Wisdom Prayer

Don’t be a Sluggard!

Don’t be a Sluggard!

I pray for wisdom for those who are dedic. In Jesus’ name, amen.

King Solomon uses an example of a creature that would normally be overlooked, and he turns the ant into a hero.

Proverbs 6:6-11 (ESV) compares industrious ants to a person who does not work hard.

“Go to the ant, O sluggard;
consider her ways, and be wise.
Without having any chief,
officer, or ruler,
she prepares her bread in summer
and gathers her food in harvest.
How long will you lie there, O sluggard?
When will you arise from your sleep?
A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest,
and poverty will come upon you like a robber,
and want like an armed man.”

Take what Solomon says to heart. Bring renewed discipline and dedication to your work. Learn from example, and note how well a small creature can be so productive.

Take action steps. Prevent poverty.
