Making decisions : Yes - But based on what ? (The power of Thruth)

On Sunday, January 11, 2026, Dr. Raoul Wafo spoke to us on the topic: The Power of Decision (see article here: The Power of Decision).

During this message, we came to understand just how important decisions are, since we are constantly faced with choices throughout our lives. A study conducted by Harvard University even states that our brains make thousands of decisions every day, whether small or significant.

However, in last Sunday’s message, two essential points were highlighted:

• The importance of having the right information when making a decision, and the danger of indecision
• Three key principles to integrate before making a decision : Not making decisions while angry, ensuring that our decisions are founded on the Word of God (the Truth, which is the focus of this Sunday, January 18, 2026) and surrounding ourselves with a destiny partner with whom we can submit our decision for counsel and discussion.

From all of this, it follows that while we must make decisions daily in our lives, those decisions must above all be framed within a clear boundary: the Word of God / the Truth.

Jesus is the Word.
Jesus is the Truth.
Therefore, the Word is the Truth.

In John 1:1 (NLT), we read:

“In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God ”.

We therefore understand that from the very beginning, Jesus was present when God the Father created all things. In fact, it was through Him that the process of creation was made possible, since He is the Word.

Now that this foundational principle is clear in our minds, how can we proceed practically in our decision-making process?

To do so, three complementary steps, to be followed progressively, are necessary, as explained by Rev. Danielle Wafo:

1. Read the Word of God

This involves developing a daily and personal discipline of reading the Holy Scriptures. God is our Creator, meaning that He holds the user manual for our lives. As His creations, how can we expect to function properly without knowing the content of our Creator’s manual?

2. Meditate on the Word and on our decisions with the help of the Holy Spirit

This exercise is quite subtle. While meditation is a universal necessity, the methods will differ from one person to another, and only the Holy Spirit can guide us on how to proceed. Nevertheless, it is worth noting that meditation consists of reflecting on why God wants us to do a particular thing. The second stage of this process is meditation on our personal decisions—taking a step back, reflecting, and analyzing before validating our choices with the help of the Holy Spirit.

3. Decide to put knowledge into practice

As Dr. Raoul Wafo rightly says:

“Knowledge without practice is nothing more than information.”
