Day 7 – 90 Days in Proverbs - That Woman!

Day 7 – That woman

Proverbs 1:20-33; 2:1-22  The rest of chapter one and all of chapter two in Proverbs provides a long discourse on the virtues and properties of wisdom, and the benefits of listening to and following “her”.

• She seeks you – Proverbs 1:20-21

• · She will mock you if you refuse her – Proverbs 1:24-28

• The benefits of listening and following her, which include:

o   Understanding – Proverbs 2:5, 9

o   Protection – Proverbs 2:11-12

o   Delivery from evil/evil ones – Proverbs 12, 16

Wisdom isn’t just about knowing stuff – that’s education. Wisdom is choosing the right, the obedient, actions. It begins with knowing God and His word intimately.

Godly wisdom should guide our thoughts to be more in line with God’s. It should guide our words to be full of love, patience, peace, comfort and hope. It should guide our actions toward service of others.

Sisters, I pray that you will make wisdom your best girlfriend and spend time with her (via God’s Word) every day. She will not gossip about you. She will not steer you wrong. She offers good advice, protection from sin and delivery from evil.

And, ultimately, you will be that wise woman yourself – you will become wisdom personified.

Prayer — All-wise God, please help me to be wise in all my thoughts, words and deeds. Place wisdom in my heart and mind through your word and the in-dwelling of your Holy Spirit. Let me led by her until I come to the place where personify her in every aspect of my life. In the name of my all-wise Savior I ask this. Amen

Your thoughts —
