Do You Believe in Having Many Counselors?

Do You Believe in Having Many Counselors?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know that in the abundance of counselors there is victory. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Those who surround themselves with wise people can tap into their experience and background for information and guidance. This is especially true when the wise people have a firm foundation of faith based on God’s holy and inspired word.

Proverbs 24:3-7 (ESV) is about more than just building a house. It is about harnessing wisdom, understanding, and knowledge.

“By wisdom a house is built,
and by understanding it is established;
by knowledge the rooms are filled
with all precious and pleasant riches.
A wise man is full of strength,
and a man of knowledge enhances his might,
for by wise guidance you can wage your war,
and in abundance of counselors there is victory.
Wisdom is too high for a fool;
in the gate he does not open his mouth.”

Find wise people who will give you sound advice. Check and double check with other wise counselors, and then take action.

Why Is Wisdom Is Better Than Jewels?

Why Is Wisdom Is Better Than Jewels?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom because it is better than jewels. In Jesus’s name, amen.

Just how valuable is wisdom?

Scripture says, “Take instruction instead of silver, and knowledge rather than choice gold.”

King Solomon in Proverbs 8:6-11 (ESV) emphasizes wisdom’s value.

“Hear, for I will speak noble things,
and from my lips will come what is right,
for my mouth will utter truth;
wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
All the words of my mouth are righteous;
there is nothing twisted or crooked in them.
They are all straight to him who understands,
and right to those who find knowledge.
Take my instruction instead of silver,
and knowledge rather than choice gold,
for wisdom is better than jewels,
and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.”

Search the Bible for godly wisdom. Pray! Ask God to show you the way.

Trust, Incline, Hear, and Apply!

Trust, Incline, Hear, and Apply!

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who put their trust in you. In Jesus’ amen.

King Solomon reiterates a person should put their trust in the Lord.

Proverbs 22:17-19 (ESV) uses vivid language when telling readers what to do. “Incline.” “Hear.” and “Apply.” He also uses the words, “keep,” and “ready.”

“Incline your ear, and hear the words of the wise,
and apply your heart to my knowledge,
for it will be pleasant if you keep them within you,
if all of them are ready on your lips.
That your trust may be in the Lord,
I have made them known to you today, even to you.”

Decide to trust in the Lord. From now on, follow his ways as described in this section of Scripture.
