WISDOM

Proverbs 17:30 LXX (17:28)

Wisdom shall be imputed to a man without understanding who asks for wisdom,
And anyone who holds his peace will seem to have discernment.

Personal Challenge

Wisdom is not the same thing as knowledge and definitely not the same thing as information. We live in an age where unlimited amounts of information are available. Unfortunately, so much of that information is invalid and deceptive. It often is full of lies and conflicts with truth and facts. One must always address this information firehose with true discernment that can only come from God. Good, quality, and correct information can lead to knowledge. However, knowledge without godly wisdom is still worthless. The writer of this proverb reminds us that if we seek wisdom from our God, we will receive it. Then it is upon us to use it effectively for Him. Lord, have mercy! Lord, have mercy! Lord, have mercy!
