The Basic Training Challenge – Prophets And Poetsعينة

## Day 7 — OJT ### Pray: Lord God, quiet my soul and open my mind and heart to receive Your Word. Amen. ### Read: Proverbs 1:1-33 ### Reflect Solomon was the son of David and the third king of Israel. During a dream, God offered Solomon anything he desired. Solomon responded by asking for the wisdom to lead God’s people. As a reward, in addition to great wisdom, God also gave him great power and wealth and his fame was known throughout the world. King Solomon wrote these proverbs to instruct us how to live a righteous life. He compares a life well-lived versus a life wasted. What does King Solomon say is the purpose of the book of Proverbs? If I obey God's wise instructions, what may I expect in my life? ### Respond Father, my intelligence cannot compare to Yours. Give me the wisdom to see Your plan for my life and help me to follow Your direction. Amen.
