� A Word From The Publisher �“Sis...I’m sitting here on the runway inCharlotte...40 minutes away from myprivate meeting with a small group of mypartners. I am so tired, but oh the joy Ifeel when I see their faces and theirhunger for The Wisdom of God.” It was

hard to hear with the jet engines starting upbut my brother, Dr. Mike Murdock, went on to tell meabout one of the partners who, although went throughmany obstacles, was going to be there at themeeting...his thankfulness for her effort to pursue TheWisdom of God was fascinating. I was instantlyreminded of the little woman with the issue of blood forso many years who persevered...UNTIL.

Quitting is a normal in every Thought Parade...Itjust can NEVER be on The List of Options.

Although my brother is known for his FinancialAnointing...the underlying message in everything mybrother has ever taught me is...Quitting...is not anOption...ever. “Persevere. There is something to learnin every battle. LEARN...GROW...SUCCEED. WIN.”

Every Wisdom Key written in this book, will holdsome meaning for you. His Wisdom Keys work for melike directional signs...and they will for you. You willwant this book with you...every day.

Each Wisdom Key arrived through a Life-Lesson.Some were welcomed with great joy...some hit homewith heart-sinking realization...but ALL wereempowering and enlightening.

Why would someone write 1,001 Wisdom Keys...since hundreds of the good, the bad, the many painful

parts of life...are stored in each of these remarkable andmemorable Wisdom Keys?

Remember Jesus in His travels...He must needsgo through Samaria...am tired...should rest...maybeanother time...I don’t even belong there...but ooohhh thepain I feel...“I must go”...someone needs what Iknow...what I have discovered...what I have...who I am.

This book...is inspired with that same passion...thatsame revelation...that same anointing...that sameAssignment.

There are MANY NEEDS. These Wisdom Keys areANSWERS...answers to the many Questions bottled upinside each of us. Some of us are too tired to ask...toofaint to reach.

Jesus Went. And through Scriptures...Revelations...Life-Lessons...Wisdom Keys...Today, HE still appoints...assigns...and sends The Willing to Pursue...toProclaim...to Publish. Mike Murdock answered TheCall.

My precious brother, Dr. Mike Murdock, has givenhis life...to LEARN so that you will KNOW The Wisdomof God.God will always send you an Answer.1,001 Wisdom Keys of Mike Murdock, is a Vault

of Answers to Every Question you were unable to ask.When you read this book...Get Ready...Your Life

�1�MY 7 GREATEST DISCOVERIES

Wisdom Is The Ability To Recognize Difference; Honor Is TheWillingness To Reward Somebody For Their Difference.

Everything On Earth Has A Different Value…Intended For A DifferentSeason…For A Different Outcome And Reward.

In This Life-Changing Revelation, Dr. Murdock Reveals The StepsNecessary For Developing A Life With The Holy Spirit, A Keen Awareness ofYour Distinctive Assignment On The Earth And The Law of The Seed ThatUnlocks Your Financial Provision.

You Will Review This Study Over And Over And Be Forever Changed! 1. Every Problem In Your Life Is Always A WisdomProblem. “So that thou incline thine ear unto Wisdom, and apply thineheart to understanding. For the Lord giveth Wisdom: out of his mouthcometh knowledge and understanding,” (Proverbs 2:2, 6). “Wisdom is theprincipal thing; therefore get Wisdom: and with all thy getting getunderstanding,” (Proverbs 4:7). “For Wisdom is a defence, and money is adefence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that Wisdom giveth life to themthat have it,” (Ecclesiastes 7:12). “If any of you lack Wisdom, let him ask ofGod, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be givenhim,” (James 1:5). “But the Wisdom that is from above is first pure, thenpeaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits,without partiality, and without hypocrisy,” (James 3:17).2. The Most Important Thing You Can Do In Life IsHonor The Holy Spirit. “And I will pray the Father, and He shall giveyou another Comforter, that He may abide with you for ever; Even the Spiritof truth; Whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth Him not, neitherknoweth Him: but ye know Him; for He dwelleth with you, and shall be inyou,” (John 14:16-17). “Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He willguide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever Heshall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come,” (John16:13). “And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour outof My Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams,”(Acts 2:17). “And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him, the Spirit ofWisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit ofknowledge and of the fear of the Lord,” (Isaiah 11:2). “The Spirit of the Lord

- 163 -

God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me,” (Isaiah 61:1).3. God’s Only Pain Is To Be Doubted, His Only PleasureIs To Be Believed. “God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the sonof man, that He should repent: hath He said, and shall He not do it? or hath Hespoken, and shall He not make it good?” (Numbers 23:19). “But He waswounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: thechastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed,”(Isaiah 53:5). “And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, yeshall receive,” (Matthew 21:22). “Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe,all things are possible to him that believeth,” (Mark 9:23). “Therefore I sayunto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receivethem, and ye shall have them,” (Mark 11:24). “But without faith it isimpossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is,and that He is a Rewarder of them that diligently seek Him,” (Hebrews 11:6).4. What You Make Happen For Others, God Will MakeHappen For You. “Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth,the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free,” (Ephesians6:8). “Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days.In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: forthou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether theyboth shall be alike good,” (Ecclesiastes 11:1, 6). “Give, and it shall be givenunto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and runningover, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye metewithal it shall be measured to you again,” (Luke 6:38). “Be not deceived; Godis not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. And letus not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not,”(Galatians 6:7, 9).5. The Size of Your Enemy Decides The Size of TheRewards. “But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak;then I will be an Enemy unto thine enemies, and an Adversary unto thineadversaries,” (Exodus 23:22). “Thou through Thy commandments hast mademe wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me,” (Psalm 119:98). “Andthe men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that is come up? surely to defyIsrael is he come up: and it shall be, that the man who killeth him, the king willenrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make hisfather’s house free in Israel. And David spake to the men that stood by him,saying, What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and takethaway the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that

he should defy the armies of the living God? And the people answered himafter this manner, saying, So shall it be done to the man that killeth him,” (1Samuel 17:25-27). “On that day did the king Ahasuerus give the house ofHaman the Jews’ enemy unto Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before theking; for Esther had told what he was unto her. And the king took off his ring,which he had taken from Haman, and gave it unto Mordecai. And Esther setMordecai over the house of Haman,” (Esther 8:1-2).6. Your Rewards Are Decided By The Problems YouChoose To Solve For Others. “He becometh poor that dealeth witha slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich. He that gathereth insummer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causethshame,” (Proverbs 10:4-5). “The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but theslothful shall be under tribute. The slothful man roasteth not that which hetook in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is precious,” (Proverbs12:24, 27). “The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soulof the diligent shall be made fat,” (Proverbs 13:4). “Seest thou a man diligentin his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before meanmen,” (Proverbs 22:29). “Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thymight; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor Wisdom, in thegrave, whither thou goest,” (Ecclesiastes 9:10).7. An Uncommon Seed Always Creates An UncommonHarvest. “Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the firstfruits ofall thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy pressesshall burst out with new wine,” (Proverbs 3:9-10). “But this I say, He whichsoweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifullyshall reap also bountifully,” (2 Corinthians 9:6). “While the earth remaineth,seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and dayand night shall not cease,” (Genesis 8:22). “And the king went to Gibeon tosacrifice there; for that was the great high place: a thousand burnt offeringsdid Solomon offer upon that altar. In Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomonin a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee,” (1 Kings 3:4-5). “And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he,and her house, did eat many days,” (1 Kings 17:15). “And He called unto HimHis disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widowhath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury: For all theydid cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had,even all her living,” (Mark 12:43-44).

