The word, "resolve," means to decide or to make up one's mind to do something. Such was the case of the wise steward parable that I shared with My listeners. The steward had wasted his master's goods, and his master decided to fire him. When this happened, the steward resolved what he should do.
The steward decided to go to his master's debtors and ask each one how much they owed. If they said that they owed 100 measures of wheat, the steward asked that debtor to write down that they only owed 50 measures. This is how the steward won the hearts of his master's debtors.
The master commended the unjust steward because he was worldly wise. I said that the children of this generation are wiser than the children of light. I made the point that no man can serve two maters. I want you to resolve to operate in the wisdom that comes from above instead of operating in worldly wisdom.
LUKE 16:1-13; JAMES 3:13-18
