READ: Daniel 1:1-20
But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
Daniel 1:8
Daniel experienced many impossible situations and came out of each one through the wisdom of God. Daniel was an eunuch and a slave with no future, but through the wisdom of God he overcame the impossible situation. God sent His anointing to Daniel and gave him His wisdom. Daniel overcame the fact that he was an eunuch and became an outstanding personality in the king’s palace. He used the wisdom of God to overcome the impossible situation of being a helpless eunuch.
There are many impossible situations that you will face in your life and ministry. An impossible situation is one in which you cannot see any way out.
There was a little city, and few men within it; and there came a great king against it, and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it: Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man. Then said I, Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor man’s wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.
Ecclesiastes 9:14-16
In the story above, we see a city being besieged by a great king. The city had a few men in it and faced an impossible situation. Everyone in the city was doomed to die. How do you come out of such a situation?
Wisdom is the application of God’s word to impossible situations. Wisdom gives you the grace to overcome where others would have drowned.