For thevision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie:though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry,”(Habakkuk 2:2-3). “For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth notdown first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?”(Luke 14:28).2. Divine Approval of Your Dreams And GoalsGuarantees Divine Participation. “And his master saw that theLord was with him, and that the Lord made all that he did to prosper in hishand. But the Lord was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave himfavour in the sight of the keeper of the prison. The keeper of the prison lookednot to any thing that was under his hand; because the Lord was with him, andthat which he did, the Lord made it to prosper,” (Genesis 39:3, 21, 23). “Exceptthe Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lordkeep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain,” (Psalm 127:1). “In all thyways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thineown eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil,” (Proverbs 3:6-7).3.

thyself also in the Lord; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart,”(Psalm 37:4).4. Set Up Deadlines To Create A Collection of Successes.“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under theHeaven: I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked:for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work,” (Ecclesiastes3:1, 17). “Walk in Wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time,”(Colossians 4:5). “Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. Forwhat is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and thenvanisheth away,” (James 4:14).5. Pursuit Reveals True Passion. “And ye shall seek Me, and findMe, when ye shall search for Me with all your heart,” (Jeremiah 29:13). “Ask,and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be openedunto you,” (Matthew 7:7). “I have fought a good fight, I have finished mycourse, I have kept the faith,” (2 Timothy 4:7).6. Uncommon Goals Will Require The Nurturing ofUncommon Relationships. “Without counsel purposes aredisappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established,”(Proverbs 15:22). “Two are better than one; because they have a good rewardfor their labour,” (Ecclesiastes 4:9). “Can two walk together, except they beagreed?” (Amos 3:3). “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man laydown his life for his friends,” (John 15:13).7. Keep The Spirit of A Finisher. “Thus the Heavens and the earthwere finished, and all the host of them,” (Genesis 2:1). “Thus was all the workof the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation finished...So Moses finishedthe work,” (Exodus 39:32; 40:33). “So Solomon built the house, and finishedit. Thus Solomon finished the house of the Lord, and the king’s house,” (1Kings 6:14; 2 Chronicles 7:11). “I have glorified Thee on the earth: I havefinished the work which Thou gavest Me to do,” (John 17:4). “I have fought agood fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith,” (2 Timothy 4:7).

�3�7 REWARDS OFADVERSITY

Anything Good Is Hated By Everything Evil.Warfare Always Surrounds The Birth of A Miracle. Struggle Is The Proof

You Have Not Yet Been Conquered. This incredible study will answer questionsyou have asked your entire Lifetime..! 1. Adversity Is An Opportunity For God To PubliclyEndorse You Supernaturally. “Then Nebuchadnezzar the king wasastonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Didnot we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered andsaid unto the king, True, O king. He answered and said, Lo, I see four menloose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form ofthe fourth is like the Son of God,” (Daniel 3:24-25). “My God hath sent Hisangel, and hath shut the lions’ mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuchas before Him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, haveI done no hurt. Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and commandedthat they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out ofthe den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed inhis God,” (Daniel 6:22-23). “And he shook off the beast into the fire, and feltno harm. Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen downdead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm cometo him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god,” (Acts 28:5-6).2. Adversity Exposes Disloyal And UntrustworthyRelationships. “And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart,she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once,for he hath shewed me all his heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came upunto her, and brought money in their hand. But the Philistines took him, andput out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fettersof brass; and he did grind in the prison house,” (Judges 16:18, 21). “Then saidthey unto him, What shall we do unto thee, that the sea may be calm unto us?for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous. And he said unto them, Take meup, and cast me forth into the sea; so shall the sea be calm unto you: for Iknow that for my sake this great tempest is upon you. So they took up Jonah,

and cast him forth into the sea: and the sea ceased from her raging,” (Jonah1:11-12, 15). 3. Adversity Is The Magnet For Bringing Good PeopleInto Your Life. “And it came to pass, when he had made an end ofspeaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David,and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. And Saul took him that day, andwould let him go no more home to his father’s house. Then Jonathan andDavid made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul,” (1 Samuel18:1-3). “And Saul spake to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that theyshould kill David. But Jonathan Saul’s son delighted much in David: andJonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee: now therefore,I pray thee, take heed to thyself until the morning, and abide in a secret place,and hide thyself,” (1 Samuel 19:1-2). “Arise, get thee to Zarephath, whichbelongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widowwoman there to sustain thee. And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do asthou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me,and after make for thee and for thy son. For thus saith the Lord God of Israel,The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until theday that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth. And she went and didaccording to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat manydays,” (1 Kings 17:9, 13-15).4. Adversity Develops An Addiction And TotalDependency To The Voice of God. “Before I was afflicted I wentastray: but now have I kept Thy word,” (Psalm 119:67). “Unless Thy law hadbeen my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction,” (Psalm119:92). “As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul afterThee, O God,” (Psalm 42:1).5. Adversity Increases Your Attention To Details AndAccuracy. “In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversityconsider: God also hath set the one over against the other, to the end that manshould find nothing after him,” (Ecclesiastes 7:14). “So teach us to number ourdays, that we may apply our hearts unto Wisdom,” (Psalm 90:12). 6.

And they built the high places of Baal, whichare in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughtersto pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neithercame it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judahto sin,” (Jeremiah 32:32, 35).2. Anyone Who Dishonors The Divine Focus God HasChosen For Your Life. “And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it hisbrethren: and they hated him yet the more,” (Genesis 37:5). “After these thingsJesus walked in Galilee: for He would not walk in Jewry, because the Jewssought to kill Him,” (John 7:1). “And as the ark of the Lord came into the cityof David, Michal Saul’s daughter looked through a window, and saw kingDavid leaping and dancing before the Lord; and she despised him in herheart,” (2 Samuel 6:16). “Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: theLord reward him according to his works: Of whom be thou ware also; for hehath greatly withstood our words,” (2 Timothy 4:14-15).3.

loved this present world,” (2 Timothy 4:10). “But Jesus said unto him, Judas,betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?” (Luke 22:48). “And Saul cast thejavelin; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall with it,” (1 Samuel18:11).4. Anyone Who Is Jealous of Your Position, Popularityor Prosperity. “Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt notcovet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor hisox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s,” (Exodus 20:17). “AndAhab spake unto Naboth, saying, Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it fora garden of herbs, because it is near unto my house: and I will give thee for ita better vineyard than it; or, if it seem good to thee, I will give thee the worthof it in money. And Naboth said to Ahab, The Lord forbid it me, that I shouldgive the inheritance of my fathers unto thee. And Jezebel his wife said untohim, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? arise, and eat bread, andlet thine heart be merry: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite,”(1 Kings 21:2-3, 7). “Let your conversation be without covetousness; and becontent with such things as ye have,” (Hebrews 13:5).5. Anyone Who Justifies The Conduct of Your Enemies.“And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for theyfeared the people. Then entered satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being ofthe number of the twelve. And he went his way, and communed with the chiefpriests and captains, how he might betray Him unto them,” (Luke 22:2-4).“Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread,hath lifted up his heel against me,” (Psalm 41:9). “The Son of man goeth as itis written of Him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man isbetrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born,” (Matthew26:24).6.

in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come topass; he shall have whatsoever he saith,” (Mark 11:23).7. Anyone Who Destroys Your Expectations. “But the menthat went up with him said,We be not able to go up against the people; forthey are stronger than we. And they brought up an evil report of the landwhich they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, throughwhich we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitantsthereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature. Andthere we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and wewere in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight,”(Numbers 13:31-33). “Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, whichto day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clotheyou, O ye of little faith?” (Matthew 6:30). “And He saith unto them,Why are yefearful, O ye of little faith? Then He arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea;and there was a great calm,” (Matthew 8:26). “Which when Jesus perceived,He said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves,because ye have brought no bread?” (Matthew 16:8).

�5�7 THINGS MONEY CANNOT BUY

Money Is A Beautiful Gift You Receive When You Solve A Problem ForSomeone.

