2. Repent of living by your own wisdom
1. Pursue humility by drawing near to God
2. Repent of living by your own wisdom
Key Theme:
Walking in wisdom from God versus walking in worldly wisdom especially with our tongue.
Key Application:
Walk in and pursue humility and repentance by the grace of God to gain wisdom from above.
Key Verse:
James 3:13-15
“13 Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. 14 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. 15 This is not the wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.”
Key Questions:
1. What words have you spoken to others lately that were not grace-filled and stirred up anger and strife? Who do you need to ask forgiveness from that you have wronged?
2. In what area(s) are you currently walking with a divided heart and mind using worldly wisdom and not godly wisdom?
3. How can you practically draw near to God to cultivate humility in your life? Ask God for his enabling grace to see youself for who you really are in light of who he really is.

Church family, we praise God for how faithfully in so many respects you give. Our church family is undeniably generous, but we still have great needs for supplication. We ask that you give joyfully, faithfully and sacrificially in response to how our great God and Savior has given to us.
