Proverbs 1:23 
“If you respond to my warning, 
then I will pour out my spirit on you 
and teach you my words.” (CSB)

“Come and listen to my counsel. 
I’ll share my heart with you 
and make you wise.” (NLT)

“About face! I can revise your life.
Look, I’m ready to pour out my spirit on you;
I’m ready to tell you all I know.” (The Message)

One thing we don’t have nearly enough of these days is wisdom. Knowledge, facts, information, and artificial intelligence abound. Wisdom offers its assistance, but few invite it to sit at the table. 

Its omission is evident. 

Its inclusion is a no-brainer. It is readily available. It has been accumulated, stored up, inventoried, categorized, and made easily accessible. Daily applications are essential. Full strength is a good start. 

You, being wise as you are, already know there are thirty-one chapters in the Book of Proverbs in the Bible. You know it is tucked away neatly between Psalms and Ecclesiastes. You know you can read a chapter a day and learn a thing or two every day for the rest of your life. Imagine learning something new every day that makes you wiser, stronger, healthier, and simply all-‘round better. A proverb a day will do that. 

Listen to God’s invitation:

“Come and listen to my counsel. 
I’ll share my heart with you 
and make you wise.”

Ignorance is a choice. Wisdom is the much better option. 

Let’s get wise, guys.

I will listen to God’s wise heart each day and live what he teaches me.

Our Father, I need your wisdom. I know a lot of stuff. I have a lot of stuffing in my heart and mind. I need your wisdom to make it work right and to achieve the right outcomes. Give me a teachable spirit. Instruct me. Refine what I have captured and make it useful in all I do and become. Amen.

Daily D – John 6:47-51

John 6:47-51 “I tell you the truth, anyone who believes has eternal life. Yes, I am the bread of life! Your ancestors ate manna in the wilderness, but they all died. Anyone who eats the bread from heaven, however, will never die. I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Anyone who eats this bread will live forever; and this bread, which I will offer so the world may live, is my flesh.”

Daily D – Matthew 21:43-44

Matthew 21:43, 44 “I tell you, the Kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a nation that will produce the proper fruit. Anyone who stumbles over that stone will be broken to pieces, and it will crush anyone it falls on.”

Daily D – Matthew 21:12-15

Matthew 21:12-15 Jesus entered the Temple and began to drive out all the people buying and selling animals for sacrifice. He knocked over the tables of the money changers and the chairs of those selling doves. He said to them, “The Scriptures declare, ‘My Temple will be called a house of prayer,’ but you have turned it into a den of thieves!”

The blind and the lame came to him in the Temple, and he healed them. The leading priests and the teachers of religious law saw these wonderful miracles and heard even the children in the Temple shouting, “Praise God for the Son of David.”

But the leaders were indignant.

Daily D – Matthew 23:37

Matthew 23:37 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones God’s messengers! How often I have wanted to gather your children together as a hen protects her chicks beneath her wings, but you wouldn’t let me.”

Daily D – 1 Kings 22:4-5

1 Kings 22:4, 5 Then he turned to Jehoshaphat and asked, “Will you join me in battle to recover Ramoth-gilead?” Jehoshaphat replied to the king of Israel, “Why, of course! You and I are as one. My troops are your troops, and my horses are your horses.” Then Jehoshaphat added, “But first let’s find out what the Lord says.”
