Ecclesiastes 7:12 Wisdom is a shelter as money is a shelter, but the advantage of knowledge is this: Wisdom preserves those who have it.Prayer Direction
Read James 1:5 - Thank God for the provision of wisdom. Ask God to show you where you lack wisdom in your life. Then boldly ask him to give you the wisdom he so generously supplies. Ask God to show you if there is someone in your life, you should ask to be your mentor or provide counsel.“Live It!” Challenge
Use Wisdom! - God provides wisdom through his Holy Spirit, through the Bible, and through godly counsel. Based on the prayer direction, as you read, meditate and pray through James 1:5, take one step to apply the wisdom God provides to a situation in your life. If God puts someone on your heart, ask them to be your mentor.Small Group Discussion
