Proverbs 2:1-15 My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you, making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God.
For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding; he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity, guarding the paths of justice and watching over the way of his saints.
Then you will understand righteousness and justice and equity, every good path; for wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul; discretion will watch over you understanding will guard you, delivering you from the way of evil, from men of perverted speech, who forsake the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness, who rejoice in doing evil and delight in the perverseness of evil, men whose paths are crooked, and who are devious in their ways.
Father, We thank You for the great blessing You have given us in Your word. We thank You that You have not left us to fend for ourselves as we navigate this sin filled and deceit filled world but You have commanded us to ask for wisdom which You give generously to all.
And so we do. We come here and ask that You would give us that supernatural, godly wisdom to walk in a way that is both pleasing and honoring to You.
Give us wisdom in dealing with others around us. Give us wisdom to recognize and deal with the enemy's attacks.
And Lord, last but not least, bless all the godly leaders and politicians in this world with the wisdom to execute the positions to which they were elected and YOU installed them to do. Thank You for the gift of Your Holy Spirit. May we not squander it but honor you with it. In Jesus name. Amen
Amen.
Amen, metmom

Psalm 25
Of David.
1 To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
2 O my God, in you I trust;
do not let me be put to shame;
do not let my enemies exult over me.
3 Do not let those who wait for you be put to shame;
let them be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous.
4 Make me to know your ways, O Lord;
teach me your paths.
5 Lead me in your truth, and teach me,
for you are the God of my salvation;
for you I wait all day long.
6 Be mindful of your mercy, O Lord, and of your steadfast love,
for they have been from of old.
7 Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions;
according to your steadfast love remember me,
for your goodness’ sake, O Lord!
8 Good and upright is the Lord;
therefore he instructs sinners in the way.
9 He leads the humble in what is right,
and teaches the humble his way.
10 All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness,
for those who keep his covenant and his decrees.
11 For your name’s sake, O Lord,
pardon my guilt, for it is great.
12 Who are they that fear the Lord?
He will teach them the way that they should choose.
13 They will abide in prosperity,
and their children shall possess the land.
14 The friendship of the Lord is for those who fear him,
and he makes his covenant known to them.
15 My eyes are ever towards the Lord,
for he will pluck my feet out of the net.
16 Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.
17 Relieve the troubles of my heart,
and bring me* out of my distress.
18 Consider my affliction and my trouble,
and forgive all my sins.
19 Consider how many are my foes,
and with what violent hatred they hate me.
20 O guard my life, and deliver me;
do not let me be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.
21 May integrity and uprightness preserve me,
for I wait for you.
22 Redeem Israel, O God,
out of all its troubles.
Amen
AMEN!! AMEN MetMom....
Thank you for that psalm. It’s not only so appropriate for this thread, but where I am in my life right now.
“And so we do. We come here and ask that You would give us that supernatural, godly wisdom to walk in a way that is both pleasing and honoring to You.
Give us wisdom in dealing with others around us. Give us wisdom to recognize and deal with the enemy’s attacks.
And Lord, last but not least, bless all the godly leaders and politicians in this world with the wisdom to execute the positions to which they were elected and YOU installed them to do. Thank You for the gift of Your Holy Spirit.”