It is necessary and important when you want to accomplish uncommongoals. However, millionaires have committed suicide, disheartened by lostlove and unspeakable depression. Money is an answer to many problems weface. Yet, the Bible is very clear about 7 things money cannot purchase. Thisstudy could release unspeakable joy when embraced and believed..! 1. Anointing. “And when Simon saw that through laying on of theapostles’ hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, hemay receive the Holy Ghost. But Peter said unto him, Thy money perishwith thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may bepurchased with money,” (Acts 8:18-20). “And it shall come to pass inthat day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, andhis yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because ofthe anointing,” (Isaiah 10:27). “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,because He hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; He hathsent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to thecaptives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them thatare bruised,” (Luke 4:18). “But the anointing which ye have received ofHim abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as thesame anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie,and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in Him,” (1 John 2:27).2. Forgiveness. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and thatnot of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man shouldboast,” (Ephesians 2:8-9). “If we confess our sins, He is faithful andjust to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness,”(1 John 1:9). “For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; andplenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon Thee,” (Psalm 86:5).“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shaltbelieve in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thoushalt be saved,” (Romans 10:9).

3. Health. “Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and departfrom evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones,”(Proverbs 3:7-8). “My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear untomy sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in themidst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, andhealth to all their flesh,” (Proverbs 4:20-22). “For I will restore healthunto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the Lord; becausethey called thee an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seekethafter,” (Jeremiah 30:17). “Beloved, I wish above all things that thoumayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth,” (3 John2).4. Life Itself. “For whoso findeth Me findeth life, and shall obtainfavour of the Lord,” (Proverbs 8:35). “No man can serve two masters:for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will holdto the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat,or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Isnot the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Which of youby taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature,” (Matthew 6:24-25, 27). “And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware ofcovetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of thethings which he possesseth. But God said unto him, Thou fool, thisnight thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those thingsbe, which thou hast provided? So is he that layeth up treasure forhimself, and is not rich toward God,” (Luke 12:15, 20-21). 5. Trustworthy Love. “And hope maketh not ashamed; because thelove of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is givenunto us,” (Romans 5:5). “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,” (Galatians 5:22). “Many waterscannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give allthe substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned,” (Song ofSolomon 8:7).6. Peace. “I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Lord,only makest me dwell in safety,” (Psalm 4:8). “Great peace have theywhich love Thy law: and nothing shall offend them,” (Psalm 119:165).

Wherefore do ye spend money for that whichis not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearkendiligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your souldelight itself in fatness,” (Isaiah 55:1-2). “Peace I leave with you, Mypeace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let notyour heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid,” (John 14:27). “Then hesaid, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to myfather’s house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them,lest they also come into this place of torment,” (Luke 16:27-28).7. Lost Opportunities. “Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently forHim: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way,because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass,” (Psalm37:7). “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and Hedelighteth in his way,” (Psalm 37:23). “And I will restore to you theyears that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller,and the palmerworm, My great army which I sent among you,” (Joel 2:25).

KNOWABOUT EVIL PEOPLEHas Destructive Behavior In Others Disturbed Your Heart?Do you nurture an inner fear that someone will hurt you? Many

humans are inhabited by demon spirits. The proof of demonicpresence is the passion to destroy another. This study will unlock yourability to discern evil in others and build a system of protection..!1. Evil People Exist. “But the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul,and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him. And it came to pass, when theevil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played withhis hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departedfrom him,” (1 Samuel 16:14, 23). “And it came to pass on the morrow, thatthe evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of thehouse: and David played with his hand, as at other times: and there was ajavelin in Saul’s hand. And Saul cast the javelin; for he said, I will smite Davideven to the wall with it. And David avoided out of his presence twice,” (1Samuel 18:10-11). “Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves:be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves,” (Matthew 10:16).2. God Commanded Us To Hate Evil. “Ye that love the Lord, hateevil,” (Psalm 97:10). “The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy,and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate,” (Proverbs 8:13). “Fleealso youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with themthat call on the Lord out of a pure heart,” (2 Timothy 2:22). “Then ye shalldrive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all theirpictures, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all theirhigh places,” (Numbers 33:52). 3. Demons Know The Environment That They Can BePermitted To Express Themselves. “And it came to pass, as wewent to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us,which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: The same followed Pauland us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, whichshew unto us the way of salvation. And this did she many days. But Paul, beinggrieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christto come out of her. And he came out the same hour,” (Acts 16:16-18).4. Demon Spirits Despise The Presence of God. “And whenHe was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met

Him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, sothat no man might pass by that way. And, behold, they cried out, saying, Whathave we to do with Thee, Jesus, Thou Son of God? art Thou come hither totorment us before the time?” (Matthew 8:28-29). “And it came to pass, whenthe evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and playedwith his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departedfrom him,” (1 Samuel 16:23). “When the even was come, they brought untohim many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with hisword, and healed all that were sick,” (Matthew 8:16). “Ye are of God, littlechildren, and have overcome them: because greater is He that is in you, thanhe that is in the world,” (1 John 4:4). 5. Evil Must Be Exposed...Eliminated...Confronted. “Woeunto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whitedsepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of deadmen’s bones, and of all uncleanness. Even so ye also outwardly appearrighteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity,”(Matthew 23:27-28). “Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lordreward him according to his works: Of whom be thou ware also; for he hathgreatly withstood our words,” (2 Timothy 4:14-15). “For Demas hath forsakenme, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica;Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia,” (2 Timothy 4:10). 6. Increase Your Consciousness of Evil In TheEnvironment. “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but againstprincipalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world,against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you thewhole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, andhaving done all, to stand,” (Ephesians 6:12-13). “The thief cometh not, butfor to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, andthat they might have it more abundantly,” (John 10:10). “…in the last daysperilous times shall come,” (2 Timothy 3:1). “Lest satan should get anadvantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices,” (2 Corinthians 2:11).7. Evil People Increase When Uncontested. “But mineenemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully aremultiplied,” (Psalm 38:19). “Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth,”(Psalm 140:11). “A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump,” (Galatians 5:9). “Benot deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners,” (1 Corinthians 15:33).

transference of information. It is impartation. It is learning through the pain ofanother. The Protégé and the Mentor are not equal.

The whole Bible is aboutMentorship. There are seven milestones that the Protégé will experience. Thisfascinating study on Mentorship will catapult you to a new level of learning..!1. Potential In Relationship. God Does Not Look At Your Past ToDecide Your Future. “And when He was gone forth into the way, there came onerunning, and kneeled to Him, and asked Him, Good Master, what shall I dothat I may inherit eternal life? And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou Megood? there is none good but One, that is, God. Thou knowest thecommandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do notbear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother. And heanswered and said unto Him, Master, all these have I observed from my youth.Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thoulackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thoushalt have treasure in Heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow Me.And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had greatpossessions. And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto His disciples, Howhardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!” (Mark10:17-23).2. Planning. “And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do tobe saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt besaved, and thy house,” (Acts 16:30-31). “And he said, Thou hast asked a hardthing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be sounto thee; but if not, it shall not be so,” (2 Kings 2:10). “And Ruth said, Intreatme not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thougoest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be mypeople, and thy God my God: Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be

Patience. “The Lord is good unto them that wait for Him, to the soulthat seeketh Him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait forthe salvation of the Lord,” (Lamentations 3:25-26). “Wait on the Lord: be ofgood courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord,”(Psalm 27:14).4. Problem-Solving. “And when the day was now far spent, Hisdisciples came unto Him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the timeis far passed: Send them away, that they may go into the country round about,and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto Him,Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat?He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when theyknew, they say, Five, and two fishes. And He commanded them to make all sitdown by companies upon the green grass. And they sat down in ranks, byhundreds, and by fifties. And when He had taken the five loaves and the twofishes, He looked up to Heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gavethem to His disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he amongthem all. And they did all eat, and were filled. And they took up twelve basketsfull of the fragments, and of the fishes. And they that did eat of the loaveswere about five thousand men,” (Mark 6:35-44).5. Protocol. “And the men of David said unto him, Behold the day ofwhich the Lord said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thinehand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good unto thee. Then Davidarose, and cut off the skirt of Saul’s robe privily. And it came to pass afterward,that David’s heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul’s skirt. And he saidunto his men, The Lord forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, theLord’s anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is theanointed of the Lord. So David stayed his servants with these words, andsuffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose up out of the cave, andwent on his way. David also arose afterward, and went out of the cave, and

Power Transference. “And the Lord said unto Moses, Take theeJoshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand uponhim; And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation;and give him a charge in their sight. And thou shalt put some of thine honourupon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the Lordcommanded by the hand of Moses,” (Numbers 27:18-20, 23). “And Joshua theson of Nun was full of the spirit of Wisdom; for Moses had laid his handsupon him: and the children of Israel hearkened unto him, and did as the Lordcommanded Moses,” (Deuteronomy 34:9). “And the sons of the prophets thatwere at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that theLord will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he said, Yea, I knowit; hold ye your peace. And Elijah said unto him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee;for the Lord hath sent me to Jericho. And he said, As the Lord liveth, and as thysoul liveth, I will not leave thee,” (2 Kings 2:3-4).

