You Can Never Outgrow God: A Call to Continual Learning and Humble Wisdom

 

“A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels.”
—Proverbs 1:5 (KJV)

In a world that glorifies self-sufficiency and expertise, God calls His people to something radically different: continual dependence and humility before His Word. Proverbs 1:5 is not addressed to the foolish it is spoken to the wise. Even those seasoned in wisdom are told to listen and learn.

As I meditated on this passage, I was reminded of my father’s example. He never stopped learning. He constantly asked questions, sought insight, and refined his craft. His humility taught me that true wisdom is not in having all the answers, but in always being teachable.

This is exactly what Proverbs 1 reveals to us: wisdom is not static. It grows with the humble, it instructs the attentive, and it reveals itself to those who do not assume they already know.

You Can Preach for 50 Years and Still Learn Something New

It does not matter if you have preached for five decades, led thousands to Christ, or memorized entire books of Scripture. You still need the Holy Spirit to teach you anew every single day.

“The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.”
—Psalm 25:9 (KJV)

God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble (James 4:6). Those who approach the Bible thinking they’ve “mastered it” are in danger of becoming stagnant in the Spirit. God’s Word is living and active (Hebrews 4:12), and it speaks in fresh ways to those who listen with open hearts.

This principle applies in a prophetic generation like ours where understanding of Scripture must be dynamic and Spirit-led. As global crises unfold, as deception increases, as technology encroaches upon truth, we need wisdom from above, not recycled assumptions from below.

End-Time Urgency Demands Teachable Hearts

We are living in prophetic times. The escalation of wars, lawlessness, and spiritual deception is accelerating at an unprecedented rate. The wise must discern not only the signs but also God’s voice in the midst of them.

“But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.”
—Matthew 25:4 (KJV)

The parable of the ten virgins reminds us: not all who appear ready actually are. The wise were prepared because they were attentive and watchful. This generation needs believers who do not think they have arrived, but who remain alert, humble, and teachable.

You cannot afford to stop learning in this hour. To be wise in your own eyes is spiritual blindness.

“Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!”
—Isaiah 5:21 (KJV)

What Is God Showing You Today?

Let this be your daily question in prayer: “Lord, what are You teaching me today?”
There is always more. There are deeper revelations, hidden wisdom, and convicting truths waiting to be revealed.

“Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.”
—Jeremiah 33:3 (KJV)

Never stop listening. Never stop growing. Never stop seeking His wisdom. Let God show you something new something you need today.

A Call to Repentance

If pride has crept into your walk with God, if you’ve assumed you know enough or grown cold to correction, it’s time to repent. God is not finished teaching you. He is not done transforming you.

“Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves.”
—2 Corinthians 13:5 (KJV)

The wise do not cling to credentials they cling to Christ. Return to a posture of humility before the Lord, and ask Him to break up the hardness in your heart so that His truth can flow again.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ

All have sinned.

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.”
—Romans 3:23 (KJV)

Sin brings death.

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
—Romans 6:23 (KJV)

Jesus paid the price.

“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
—Romans 5:8 (KJV)

Confess and believe.

“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
—Romans 10:9 (KJV)

Final Thoughts

God’s Word is not a textbook to be mastered it is a living fountain to be revisited, daily and with reverence. You can never outgrow God. You can never outlearn Him. The greatest threat to spiritual growth is spiritual pride.

So ask yourself today:
Am I still teachable?
Am I still listening?
Am I still letting God show me new things?

May we never graduate from the school of the Spirit.
Because wisdom does not end it deepens. And God is still speaking.

Are you still learning?

💰 Digital Chains, Global Power & the Coming Beast System

The Prophetic Implications of AI, Blockchain, and the World Financial Reset 📖 "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark... And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark…” — Revelation 13:16–17 (KJV) A global transformation is underway—an economic, political, and technological realignment happening in plain sight. While the world debates left vs. right, East vs. West, and nation vs. nation, Scripture reveals that a singular world system is forming . Its aim? Absolute control of humanity. And the foundation of this control will be economic. The financial system that undergirds the current world order is being dismantled—and what rises in its place aligns with the prophesied Beast system foretold in Revelation 13. 🔁 From Gold Standard to Global Blockchain: The Setup The U.S. economic shift unfolded in the shadow of Nixon’s 1971 removal of the dollar from the gold standard.

From Fear to Freedom: How Trusting God Leads to Abundant Life

Introduction: Abundance Through Dependence   In a culture that exalts independence and self-reliance, the idea of finding life through dependence on God is foreign—even offensive. But in the Kingdom of God, the way up is down, the way to victory is surrender, and the way to life is death to self.   Jesus said:      “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”     ( John 10:10, KJV )   Yet this abundant life is not achieved by striving or control. It is experienced by learning to live in Him, through Him, and with Him—moment by moment, especially when life gets hard. Tough Times as Training Grounds for Intimacy   Our natural instinct is to avoid discomfort. But Scripture teaches us that trials are often the very means by which we grow in intimacy with God:      “It is good for me that I have been afflicted;     that I might learn thy statutes.”     ( Psalm 119:71, KJV )   Difficult seasons sharpen our spiritual senses. When life i...
