Ecclesiastes 2:26
26 To the person who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
There is a story in the Bible that speaks of Solomon, a young man who, after God offered him anything his heart desired, he requested wisdom. In response to his humble wish, God said to Solomon: … The Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary defines wisdom as “knowledge, and the capacity to make due use of it.”
Godly Wisdom For Our Decisions
When we’re facing a decision
And we’re feeling so unsure,
We need to pray for godly guidance
And the wisdom of the Lord
We need to wait with confidence
That God will show the way
And open doors we must go through,
Giving peace when we pray
Show us your ways, O Lord,
And where we need to walk
Guide us to where you want us,
Help us pray as we ought
Equip us with power and strength
To tread upon new ground,
To go where we’ve not been before
Where your blessings shall abound
For we shall never know how much
You long to bless our lives
Unless we take that step of faith
And follow the steps of Christ
To be where we can grow in you
And become more mature in faith,
To live in the wisdom that you’ve given,
To be immersed in your saving grace
To know your will for our lives,
We but only need to ask
You long to show us what to do,
All we need is obedient hearts
