Wisdom- Proverbs 8:10-11

September 11 Wisdom- Proverbs 8:10-11
"Take my instruction instead of silver, and knowledge rather than choice gold, for wisdom is better than jewels and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.

Read one chapter of Proverbs every day to gain wisdom. There are 31 chapters.  That is enough to read one chapter every day for a month. Wisdom calls  out to man.  Seek wisdom, find wisdom and
treasure wisdom.
 
  Looking for wisdom in  the wrong place was part of the reason for the fall.  Genesis 3:6-" When the woman saw that the tree was good food and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise, then,  she took from the tree and ate".......Do yo remember the name of the tree?  Genesis 2:16 and17A  The Lord God commanded the man, saying,"From any tree of the garden you may eat freely; but from the( tree of the knowledge of good and evil) you shall not eat...From the beginning, God did  not want us to sin because, He alone knows what is best for us and he did not what us to  touch or be touched by evil.

Now go to the book of James
 James 1:5-" If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men liberally and without reproach."
  James 1:18- "Of  His own, He begat us with the words of truth so that we should be a kind of first fruit of His creation."
 James 1:21- "Therefore , get rid of all evil and receive with meekness and humility the  engrafted word of God which is able to make you wise and  save your soul"
 James 3:13-" Who is wise and understanding among you ? Let it  show by his good life and  conversation in gentleness of wisdom".
 James 3:17- "But wisdom, that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, congenial, full of mercy and good fruit, without partiality and hypocrisy."

There are so many verses about Wisdom that I could go on all night.  But you can see, that God wants us to have wisdom..

Pray for our children, grandchildren and ourselves  to seek and find wisdom.
