Proverbs 17:27-28 (HCSB)
27 The intelligent person restrains his words, and one who keeps a cool head is a man of understanding.
28 Even a fool is considered wise when he keeps silent, discerning when he seals his lips.
Observation:
Today I woke up with wisdom on my mind. So, my meditation and my prayer this morning is that our heavenly Father would give us an abundance of wisdom in these difficult days.
The Word of God speaks to the topic of wisdom. So today let's seek God's face, and listen as He speaks to us through His Word, and by the Holy Spirit. If we listen, and obey I know that the result will be good for today, and for our future.
James 1:5 (HCSB)
5 Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously and without criticizing, and it will be given to him.
James 3:17 (HCSB)
17 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peace-loving, gentle, compliant, full of mercy and good fruits, without favoritism and hypocrisy.
There are times when we don't know what to do or say. In these situations the wisest thing we can do is to pray, and not say anything until we have heard from God.
Proverbs 17:28 (HCSB)
28 Even a fool is considered wise when he keeps silent, discerning when he seals his lips.
Job 13:5 (HCSB)
5 If only you would shut up and let that be your wisdom!
Prayer:
Father God, we exalt Your name, and give You the glory that You alone deserve.
Father, we ask that You would grant to us the wisdom that comes from above. Father, we need wisdom to know Your will, to understand Your will, and the obedience to do Your will. In the mighty name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
Isaiah 55:11 (KJV)
11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
