Wisdom Calls for a Hearing

Listen as Wisdom calls out! Hear as understanding raises her voice!
Proverbs 8:1 NLT

On the hilltop along the road, she takes her stand at the crossroads. By the gates at the entrance to the town, on the road leading in, she cries aloud, “I call to you, to all of you! I raise my voice to all people.

You simple people, use good judgment. You foolish people, show some understanding. Listen to me! For I have important things to tell you. Everything I say is right, for I speak the truth and detest every kind of deception. My advice is wholesome. There is nothing devious or crooked in it.

My words are plain to anyone with understanding, clear to those with knowledge. Choose my instruction rather than silver, and knowledge rather than pure gold. For wisdom is far more valuable than rubies.

Nothing you desire can compare with it. Proverbs 8:2-11 NLT

Prayer:

Father,
          Your Word instructs us in an earlier chapter that Wisdom is the principal thing; that we are to therefore get wisdom: and with all our getting to get understanding. Show us how, Father. We want wisdom and according to James, all we have to do is ask and You will give it to us liberally. Please, Father, give us Your wisdom. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
