Wisdom is a combination of believing what is true and doing what is right in the LORD. Wisdom is proven by our right actions, careful decisions in crucial times, and godly response in times of temptation and failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-grey-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">When we have God\u2019s wisdom, it brings peace to our souls for we know God is with us. We are guided by the truths we embrace. It\u2019s like a beacon at midnight. It saves us from doing evil and crooked things. It gives us the confidence to walk upright without flinching before the evildoers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-grey-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">What else does wisdom do to us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-grey-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">In life, we always make choices. Sometimes we fail and succeed, and it is an unending journey. But with wisdom bestowed from God in us, we can discern better (not perfectly) which and what type of people we should choose and be with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-grey-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">It guides us on whom to marry, whom to avoid, and how to do it righteously. With God\u2019s guidance, we can see and understand what will happen and the possible benefits or dangers of what we will do. We know what to prioritize and what to set aside, what to keep and what to let go in life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-grey-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">Wonderful is it not?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-grey-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">Through God\u2019s wisdom, we can walk righteously because we have the knowledge and understanding of what life is all about and that is to know, serve, and worship God in the name of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, for His glory forever. Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-grey-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">Do you have wisdom? Does your way of life reflect the mind, and heart of God?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-grey-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">What is your decision? Come to the Lord and pray for God\u2019s guidance in Jesus\u2019 name.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Proverbs 2:10-20 \u201cSo you will walk in the way of good men and keep to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":947,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1108","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-devotional"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Logo-7_Devotion_Purging-Word_Title-Cover_1200-x-628-copy.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1108","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1108"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1108\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1339,"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1108\/revisions\/1339"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/947"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1108"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1108"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/purgingword.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1108"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
