Living Life On Mission नमूना

Pray for Wisdom 

God loves to give out wisdom. He doesn’t distribute it loosely though. He gives it to those who specifically ask for it. Two examples are Solomon and Paul in the Bible. Solomon desired wisdom so he could lead God’s people. Paul asked for wisdom, so he could boldly share the Gospel. 

When Jesus sent out the twelve disciples in Matthew 10, he gave them the authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. In verse 16 he gave a warning: “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore, be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.” 

Wisdom isn’t normally an attribute you would associate with snakes; however, they are very clever. They don’t go picking fights; rather, quietly and calmly they depart from dangerous situations. They have very clear eyesight, a phenomenal sense of smell and can hear through vibrations. They sense trouble coming from a mile away. 

When it comes to sharing your faith, each of those attributes, coupled with the gentle and meek qualities of a dove will ensure you can handle each situation. Sometimes that can be easier said than done, which is why you need to daily ask Jesus to grant you wisdom. Wisdom for you to know when to speak and when to listen. Wisdom to know how to answer, and then, wisdom to know when to walk away from a fruitless conversation. 

James 1:5 says, “If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking.” 

God has given you all you need to be successful in living your life on mission and sharing Him with people everywhere you go. Have you taken time to ask God for His wisdom with this, and done the last thing He has asked you to do?
