“By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established” Proverbs 24:3, ESV.
Years ago, I cried out to God, “Lord, make me wise! I don’t want to be a foolish woman! I don’t want to be a foolish wife, a foolish mother, a foolish friend. Lord, I want to be wise!” I meant it with everything in me. How true it is when Scripture says, “Every wise woman builds her house, but a foolish woman tears it down with her own hands” (see Proverbs 14:1). I didn’t want to be the woman who destroys everything valuable to her because she doesn’t know how to control her emotions, control her tongue, or control herself. With God’s help, I knew I didn’t have to be that woman and, my sister, neither do you.
God is growing us in His wisdom. Psalm 51:6 says how He deposits His truth inward parts and makes us to know wisdom. He wants to show us His ways of doing things, His ways of responding to things, His ways of viewing things, processing emotions and interpreting situations. He wants to increase us more and more in His wisdom.
Prayer: Lord, make me a wise woman. I desperately want to be wise in every area of life. Help me not be foolish. Tearing down everything. Make me wise and efficient, self-controlled and diligent. Grow me up in you. I’m tired of making the same mistakes over and over again. Show me your ways of doing things. I love you and I want to experience more of you in my life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Amen congratulations on your book. Sister God bless you.
So much needed to hear this message today. The Lord has given me strength that I didn’t even know I had to be able to take care of my grandbabies that I love.. Lord I thank you for giving me the strength for without you. I couldn’t do anything. I continue to pray with all my heart with every fiber of my being to always keep my family my friends, my neighbors around the world to keep them in good health give them strength wisdom, I ask God to help me retain what he has taught me in my mind and my spirit. I’m grateful for everything that I have for. It wasn’t for the Lord. I would have nothing I would be nothing.. I am a child of God and I’m so thankful that he is carrying me through my journey., he has helped me continually through my life. He has saved my life over and over again. He has me here for a reason.. I asked the Lord for wisdom more wisdom than I have🙏 and I’m thankful that he has given me wisdom. Sometimes I stretch myself too thin, but I know that the Lord is always carrying me through.. for he is my Lord and my savior. I thank you so much Jesus and I love you with everything that I have in my heart deep within my heart you know every part of me..
