Daily Bible Reading - September 2020 God's Life-Giving Word of Wisdomનમૂનો

  

September 25

Introduction

Both Wisdom and Stupidity call out, extending invitations for passers-by to partake of what each offers. Wisdom exhorts her listeners to follow the way of knowledge; following Stupidity’s ways will lead to death.

Scripture Reading 

Proverbs 9:1-18

Today’s Key Verse: Proverbs 9:10

To be wise you must first have reverence for the LORD. If you know the Holy One, you have understanding.

Reflect

Today’s passage begins with Wisdom preparing a feast. What do her “food and drink” represent? What does she offer? What advice does she give? What does Stupidity offer? What is the fate of her victims? What, in today’s terms, would constitute “stolen water” and “stolen bread” (verse 17)? What can you do to avoid temptation?

Pray

Lord God, remind me that true wisdom begins with having reverence for you. Grant me understanding that comes from knowing you, the Holy One. Help me not to ignore or abandon Wisdom’s call, and guard me from worldly distractions that attempt to lure me away from your truth and the good that you desire for me. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Students who are facing temptations that could jeopardize their courses of study.
