Love God Greatly - Walking in Wisdom

DAY 1 OF 40

WEEK 1 – THE SOURCE OF WISDOM SOAP – Proverbs 1:7 King Solomon, the wisest man in the world, writes this divinely inspired book of Proverbs to share the wisdom needed to guide our lives and to walk with God. It is amazing that this wisdom written thousands of years ago remains relevant today, transcending time, culture, and experience. God’s Word and truths remain the same… yesterday, today, and forever. So, believers can have great confidence in God as the foundation and source of all truth, knowledge, and wisdom. How much time do you invest in studying the Word of God? Do you spend an equal amount of time dedicated to living out the Word of God? How are you praying for God to faithfully increase your knowledge of Him so that you can grow in spiritual wisdom? A believer’s reverence, awe, and worship of God are the basis of all knowledge and wisdom. Father God, grant me wisdom, knowledge, and understanding, so that I can follow You faithfully. Lord, ignite my desire to know You more. Stir up my passion to learn Your ways and make that passion for You contagious amongst all that I encounter. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

You’ll be amazed at what God will reveal to you when you slow down to write or meditate on what you are reading!

What do you see in the verses you’re reading?
Who is the audience? Is there a repetition of words? What words stand out to you? What is the main lesson or theme?

A – APPLICATION
When God’s Word becomes personal
What is God saying to me today? How can I apply what I just read to my life? Are there any changes I need to make?

P – PRAYER
Pray God’s Word back to Him
If He has revealed something to you during this time in His Word, pray about it. Confess if He has revealed some sin that is in your life. Take time to thank Him for His goodness in your life.