Ignored protocol can destroy Favor and lifetime relationships.This study will eliminate many seasons of pain in your life..!1. Protocol Is The Acceptable And Appropriate ConductIn A Specific Environment. “When I was a child, I spake as a child,I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I putaway childish things,” (1 Corinthians 13:11). “But take heed lest by any meansthis liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while theworld standeth, lest I make my brother to offend,” (1 Corinthians 8:9, 13).“And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passionswith you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto theliving God, which made Heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things thatare therein: Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways,”(Acts 14:15-16). “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purposeunder the Heaven,” (Ecclesiastes 3:1).2. The Holy Spirit Has Established A Protocol ForEntering His Presence. “O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let usmake a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before Hispresence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto Him with psalms,”(Psalm 95:1-2). “Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courtswith praise: be thankful unto Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good;His mercy is everlasting; and His truth endureth to all generations,” (Psalm100:4-5). “Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in Hisholy place?

Are Part of Spirit Protocol. “Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel:for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and tochasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thywords,” (Daniel 10:12). “But I say unto you, That every idle word that menshall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thywords thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned,”(Matthew 12:36-37). “Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and theopening of my lips shall be right things. For my mouth shall speak truth; andwickedness is an abomination to my lips. All the words of my mouth are inrighteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them,” (Proverbs 8:6-8).4. Protocol Is Important In The Presence of UncommonLeaders. “Righteous lips are the delight of kings; and they love him thatspeaketh right,” (Proverbs 16:13). “And put a knife to thy throat, if thou be aman given to appetite,” (Proverbs 23:2). “Put not forth thyself in the presenceof the king, and stand not in the place of great men: For better it is that it besaid unto thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldest be put lower in thepresence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen,” (Proverbs 25:6-7).5. Assess An Environment Before You Attempt ToChange It or Alter It. “Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know notwhat to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame,”(Proverbs 25:8). “How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every oneof you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath aninterpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. If any man speak in anunknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course;and let one interpret. But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence inthe church; and let him speak to himself, and to God. Let the prophets speaktwo or three, and let the other judge,” (1 Corinthians 14:26-29). 6. When You Enter The Comfort Zone of Another, Do NotIntroduce Discomfort. “For God is not the Author of confusion, butof peace, as in all churches of the saints,” (1 Corinthians 14:33). “Let all thingsbe done decently and in order,” (1 Corinthians 14:40). “If it be possible, asmuch as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men,” (Romans 12:18). “And theservant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach,patient,” (2 Timothy 2:24).

7. The Purpose of Protocol Is To Document Your RespectFor Others. “Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they broughthim hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved himself, and changed hisraiment, and came in unto Pharaoh,” (Genesis 41:14). “And I said unto theking, If it please the king, and if thy servant have found favour in thy sight, thatthou wouldest send me unto Judah, unto the city of my fathers’ sepulchres,that I may build it…And the king granted me, according to the good hand ofmy God upon me,” (Nehemiah 2:5, 8). “If I have found favour in the sight ofthe king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform myrequest, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare forthem, and I will do to morrow as the king hath said,” (Esther 5:8). “ThenEsther the queen answered and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, Oking, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and mypeople at my request,” (Esther 7:3).

Increase Is The Divine Reward For Obedience. “...I amcome that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly,”(John 10:10). “Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may bemeat in Mine house, and prove Me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if Iwill not open you the windows of Heaven, and pour you out a blessing, thatthere shall not be room enough to receive it,” (Malachi 3:10). “Then Isaacsowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and theLord blessed him,” (Genesis 26:12). “Though thy beginning was small, yetthy latter end should greatly increase,” (Job 8:7). “Thou shalt increase mygreatness, and comfort me on every side,” (Psalm 71:21). “…God gave theincrease,” (1 Corinthians 3:6).3.

(Matthew 25:26-27). “Now in the morning as He returned into the city, Hehungered. And when He saw a fig tree in the way, He came to it, and foundnothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on theehenceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away,” (Matthew21:18-19). “And Jesus increased in Wisdom and stature, and in favour withGod and man,” (Luke 2:52).4.

And he said unto him, Well,thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thouauthority over ten cities.

Increase Comes Through Association AndRelationship. “I can do all things through Christ which strengthenethme,” (Philippians 4:13). “And it came to pass, when they were gone over, thatElijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken awayfrom thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit beupon me. And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thousee me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shallnot be so,” (2 Kings 2:9-10). “The Lord shall increase you more and more, youand your children,” (Psalm 115:14). “The Lord God of your fathers make youa thousand times so many more as ye are, and bless you, as He hath promisedyou,” (Deuteronomy 1:11).

�34�RENAMINGYOURMOMENTSAND

CHANGINGYOURWORLD

God Packages Everything In...Moments.Moments are Divine gifts...that must be unwrapped, discerned and

named. God saw the crucifixion as the birth of the Christian family, not theend of the Son of God. Your decision to rename your Moments of Crisis...asMoments of Promotion is very important. This study will change your worldforever..!1. Your Decision To Rename Your Moments Will DecideThe Quality of Your Life. “And the thing was very grievous inAbraham’s sight because of his son. And God said unto Abraham, Let it notbe grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman;in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shallthy seed be called,” (Genesis 21:11-12). “And she shall bring forth a Son, andthou shalt call His name Jesus: for He shall save His people from their sins,”(Matthew 1:21). “And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren: and hismother called his name Jabez , saying, Because I bare him with sorrow. AndJabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless meindeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and thatthou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God grantedhim that which he requested,” (1 Chronicles 4:9-10). “And Jonah began toenter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, andNineveh shall be overthrown. So the people of Nineveh believed God, andproclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to theleast of them,” (Jonah 3:4-5). “And God saw their works, that they turned fromtheir evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would dounto them; and he did it not,” (Jonah 3:10).2. God Has Authorized Us To Rename Things. “And out ofthe ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of theair; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: andwhatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof,”(Genesis 2:19). “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they thatlove it shall eat the fruit thereof,” (Proverbs 18:21).

