seen one of the biggest companies in blackrock, buying up family homes, and guys like Bill Gates buying up farmland everywhere. All these people are also not buying government bonds anymore, and putting their money into systems or real assets which will profit when the fiat money system defaults or gets destroyed.
The run in gold and silver has more to do with the devaluation of fiat money because of inflation, than it does with it just going up. In every country that had some sort of hyper inflation (coming soon to the USA). The real assets, like stocks and metals and homes (with their rents) all went up significantly as the fiat money went down.
For example silver is up about 150% over 5 years, in that time food costs are up about the same. So it is the fact it is keeping up with inflation and fiat money is not.
So back to the same story, so many people are crying because they cannot make ends meet and cannot afford a home, why not? We own more than one home, what’s the difference? Again preparedness meets opportunity. I have the wisdom of God and they have the knowledge of the world which tells them to spend, spend and spend some more. Making the rich even richer. And then complain because men like me did it right, made sacrifices with our comfort, took certain risks like no health insurance. Spend my time listening to people who know things better than I do and gain wisdom. But mostly simply obeying God. Because again he is the one who told me to move to Mexico, and he is the one who told me to get into real estate. But I do not waste my time scrolling facebook and posting pictures of myself, watching sports and movies… My time is spent on things which profit me Spiritually, Mentally, financially and in my health.
We have these things in order and enjoy them because we are prepared for them and do not waste our time on the entertainment of the world. Personally I find it much more enjoyable to listen to someone who knows more than me and has connections I do not have, tell what is going on in this world and how to profit from it. I enjoy spending time with Yeshua the most and listening to him tell me how to live a life within his Kingdom and have his gifts of the Spirit, his peace, joy, love, faith, patience and kindness.
These things I enjoy much more than any movie, any sporting event, any happy hour, any concert… While the rest of the world is blinded by these things of the world. I sit on the outside (in the Kingdom of God) looking in, seeing it as it really is. And living my life according to the things I see of God which is wisdom.
When the day comes to show what I did for Yeshua. He is going to see I took 4 talents and turned them into even more than 8. And he is going to say well done, good and faithful servant, because I am his servant. I do it his way, not my way. I do not tell Yeshua “well that is your opinion” instead I say thank you for your opinion Lord and yes of course I will do it.
