Ephesians 1:
15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;  17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,  19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,


DAY 13—Developing the Wisdom of One's Own Soul

 

We are ready for God’s advice. We can see that, if we are to have an effective life as a child of His Kingdom, we must have His wisdom at work in us. We learn this from Paul: the first thing for which we pray is for the spirit of wisdom. Now, we see that wisdom is first in the qualities that fit a person to reign. Of course, this comes after our lives have been touched and transformed by the grace of Christ Jesus.

Proverbs 4:7,8—Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour; when thou dost embrace her.

 FATHER, please make me into a wise person with my life in order. Help me to learn from my failures and mistakes. Cause me to grow in wisdom so that I not make more mistakes. Draw these I hold before You into wisdom. Help them learn from their mistakes so they can make steps toward getting their lives in order.

King Solomon Asks the Lord for an Understanding Heart—I Kings 3:5-15
