*VACANCY FOR THE PRUDENT*

*By Pastor E O Gabriel  20 July 2023*

SCRIPTURE: Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a Man discreet and Wise, and set him over the land of Egypt - *Genesis 41:33*

*We live in a world full of unemployment, but there will always be Vacancy for the Prudent.*

In our Text above, Joseph had just interpreted Pharaoh's dream, where God revealed to him seven Years of Plenty and seven Years of Famine. 

Joseph told Pharaoh to look for a Man who is Prudent, and able to manage the Abundance, so that the adverse effect of the seven Years of Famine will not be felt.

*Our world is in dire need of the Prudent, those who will maximise the use of our God given Resources, for the benefit of all and in all Seasons.*

*The Prudent is always conscious of the fact that no condition is Permanent and no opportunity will remain open for ever.*

*The Bible says, the Wise in heart shall be called Prudent* - *Proverbs 16:21*

*The Bible also says, the heart of the Prudent getteth Knowledge* - *Proverbs 18:15*

From these Scriptures, it is clear that Wisdom distinguishes the Prudent from others. 

But there are two Principal Sources of Wisdom - The Wisdom from Above and the Wisdom from beneath - *James 3:15-17*

The Prudent Joseph was talking about one whose Wisdom is from Above. 

The Bible says, he that cometh  from Above is above all - *John 3:31*

The Bible says, woe unto them that are Wise in their own eyes and Prudent in their own sight - *Isaiah 5:21*

Therefore, the Wisdom from Above, is the Strength of the Prudent, whose Relevance is for all Ages and Seasons.

*Prayer:*

Father, Please help me to acquire Knowledge that will make me Prudent in all matters.
