Proverbs 1:23
“If you respond to my warning,
then I will pour out my spirit on you
and teach you my words.” (CSB)

“Come and listen to my counsel.
I’ll share my heart with you
and make you wise.” (NLT)

“About face! I can revise your life.
Look, I’m ready to pour out my spirit on you;
I’m ready to tell you all I know.” (The Message)

One thing we don’t have nearly enough of these days is wisdom. Knowledge, facts, information, and artificial intelligence abound. Wisdom offers its assistance, but few invite it to sit at the table.

Its omission is evident.

Its inclusion is a no-brainer. It is readily available. It has been accumulated, stored up, inventoried, categorized, and made easily accessible. Daily applications are essential. Full strength is a good start.

You, being wise as you are, already know there are thirty-one chapters in the Book of Proverbs in the Bible. You know it is tucked away neatly between Psalms and Ecclesiastes. You know you can read a chapter a day and learn a thing or two every day for the rest of your life. Imagine learning something new every day that makes you wiser, stronger, healthier, and simply all-‘round better. A proverb a day will do that.

Listen to God’s invitation:

“Come and listen to my counsel.
I’ll share my heart with you
and make you wise.”

Ignorance is a choice. Wisdom is the much better option.

Let’s get wise, guys.

I will listen to God’s wise heart each day and live what he teaches me.

Our Father, I need your wisdom. I know a lot of stuff. I have a lot of stuffing in my heart and mind. I need your wisdom to make it work right and to achieve the right outcomes. Give me a teachable spirit. Instruct me. Refine what I have captured and make it useful in all I do and become. Amen.

Psalm 49:20
Mankind, with his assets
but without understanding,
is like the animals that perish.

Daily D – Psalm 46:10

Psalm 46:10
“Stop fighting, and know that I am God,
exalted among the nations, exalted on the earth.”

Daily D – Ezra 3:11-13

Ezra 3:11-13 They sang with praise and thanksgiving to the Lord: “For he is good; his faithful love to Israel endures forever.” Then all the people gave a great shout of praise to the Lord because the foundation of the Lord’s house had been laid. But many of the older priests, Levites, and family heads, who had seen the first temple, wept loudly when they saw the foundation of this temple, but many others shouted joyfully. The people could not distinguish the sound of the joyful shouting from that of the weeping, because the people were shouting so loudly. And the sound was heard far away.

Daily D – Ezekiel 43:1-5

Ezekiel 43:1-5 He led me to the gate, the one that faces east, and I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east. His voice sounded like the roar of a huge torrent, and the earth shone with his glory. The vision I saw was like the one I had seen when he came to destroy the city, and like the ones I had seen by the Chebar Canal. I fell facedown. The glory of the Lord entered the temple by way of the gate that faced east. Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the inner court, and the glory of the Lord filled the temple.

Daily D – Ezekiel 37:3

Ezekiel 37:3 Then he said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” I replied, “Lord God, only you know.”