Page 251: 1001 Wisdom Keys of Mike Murdock

3. A Crisis Moment Is Simply The Birthplace ForChange. “But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water:and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed. And the man of Godsaid, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick,and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim. Therefore said he, Take it up tothee. And he put out his hand, and took it,” (2 Kings 6:5-7). “And when theservant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an hostcompassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said untohim, Alas, my master! how shall we do? And he answered, Fear not: for theythat be with us are more than they that be with them. And Elisha prayed, andsaid, Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord openedthe eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full ofhorses and chariots of fire round about Elisha,” (2 Kings 6:15-17).4. What You Think Is A Conclusion Is Often A Beginning.“And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful ofmeal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering twosticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, anddie. And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but makeme thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for theeand for thy son. For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal shallnot waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendethrain upon the earth. And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah:and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days,” (1 Kings 17:12-15). “Andthere was a strife between the herdmen of Abram’s cattle and the herdmen ofLot’s cattle: and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the land. AndAbram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee,and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be brethren. Is not thewhole land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt takethe left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thou depart to the right hand,then I will go to the left. And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plainof Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before the Lord destroyedSodom and Gomorrah, even as the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt,as thou comest unto Zoar. Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan; and Lotjourneyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other. Abramdwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and

pitched his tent toward Sodom. And the Lord said unto Abram, after that Lotwas separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place wherethou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all theland which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever. And I willmake thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dustof the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered. Arise, walk through theland in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee,”(Genesis 13:7-12, 14-17).5. Nobody Else Sees What You Have Discerned In TheMoment. “And it came to pass, when their hearts were merry, that theysaid, Call for Samson, that he may make us sport. And they called for Samsonout of the prison house; and he made them sport: and they set him betweenthe pillars,” (Judges 16:25). “And Samson took hold of the two middle pillarsupon which the house stood, and on which it was borne up, of the one withhis right hand, and of the other with his left. And Samson said, Let me diewith the Philistines. And he bowed himself with all his might; and the housefell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the deadwhich he slew at his death were more than they which he slew in his life,”(Judges 16:29-30). “And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed onhim, saying, If Thou be Christ, save Thyself and us. But the other answeringrebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the samecondemnation? And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of ourdeeds: but this Man hath done nothing amiss. And he said unto Jesus, Lord,remember me when Thou comest into Thy kingdom.

Your Mind is so remarkable that all demonic powers arefocused on your Mind. This study will help increase your respect for theMind..!1.

And there we saw the giants, thesons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sightas grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight. And all thecongregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept thatnight. And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses andagainst Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would Godthat we had died in the land of Egypt! or would God we had died in thiswilderness!” (Numbers 13:32-14:2).2. Your Mind Continually Seeks Information AndMagnifies It. “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoeverthings are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure,whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if therebe any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things,which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: andthe God of peace shall be with you,” (Philippians 4:8-9). “Now therefore giveme this mountain, whereof the Lord spake in that day; for thou heardest inthat day how the Anakims were there, and that the cities were great andfenced: if so be the Lord will be with me, then I shall be able to drive them out,

as the Lord said,” (Joshua 14:12). “And they spake unto all the company ofthe children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it,is an exceeding good land. If the Lord delight in us, then He will bring us intothis land, and give it us; a land which floweth with milk and honey. Only rebelnot ye against the Lord, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they arebread for us: their defence is departed from them, and the Lord is with us:fear them not,” (Numbers 14:7-9).3. The Only Way You Can Change Your Life Is ThroughYour Mind. “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, thatye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which isyour reasonable service.

Your Mind Has An Incredible Ability To GatherInformation And To See The Difference. “Yea, if thou criestafter knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding; If thou seekest heras silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; Then shalt thouunderstand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God. For the Lordgiveth Wisdom: out of His mouth cometh knowledge and understanding,”(Proverbs 2:3-6). “But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not thisman of whom ye speak. And the second time the cock crew. And Peter calledto mind the word that Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crow twice, thoushalt deny Me thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept,” (Mark 14:71-72). “Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in nowise slay it: she is the mother thereof,” (1 Kings 3:27). “And when Gideonperceived that he was an angel of the Lord…,” (Judges 6:22). “And Eliperceived that the Lord had called the child,” (1 Samuel 3:8). “And Davidperceived that the Lord had established him king over Israel,” (2 Samuel 5:12).

�40�THE ENEMYWITHINYOU

Something Inside You May Be Deadlier Than Anything Around You.Doubt is the invisible adversary you must confront and defeat...to unleash

every Miracle God has promised you. The most dangerous voice in your lifeis the one that expresses doubt in God’s will…plan for your life. The greatesttragedy of doubt is that it instantly disqualifies you for greatness. This studywill unlock the conqueror hidden deep within you..!1. Doubt Enters Through Hearing OpinionsContradictory To The Word of God. “But though He had done somany miracles before them, yet they believed not on Him,” (John 12:37). “Sowe see that they could not enter in because of unbelief,” (Hebrews 3:19).“…they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched thescriptures daily, whether those things were so. Therefore many of thembelieved,” (Acts 17:11-12). “And these are they by the way side, where the wordis sown; but when they have heard, satan cometh immediately, and takethaway the word that was sown in their hearts…And the cares of this world, andthe deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke theword, and it becometh unfruitful,” (Mark 4:15, 19).2. Doubt Enters Through Discussing Memories of YourPersonal Failures. “And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, whichcome of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so wewere in their sight,” (Numbers 13:33). “Then said I, Ah, Lord God! behold, Icannot speak: for I am a child. But the Lord said unto me, Say not, I am achild: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I commandthee thou shalt speak,” (Jeremiah 1:6-7). “And he said unto him, Oh my Lord,wherewith shall I save Israel? behold, my family is poor in Manasseh, and I amthe least in my father’s house,” (Judges 6:15). “And he said, Who made thee aprince and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst theEgyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is known. Now whenPharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from theface of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and thatI should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?” (Exodus 2:14-15;3:11).

3. Doubt Enters By Wrong Friendships And AssociationsSpeaking Into Your Life. “And all the congregation lifted up theirvoice, and cried; and the people wept that night. And all the children of Israelmurmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation saidunto them, Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would Godwe had died in this wilderness,” (Numbers 14:1-2). “Yea, they turned backand tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel. They remembered notHis hand, nor the day when He delivered them from the enemy,” (Psalm 78:41-42). “Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners,” (1Corinthians 15:33). “Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evilheart of unbelief, in departing from the living God,” (Hebrews 3:12). “Andstraightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, Ibelieve; help thou mine unbelief,” (Mark 9:24).4. Doubt Is Replaced Easily With Faith…In ThePresence of God. “And these are they likewise which are sown on stonyground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it withgladness; And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time:afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake,immediately they are offended. And these are they which are sown amongthorns; such as hear the word, And the cares of this world, and thedeceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke theword, and it becometh unfruitful,” (Mark 4:16-19). “That they might set theirhope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments:And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation; ageneration that set not their heart aright, and whose spirit was not stedfastwith God,” (Psalm 78:7-8). “To whom shall I speak, and give warning, thatthey may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken:behold, the word of the Lord is unto them a reproach; they have no delight init,” (Jeremiah 6:10).5. Doubt Is Contagious. “Afterward He appeared unto the eleven asthey sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness ofheart, because they believed not them which had seen Him after He was risen,”(Mark 16:14). “And He did not many mighty works there because of theirunbelief,” (Matthew 13:58). “And He could there do no mighty work, save thatHe laid His hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. And He marvelled

because of their unbelief,” (Mark 6:5-6).6. Something You Keep Hearing Is Deciding What YouKeep Believing. “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by theword of God,” (Romans 10:17). “But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. Forhe that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed,”(James 1:6). “I have set the Lord always before me: because He is at my righthand, I shall not be moved,” (Psalm 16:8). “God is in the midst of her; she shallnot be moved,” (Psalm 46:5). “Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shallsustain thee: He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved,” (Psalm 55:22).“He only is my Rock and my Salvation; He is my Defence; I shall not be greatlymoved,” (Psalm 62:2).7. Doubt Enters By The Absence of Godly Men SpeakingInto Your Life. “How then shall they call on Him in Whom they have notbelieved? and how shall they believe in Him of Whom they have not heard?and how shall they hear without a preacher,” (Romans 10:14). “As soon asJesus heard the word that was spoken, He saith unto the ruler of thesynagogue, Be not afraid, only believe. And He suffered no man to follow Him,save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James,” (Mark 5:36-37). “Andthe Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, satan hath desired to have you, that hemay sift you as wheat: But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: andwhen thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren,” (Luke 22:31-32). “Jesussaid unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him thatbelieveth. And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said withtears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief,” (Mark 9:23-24).

