Bible Verse of The Day – 10-7-25

James 1:5 (NKJV) 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

Our struggles can often make us stronger if we follow God’s help in walking them out.

But this does not mean that we should live in constant struggles. They should be temporary.

This is especially true of financial struggles. They are hard on our marriage. They are hard on our family. They take their toll on people.

Studies show that half of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

With that in mind, there are many families, marriages, etc., that are hurting.

What can we do to get out of such a struggle?

As I sit here today and ponder some of the hard times we have been through, I hurt for those struggling right now.

I know that feeling personally. It’s awful.

There aren’t words that can describe what it is like to be in a position of not knowing what will happen if we don’t get help immediately.

You are not alone.

The only way we got through that time was to know that God knew what was happening and He gave us His wisdom.

You see, His word promises us things if we follow His instructions; we get His answers.

His wisdom for us was in the verse below…

Malachi 3:10 (NKJV) 10 Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this,” Says the Lord of hosts, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it.

Now, I’m not saying this is your answer, for your situation. But for us it changed our world.

When we took this verse to heart, and we began to faithfully walk it out, He turned our lives around.

Get His wisdom today, and stop the struggle.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-23-25

Proverbs 3:13-15 (NKJV) 13 Happy is the man who finds wisdom, And the man who gains understanding; 14 For her proceeds are better than the profits of silver, And her gain than fine gold. 15 She is more precious than rubies, And all the things you may desire cannot compare with her.

If we are not careful, we will spend our whole life trying to find happiness in the wrong things.

Over the past few months my heart has been earnestly seeking God for His wisdom and understanding.

This life we live is not easy, and probably never will be.

No matter how hard we try to make everything perfect, there will still come days that are hard. Days that we are not sure how to handle. And People that are difficult that we must deal with on a regular basis.

What will make our lives a little easier? Finding God’s wisdom and understanding.

Proverbs 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.

We may not have all the answers for every situation that troubles us. It is sometimes impossible to know exactly what to do and say.

And we all know that sometimes we make mistakes, even as God’s children.

I’ve learned over the years that most times that is how we get our understanding when it comes to what NOT to do.

This is also how we can learn and give advice to help others as needed.

But most importantly, we do have Someone we can go to and confide in and get the help we need. It’s His wisdom and understanding that will get us through the most difficult things in life.

Getting God’s wisdom in every area of our life will bring stability and a genuine happiness that we would not know otherwise.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-5-25

Proverbs 4:5 (NKJV) 5 Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth.

Paying attention to seasons, or changes that need to come in our lives, is crucial.

Making the right decision at the right time will be easy if we trust God’s leading and obey Him each step of the way.

Some people today have never been led by God in their decisions. They have always made up their own mind. They have always decided on their own what to do, and then just did it.

They never inquired of God for His wisdom and what He wanted for them in the matter.

It is just the way they have always done it, even as a Christian. They never think to ask God anything regarding the decision that is before them.

And you know the first thing they do when things don’t turn out right? They blame God for not helping them. For not being there for them. For not saving them from making a big mistake.

It is very sad. And sometimes they walk away from God because they feel that He failed them.

If we want His wisdom on anything, we simply need to ask Him. If we are sincere in wanting His guidance, He will be faithful, not only to give us wisdom, but also an understanding of that situation as well.

So, let us not neglect to seek Him when we are in the decision making process.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-22-25

Proverbs 2:10-11 (NKJV) 10 When wisdom enters your heart, And knowledge is pleasant to your soul, 11 Discretion will preserve you; Understanding will keep you…

If we were to read the entirety of the book of Proverbs, we would clearly see that wisdom is viewed as being critical in our lives.

We often make the mistake of thinking or believing that wisdom is only a matter of intellect.

But it goes far beyond that.

Wisdom partners with many other pleasing attributes, such as knowledge, discretion, and understanding.

Together, these characteristics help us make sound choices, both in the natural world and in our walk with God.

Earthly wisdom is a byproduct of the effort made to learn from others about life choices.

We learn to handle our finances, our relationships, and many other things that pertain to everyday life.

If we were to look at the verses following the ones above, we would see that discretion and understanding will deliver us from the way of evil, from those who speak perverse things, from those who leave the path of uprightness, from those who rejoice in doing evil and who delight in the perversity of the wicked, and much more.

Suffice it to say, wisdom, knowledge, discretion, and understanding are more important than most of us realize!

And the Bible also speaks directly about the simple and the ignorant (unlearned).

This is not done to belittle those who are simple or ignorant, but to encourage them to get the wisdom and understand that are needed to become wise and discerning, leaving their ignorance behind.

If we are lacking understanding, let us not make the mistake of staying that way!

God gives us everything we need to learn, grow, and excel in wisdom.

All that is required on our part is to put forth the effort! If we are willing to do that, He will give the increase.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-13-25

Proverbs 1:5-6 (LSB) 5 Let the wise man hear and increase in learning, And a man of understanding will acquire guidance, 6 To understand a proverb and an enigma, The words of the wise and their riddles.

Wisdom does not come naturally. It is learned.

Some wisdom comes by way of life’s experiences; we try things. Sometimes we fail, and sometimes we succeed.

Our failures should be a learning experience. They show us what works and what does not work.

But many times, we can learn by drawing on the wisdom of others who are willing to share with us what they have learned. We acquire guidance.

This can often be the better way to learn many things because we are spared the heartache of failure on a repetitive basis.

