Wisdom from God
If you’ve ever gone on a trip somewhere you’ve never been, you know how important it is to have a map. Maps help us navigate the unknown areas ahead. Similarly, God’s Word helps us navigate through the unknown seasons of life. It reveals God’s wisdom, which can be essential in guiding our lives.
The book of Proverbs is filled with wisdom and knowledge that helps people live according to God’s purposes for their life. It starts by acknowledging that everything begins with God.
Because God is the creator of life, He knows what direction our lives should go. Our role, according to Proverbs, is to seek Him and trust Him. Trusting God means having a relationship with Him and believing that He knows what's best for us.
The more we trust in God and submit our lives to Him, the more we will live in accordance with His will. Proverbs 3:6 says that when we submit to God’s wisdom in all our ways, He will direct and guide us. And thankfully, God has given us Scripture to show us what His will really looks like.
That’s why it’s important to read God’s Word daily and get familiar with all that He says—so that in every area of life, we can trust Him to direct our paths.
Take some time today to pray about the direction of your life. If there are situations you’re unsure about, ask God to give you wisdom. Allow Him to direct your paths. Get in the habit of reading His Word, so that you have His wisdom as you go through life.