The season is about to change in your life..! 1. Reaching. Your Passion For A Miracle Must Be StrongEnough To Reach For It Relentlessly. “And they came to Jericho:and as He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great number of people,blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging. Andwhen he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus,Thou Son of David, have mercy on me,” (Mark 10:46-47). “Ask, and it shall begiven you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: Forevery one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him thatknocketh it shall be opened,” (Matthew 7:7-8). “If a son shall ask bread of anyof you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for afish give him a serpent? Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: howmuch more shall your Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that askHim?” (Luke 11:11-13). “And a certain woman, which had an issue of bloodtwelve years, And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spentall that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, When shehad heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched His garment. Forshe said, If I may touch but His clothes, I shall be whole. And straightway thefountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she washealed of that plague,” (Mark 5:25-29).2. Agreement. You Need A Pleader, A Human IntercessorTo Stand In Agreement With You. “And it came to pass, when Goddestroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sentLot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in thewhich Lot dwelt,” (Genesis 19:29). “Peter therefore was kept in prison: butprayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him. And whenHerod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping

between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door keptthe prison. And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shinedin the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise upquickly. And his chains fell off from his hands,” (Acts 12:5-7). “And I sought for aman among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before Mefor the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none,” (Ezekiel 22:30).3. Capability. You Must Trust Someone Capable ofWorking Miracles. “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the HolyGhost and with power: Who went about doing good, and healing all that wereoppressed of the devil; for God was with Him,” (Acts 10:38). “And Jesuslooking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: forwith God all things are possible,” (Mark 10:27). “And she coming in thatinstant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of Him to all them thatlooked for redemption in Jerusalem,” (Luke 2:38). “Jesus said unto her, I amthe Resurrection, and the Life: he that believeth in Me, though he were dead,yet shall he live,” (John 11:25). “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and tokill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they mighthave it more abundantly,” (John 10:10). “And the angel answered and saidunto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, Which wascrucified. He is not here: for He is risen,” (Matthew 28:5-6). 4. Self-Confidence. You Must Believe In Your OwnWorthiness To Receive A Miracle. “…but the people that do knowtheir God shall be strong, and do exploits,” (Daniel 11:32). “For ye are boughtwith a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which areGod’s,” (1 Corinthians 6:20). “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, andin the power of His might,” (Ephesians 6:10). “For God so loved the world,that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shouldnot perish, but have everlasting life,” (John 3:16). “Who His own self bare oursins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live untorighteousness: by Whose stripes ye were healed,” (1 Peter 2:24). 5. Persuasion. You Must Have Confidence In TheCharacter of God. “But without faith it is impossible to please Him: forhe that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a Rewarder ofthem that diligently seek Him,” (Hebrews 11:6). “God is not a man, that Heshould lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, andshall He not do it? or hath He spoken, and shall He not make it good,”(Numbers 23:19). “Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in Thy presence is

fulness of joy; at Thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore,” (Psalm16:11). “The Lord is good unto them that wait for Him, to the soul that seekethHim,” (Lamentations 3:25). “But they that wait upon the Lord shall renewtheir strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, andnot be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint,” (Isaiah 40:31). 6. Obedience. You Must Accept And Complete AnyInstruction That Authorizes The Release of Your Miracle.“I must work the works of Him that sent Me, while it is day: the night cometh,when no man can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the Light of theworld. When He had thus spoken, He spat on the ground, and made clay ofthe spittle, and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, And saidunto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.)He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing,” (John 9:4-7). “AndElisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in the Jordan seventimes, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean. Thenwent he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to thesaying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of alittle child, and he was clean,” (2 Kings 5:10, 14). “And the Lord said untoJoshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, andthe mighty men of valour. And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, andgo round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days. And seven priestsshall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams’ horns: and the seventh dayye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with thetrumpets,” (Joshua 6:2-4). (See Joshua 6:15-16, 20.) 7. Expectation.

BRIDGE OFACCESSAll Gifts Come Through A Golden Door of Access.You will never be promoted…respected…or valued until somebody sees you.

God cannot change your life until He changes who you have access to. The secretof Access can change your world in 7 days..!1. Disrespect. “And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he wasgoing up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mockedhim, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head. Andhe turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of theLord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty andtwo children of them,” (2 Kings 2:23-24). “And they were offended in Him.But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his owncountry, and in his own house,” (Matthew 13:57). “Let as many servants as areunder the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the nameof God and His doctrine be not blasphemed. And they that have believingmasters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather dothem service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit.These things teach and exhort,” (1 Timothy 6:1-2).2. Disagreement. “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?”(Amos 3:3). “A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir upanger,” (Proverbs 15:1). “And when they agreed not among themselves, theydeparted,” (Acts 28:25). “And the contention was so sharp between them, thatthey departed asunder one from the other,” (Acts 15:39).3. Divisiveness. “Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischiefcontinually; he soweth discord. A false witness that speaketh lies, and he thatsoweth discord among brethren. A froward man soweth strife: and awhisperer separateth chief friends,” (Proverbs 6:14, 19; 16:28). “Now I beseechyou, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to thedoctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them,” (Romans 16:17). “Now theworks of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication,uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations,wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,” (Galatians 5:19-20).

4. Disappointment. “Confidence in an unfaithful man in time oftrouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint,” (Proverbs 25:19). “Whatcould have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it?wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forthwild grapes,” (Isaiah 5:4).5. Disinterest. “His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked andslothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather whereI have not strawed: And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness:there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth,” (Matthew 25:26, 30). “So thenbecause thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out ofMy mouth,” (Revelation 3:16). 6. Disruption. “Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so wherethere is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth,” (Proverbs 26:20). “Let nothing bedone through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteemother better than themselves,” (Philippians 2:3). “For where envying and strifeis, there is confusion and every evil work,” (James 3:16).7. Deception. “And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed thatno man deceive you,” (Matthew 24:4). “Let no man deceive you with vainwords: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the childrenof disobedience,” (Ephesians 5:6). “For there are many unruly and vain talkersand deceivers, specially they of the circumcision,” (Titus 1:10). “For there isnothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not beknown,” (Luke 12:2).

bread?” (Matthew 16:8). “But He, being full of compassion, forgave theiriniquity, and destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned He His anger away,and did not stir up all His wrath. For He remembered that they were but flesh;a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again,” (Psalm 78:38-39). “And Hecometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter,What, could ye not watch with Me one hour?

For I also am a man set under authority, having under mesoldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and hecometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. When Jesus heard thesethings, He marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the peoplethat followed Him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not inIsrael,” (Luke 7:6-9).

Endurance Earns Respect. It greatly diminishes the morale of an adverary. Endurance is a

temporary season just before victory. Endurance is a relentless Seed thatunlocks the Harvest of a Reward. Every warrior needs to understand thispowerful study..!1. God Is Continuously Evaluating Your Reactions. “But Isay unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall giveaccount thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt bejustified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned,” (Matthew 12:36-37).“For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, andcometh not again,” (Psalm 78:39). “…and before honour is humility,”(Proverbs 15:33). “And He saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither twomites. And He said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath castin more than they all: For all these have of their abundance cast in unto theofferings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had,”(Luke 21:2-4). “And it shall come to pass, that like as I have watched overthem, to pluck up, and to break down, and to throw down, and to destroy, andto afflict; so will I watch over them, to build, and to plant, saith theLord,”(Jeremiah 31:28). “And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me whenThou comest into Thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say untothee, To day shalt thou be with Me in paradise,” (Luke 23:42-43). “And, behold,I come quickly; and My reward is with Me, to give every man according ashis work shall be,” (Revelation 22:12).2. What God Has Done For Others He Will Do For You.“And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himselfwith all his might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the peoplethat were therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than theywhich he slew in his life,” (Judges 16:30). “Then said David to the Philistine,Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but Icome to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel,whom thou hast defied. And David put his hand in his bag, and took thencea stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone

sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth. So Davidprevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote thePhilistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, anddrew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith.And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled,” (1 Samuel17:45, 49-51). “Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness,obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, Quenched the violence offire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxedvaliant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. And these all, havingobtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: God havingprovided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be madeperfect,” (Hebrews 11:33-34, 39-40).3. Your Past Victories Are Proof That You AreUnstoppable. “There shall not any man be able to stand before thee allthe days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not failthee, nor forsake thee,” (Joshua 1:5). “And David said unto Saul, Thy servantkept his father’s sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb outof the flock: And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out ofhis mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, andsmote him, and slew him. Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: andthis uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defiedthe armies of the living God. David said moreover, The Lord that delivered meout of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver meout of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the Lordbe with thee,” (1 Samuel 17:34-37). 4. Your Focus Will Decide Your Feelings. “What time I amafraid, I will trust in Thee,” (Psalm 56:3). “Fear ye not, neither be afraid: havenot I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses.Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any,” (Isaiah 44:8).“Looking unto Jesus the Author and Finisher of our faith; Who for the joy thatwas set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set downat the right hand of the throne of God,” (Hebrews 12:2). “Brethren, I countnot myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting thosethings which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are

before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God inChrist Jesus,” (Philippians 3:13-14). 5. Nothing Is Ever As Bad As It First Appears. “And Jacobawaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the Lord is in this place; and Iknew it not,” (Genesis 28:16). “And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee,open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the youngman; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariotsof fire round about Elisha,” (2 Kings 6:17). “Then Nebuchadnezzar the kingwas astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors,Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answeredand said unto the king, True, O king. He answered and said, Lo, I see fourmen loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and theform of the fourth is like the Son of God,” (Daniel 3:24-25). “And the Lordturned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the Lord gaveJob twice as much as he had before,” (Job 42:10). 6. Quitting Does Not Improve Your Life. “Then Jezebel sent amessenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if Imake not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this time. Andwhen he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beersheba, whichbelongeth to Judah, and left his servant there. But he himself went a day’sjourney into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: andhe requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O Lord,take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers,” (1 Kings 19:2-4). “Butit displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry. And he prayed untothe Lord, and said, I pray thee, O Lord, was not this my saying, when I was yetin my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou arta gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, andrepentest thee of the evil. Therefore now, O Lord, take, I beseech thee, my lifefrom me; for it is better for me to die than to live,” (Jonah 4:1-3). “And let usnot be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not,”(Galatians 6:9). “For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again,”(Proverbs 24:16). “…greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world,”(1 John 4:4).7. Your Endurance Is The Seed That GuaranteesRecognition And Reward. “For a just man falleth seven times, and

riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief,” (Proverbs 24:16). “Butthey that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount upwith wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk,and not faint,” (Isaiah 40:31). “And ye shall be hated of all men for My name’ssake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved,” (Matthew 10:22). “Andlet us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faintnot,” (Galatians 6:9). “Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for whenhe is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised tothem that love Him,” (James 1:12). “He that overcometh shall inherit allthings; and I will be his God, and he shall be My son,” (Revelation 21:7).

But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may beperfect and entire, wanting nothing,” (James 1:3-4). “But let him ask in faith,nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven withthe wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thingof the Lord,” (James 1:6-7). “Confess your faults one to another, and pray onefor another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteousman availeth much. Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, andhe prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by thespace of three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the Heavengave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit,” (James 5:16-18).2.

And I will rebuke the devourer for yoursakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall yourvine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts,” (Malachi3:10-11). “But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his ownhouse, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel,” (1 Timothy 5:8).“The Lord God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more asye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you,” (Deuteronomy 1:11). “But heshall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, andsisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in theworld to come eternal life,” (Mark 10:30).

The Battle For Integrity. “There is none greater in this housethan I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou arthis wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?”(Genesis 39:9). “Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thineintegrity? curse God, and die. But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one ofthe foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God,and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips,” (Job 2:9-10). “For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knowethall things. Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidencetoward God,” (1 John 3:20-21). “The just man walketh in his integrity: hischildren are blessed after him,” (Proverbs 20:7). “A good name is rather to bechosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold,”(Proverbs 22:1). “Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause; anddeceive not with thy lips,” (Proverbs 24:28).6.

Andhow shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful arethe feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings ofgood things,” (Romans 10:14-15). “Not that we are sufficient of ourselves tothink any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; Who also hathmade us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit:for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life,” (2 Corinthians 3:5-6). “For Godis not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye haveshewed toward His name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and dominister,” (Hebrews 6:10). “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril,or sword? As it is written, For Thy sake we are killed all the day long; we areaccounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more thanconquerors through Him that loved us,” (Romans 8:35-37).

No doctrine could be more destructive. Your Decisions...Passion...Focus andMentorship can create change within 24 hours. Decisions Decide YourWealth...Your Health...Your Success. You are closer to radical change than youhave ever been..!1. Change What You Have Decided To Magnify. “But seek yefirst the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall beadded unto you,” (Matthew 6:33). “And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And He said,I am Jesus Whom thou persecutest. But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I haveappeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness bothof these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I willappear unto thee; Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, untowhom now I send thee, To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness tolight, and from the power of satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness ofsins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in Me,”(Acts 26:15-18). “For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while somecoveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves throughwith many sorrows,” (1 Timothy 6:10). “I am crucified with Christ: neverthelessI live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh Ilive by the faith of the Son of God, Who loved me, and gave Himself for me,”(Galatians 2:20). “…forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forthunto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of thehigh calling of God in Christ Jesus,” (Philippians 3:13-14).2. Decide Whose Favor Matters The Most. “There is none greaterin this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee,because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin againstGod? And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkenednot unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her,” (Genesis 39:9-10). “My son, forgetnot my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: For length of days, andlong life, and peace, shall they add to thee. Let not mercy and truth forsake thee:bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: So shalt thou findfavour and good understanding in the sight of God and man,” (Proverbs 3:1-4).3. Change The Music And Sounds In Your Environment.“And David spake to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren to be the

Page 301: 1001 Wisdom Keys of Mike Murdock

singers with instruments of musick, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding,by lifting up the voice with joy,” (1 Chronicles 15:16). “It came even to pass, as thetrumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praisingand thanking the Lord; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpetsand cymbals and instruments of musick, and praised the Lord, saying, For He isgood; for His mercy endureth for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud,even the house of the Lord,” (2 Chronicles 5:13). “And the priests waited on theiroffices: the Levites also with instruments of musick of the Lord, which David theking had made to praise the Lord, because His mercy endureth for ever, whenDavid praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded trumpets before them,and all Israel stood,” (2 Chronicles 7:6). 4. Enjoy The Little Things. “Better is an handful with quietness, thanboth the hands full with travail and vexation of spirit,” (Ecclesiastes 4:6). “Forwho hath despised the day of small things,” (Zechariah 4:10). “…thou hast beenfaithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities,” (Luke 19:17).5. Delegate Three Small Tasks To Others. “And Joshua the son ofNun sent out of Shittim two men to spy secretly,” (Joshua 2:1). “…He sent twoof His disciples,” (Matthew 11:2). “…the Lord appointed other seventy also, andsent them two and two,” (Luke 10:1). “…the same commit thou to faithful men,”(2 Timothy 2:2).6. Decide Three Things You Will Stop Doing. “To every thingthere is a season, and a time to every purpose under the Heaven,” (Ecclesiastes3:1). “When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought asa child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things,” (1 Corinthians13:11). “And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld notmy heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labour: and this was myportion of all my labour. Then I looked on all the works that my hands hadwrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanityand vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun,” (Ecclesiastes 2:10-11). “…this one thing I do,” (Philippians 3:13). 7. Pull The Trustworthy Close To You. “Discretion shall preservethee,” (Proverbs 2:11). “And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hathshewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art: Thou shalt beover my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only inthe throne will I be greater than thou,” (Genesis 41:39-40).

