Power On!Sample

What do you desire? What do you find yourself thinking about and setting your heart on?

Whatever it is, Solomon here says it doesn’t even compare with wisdom!

But how is wisdom found? The chapter uses words like “listen”, “hear”, “choose”, “watch”, “wait” and “find”; all action words implying a going after, of being intentional.

The pursuit is worth it because with wisdom are found success, strength, wealth, justice, joy and life! These are the things we often desire, but at the root of them all, and in charge of them all, is wisdom!

Rather than being distracted by your wants and needs, first go after wisdom. Pray for wisdom, and search His Word - which reveals His wisdom to us - and we will live the kind of life He wants us to lead! God is the ultimate source of wisdom, but He wants us to want it, to seek it.

Prayer:

Dear Lord, sorry for the times I ignored You and to go after my own agenda. Help me to prioritise Your ways and allow You to be the one in charge of my blessing. Amen.
