Ask for Wisdom
Wisdom & Discernment
Scripture
“Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart… that I may discern between good and bad.”
— 1 Kings 3:9 (KJV)
Reflection
Wisdom begins with reverence. 1 Kings 3:9 establishes it: "Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart……" To fear the Lord is to take Him seriously — His goodness, His holiness, His authority, His love. From that posture, wisdom grows. Today, before you make decisions or react to circumstances, pause and consider the Lord. A short prayer for wisdom can change the shape of an entire day. He gives generously to those who ask.
Prayer
God of all wisdom, quiet my mind enough to hear You. Let Your Word shape my decisions today. Amen.