Abraham Made Every Conceivable Effort To AvoidConflict And Confrontation With Anyone, Godly orUngodly. “Is not the whole land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee,from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thoudepart to the right hand, then I will go to the left,” (Genesis 13:9). “AndAbraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and both ofthem made a covenant,” (Genesis 21:27). “And he said, Oh let not the Lord beangry, and I will speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there.And He said, I will not destroy it for ten’s sake,” (Genesis 18:32).

A PICTORIAL JOURNEY OFDR. MIKEMURDOCK

1. Preaching in Brazil, one of my most favorite places on earth where theministers have more love than any place I have ever been.2. Ministering for Dr. Lester Sumrall in the Holy Land…miss this great mentorof the faith.3. Speaking with a translator is one of the most difficult things I do—it isexhausting mentally, and so many things humorous to me cannot be spoken.Sometimes, I have said something that I think is quite humorous, that people laughwith me in the United States, only to find that overseas, nobody laughs but stares atme. That’s when I know nothing I am saying is making much sense. But…thegospel must be preached!4. Television ministering…is so very powerful. You can be in someone’s homewho would never dream of going into a church, yet they will listen to you explainlife principles in the privacy of their own environment. Satan is the prince of theair…and dreads every man or woman of God who dares to invest in worldevangelism through television. If there has ever been a time that we need to prayfor television ministries, it is today. It is satan’s number one target to silence.5. Many years ago, sitting here in my home with my dear mother…my bestfriend, favorite confidante…and the master mentor who unlocked a passion forlearning. I miss you Mother, too much to even discuss you…6. Preaching with an interpreter; it is never important what I say…but what thepeople remember. I do not speak for a reaction, I always speak for understanding.7. Singing at the piano on Trinity Broadcasting many years ago…it looks like Iwas about 33 years old…8. In the Masai village…150 miles from Nairobi. In my six trips to Kenya, Godhas placed a deep love and affection in my heart for the precious people there…Iopened up the first crusade in the Nairobi Christian Center for five weeks…with alongtime friend, missionary Morris Plotts.9. Holding one of my many birds I have owned…a beautiful pheasant. I loveanimals and have had so many different kinds here as pets in my home, the Africanlion, K.K.,…zebras…camels…monkeys…llamas…horses…dogs, etc.10. Dr. Jerry Grillo is one of the dearest friends God has put close to me. Hisrevelation on the Law of Favor is profound. His books have gone around the world.He is one of the Board Members of The Wisdom Center as well as Pastor of TheFavor Center in Hickory, North Carolina.11. Preaching in open air somewhere in the world…12. My father sharing his wonderful words of Wisdom with me.

13. My father, my older brother, John, Me and my baby brother, David,…God hasgiven me a precious family who believe in the calling on my life. My father is 92 yearsold today…and still prays with me each day, my brother, John, supports myministry and my brother, David, is still a part of our church family here at TheWisdom Center.14. Passion…comes quite easy to me. I could never invest a moment insomething I did not believe with all of my heart. To me, being right is moreimportant than anything on earth.15. Here I am in South Africa at our Mike Murdock Home of Hope…our specialplace for children…little boys whose mothers and fathers have died from AIDS.Because of the faithful giving of my partners, we are able to underwrite their life,their food, their medical, and this ministry is very impactful.16. I am somewhere in the world…my 62 years of life…43 years of ministry hasbrought me into over 100 countries of ministry.17. Talking to my precious mother and father…whose holy lives became apattern for my own persuasions. Daddy, thank you for your incredible life of prayerand focus on God; Mother, thank you for showing me that integrity would last longerthan any gift in our lives.18. Here I am sitting on the platform, talking to all the children during a serviceat The Wisdom Center that the Lord led me to found and pastor. My family here isvery important to me…that’s why I am always flying back home to be with myfamily every Sunday morning.19. I know that look…I must say that I study and scrutinize everything that getsclose to me; I have a great fear of being wrong and I have extremely painfulmemories of trusting wrong people. In my own life, 90 percent of all my pain hasbeen through…misplaced trust and deceptive people. I have often wondered whya man who loves God so much…could be so wrong about people. But, our focusoften blinds us. When you are totally focused on God, it is easy to overlook deceptionclose to you.20. Children are trusting…and that makes us incredibly responsible. I pray forthe children here at The Wisdom Center and others every single day…that Godwill guard them from every hand of violence, and expose every deceptive voice andtrap in their life. Children are gifts from God to us…what a responsibility!21. The laughing Mike…believe it or not, when I was a child my brothers andcousins called me “laughing boy”…because I laughed so much. Those days havechanged a little bit…I don’t know whether it is maturity, sorrow…or overwork!22. My dear father, tough, demanding and very obedient to the voice of The Holy

I once asked him, “What is the mostimportant thing there is in life?” He replied, “Knowing the voice of the Spirit.”23. Reading is reaching. I reach…every moment of my life into myenvironment…into people…to extract what I need. The Word of God has been myvery life. When I was 23 years old, I realized I could read the Bible through easilyevery 30 days…by simply reading 40 chapters a day. So I started reading the Biblethrough each month. It has made a radical difference in my deep persuasions. Thewords of God are strength…deposited into your spirit. Your strength will alwaysbe proportionate to your knowledge.24. Brazil has been one of the deepest pleasures of my life. The spiritual leadersin this country have opened their doors…their hearts…to receive what God hasput in my heart. I cannot thank them enough for their investment of love in my ownministry and the open doors.25. Seventeen years old…standing in front of the Calcasieu Tabernacle, wheremy father pastored. My sisters, Flo, Deborah and Kaydonna and my brother, DavidEarl. My little sister, Deborah, in the bottom right-hand corner…is my best friendtoday. I talk to her more than any human on the earth…and she is the reason I writeso many books. She tells me, “Babe, if you say it, I will print it and publish it and sendit around the world.” She works a solid 16 to 18 hours a day…non-stop out of herhome…orchestrating the printing of millions of books, every single letter,everything that God tells me. She puts it around the world. My precious and sweetSis, you are the genius in our family! My sister, Flo, works with me every day herein my home, watching over my personal world and my house duties…as she andher husband take care of my father and are one of the pastor couples heading TheWisdom Center here. She is a remarkable singer and musician, and truly loves thework of God.26. Loving people…is the Assignment of the believer. The only true DivineAssignment God has given each of us…is to love.27. Nigeria is filled with incredible loving people! I have been there manytimes…and am always amazed at the passion there is for knowledge! They will sitfor hours and hours while I teach The Word of God. This was with my longtimefriend Bishop Matthew Ashimolowo.28. My mother…my number one critic. I cannot say she was the best cheerleader,but she sure was my most effective mentor and never quit looking for opportunitiesto correct me!29. Two of my wolves that I raised from little puppies. Wolves seem a lot like dogs,but their nature is quite wild…and creative. So lovable. Reminds me of my fox

He is quite a builder as well as a full-time intercessor.I am holding a shovel…but it is for looks only.32.

What a passionate and precious man..!40. There is impartation…that spiritual mentors can impart to protégés, wholike Elijah, want a special touch from the Lord. I am humbled, and deeply reflectiveafter services where someone has sought a special prayer. When two of us pray,miracles happen. There is no doubt of this.41. One of our great meetings in the stadiums overseas..! What a privilege torepresent God on the earth! What an honor…to spend your entire life talking aboutThe Word of God and the Wisdom of God changing your life. I cannot think of anyjob, any company or any position…where there has been more opportunity tomake your life count. I am thinking right now as I look at this picture of the song Iwrote (my mother’s favorite) – “Make My Life Count, Lord! Make My Life Count!”Eternity will reveal…

He is a songwriter, author and excellentmusician. He is a little bit too good looking to be in the ministry I think! (Smile,Brother!) One of his greatest characteristics is his trustworthiness.
