# 47 2022 Dev. Prov. 2:6 The Lord gives wisdom! Read all of chapter two first. We invite you into God’s space, to read His Word, to think on and interact with. This is God’s story. How will it affect yours? All passages are taken from the NIV.
Proverbs 2:6 “for the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.”
Proverbs 2 “Moral Benefits of Wisdom.” Wisdom is a choice, it is available to all, we only have to listen and apply it to our lives.
Vs.1-8 “Store up my commands within you, turning your ear to wisdom” That is the secret, allow the knowledge of God into your heart, God gives wisdom, seek the Lord, look into His Word. “For the Lords gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.” That is the bottom line, wisdom comes to those who seek it earnestly. It comes down to choices. Be upright, walk upright, be just, be faithful.
Vs.9-11 “Then you will understand what is right and just and fair-every good path.” Wisdom, knowledge, discretion and understanding” will guard your life.
Vs.12-15 “Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men…” All of us are exposed to exploitation, exposed to dark ways, to those of perverse evil. It all looks so innocent, but Satan has a plan to trap us.
Vs.16-19 Wisdom will save you from the adulterous woman…” That is an issue today, insidious, all around us, it is a path to death that could lead to physical death and definitely to spiritual death. Stay on the path of life.
Vs.20-22 Is our goal and the result of wisdom: “Thus you will walk in the ways of the good and keep the the path of the righteous. “But the wicked will be cut off…”
Thanks be to God; He will keep us on the path of wisdom. Amen.