But we must be willing to admit our ignorance and our shortcomings if we are to learn from others. Our pride must be laid aside and humility must be exercised.

This applies both to natural wisdom and wisdom gleaned from the word of God.

Some kinds of understanding do not come naturally or easily to us. They must be explained and expounded upon by others who are more knowledgeable.

If we are lacking wisdom, we must not be afraid to ask for it.

James 1:5 (NKJV) 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

The most important thing is that we do obtain wisdom. For without it, we are destined to live a life of repeated failures, mistakes, and a broken heart as we fall into the same pit repeatedly.

Proverbs 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-21-24

James 1:5 (NKJV) 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

We all need God’s wisdom.

We need His wisdom in making decisions.

We need His wisdom in raising our children.

We need His wisdom in our marriage.

We need His wisdom in our daily routines.

We need His wisdom to know when to speak and when to be silent.

His wisdom should be what guides us in all we do.

How do we get His wisdom?

We simply ask Him.

That’s right. If you are struggling for an answer today, if you are wondering what you need to do right now, you ask Him. He will give you the answer you need.

You may know right away, or you may have to walk it out. But as you take the steps one at a time, His wisdom will be there.

Ask Him for wisdom. You don’t have to do this alone.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-18-24

1 Kings 4:31 (NKJV) 31 For he was wiser than all men—than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol; and his fame was in all the surrounding nations.

Solomon was shown tremendous favor by God in many ways.

One of the most well-known is the wisdom that God imparted into him.

It is important to remember that Solomon was young when he became king over Israel, taking over for his father, David.

Historical accounts estimate he was 20 years old when he assumed the throne.

Despite being an adult, Solomon knew he lacked the proper experience needed to rule over God’s people wisely.

And he had the humility to admit this when God came to him in a dream.

1 Kings 3:9 (NKJV) 9 Therefore give to Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, that I may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?”

This request from Solomon pleased God. And He granted Solomon’s request, making him wiser than any man who had ever lived.

The wisdom given to Solomon was not conventional intellect. It was heavenly wisdom imparted to him solely by way of God’s spirit.

God will work in our lives in ways like this. He is still the same God!

We may not be ruling over kingdoms. We may not be seated on a throne or in high positions of earthly power, but we each have a path God has appointed us to walk. And that walk may sometimes require that we have understanding well beyond our natural abilities.

God gives us wisdom for our daily lives through the Holy Spirit. It is there for the asking.

All we are required to do is take the time and make the effort to seek Him, listen to Him and follow what he shows us to do.

He is as faithful now as He was in the days of Solomon.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-23-24

James 1:5 (NKJV) 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

Before we ask God for wisdom, we must reach a place where we are willing to hear Him.

An open heart and the wisdom of God will take us to a new level in our walk with Him!

Growing close to God depends on how much we will let Him in. Will we let Him touch those places in our lives that we are most comfortable in or comfortable with?

This is a tough thing. We get so comfortable with familiarity, almost to the point of being protective of it.

We don’t want anyone to mess with it, bring change to it or cause any disturbance with it.

But, we need to recognize that the comfort we sometimes try to hold onto can be deceiving. In fact, it can be downright crippling. And it can very well be robbing us of great things that God wants to do in our lives; great change that needs to come.

Will we trust Him today, open up our heart and let Him touch us? Yes, in that place of comfort?

There may be a whole other life outside of our comfort zone.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

God bless you!

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-17-23

Proverbs 4:6 (NKJV) Do not forsake her and she will preserve you.

Who is this scripture referring to as her? Wisdom.

Proverbs 4:7 also tells us that wisdom is the principle thing to get.

How do we get such wisdom?

James 1:5 (NKJV) 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

Yes, getting wisdom requires us to ask God for it and He will give it generously or in abundance!

The NIV translation says, He will give without finding fault.

We need to hear this and know that God does not look down on us when we come to Him for wisdom.

He doesn’t say, “Oh boy, we’ve been here before, do we have to do this again?”.

No, He does not find fault. He is gracious, and He wants us to go to Him, trusting in Him and asking for His help.

Each time we go to Him and wait on His answer, we have already begun to take the first steps in walking in such wisdom.

In this world we live there will be hard hits and trials that we will have to walk through. But we will remain safe if we seek His wisdom and abide by it.

Proverbs 1:33 (NKJV) But whoever listens to me will dwell safely. and will be secure, without fear of evil.

We all know that when trials hit, fear usually follows. Let us not take the road that fear would lead us down, but remember to listen to the One who knows us better than we know ourselves. He will keep us safe.

2 Thessalonians 3:3 (NKJV) 3 But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-15-23

Romans 11:33 (NKJV) 33 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!

God is so deep that it is impossible for us to fully discover or understand all of Him.

Paul says it best; the depths of His riches are His wisdom and knowledge. According to Paul, being rich isn’t about money. It is in having God’s wisdom and knowledge.

How do we obtain this? Through studying His word and learning His ways.

In doing this, we gain wisdom to know what He says about certain things.

He gives us knowledge on how to handle very hard situations and His overall stance on the things that we face daily.

Getting His wisdom and knowledge on things brings an understanding to us in ways we would never have thought of on our own.

I pray to God that we all move in His wisdom and knowledge, that we seek after Him, and study to get His word so deeply into our hearts.

You see, the Holy Spirit can not remind us of the things that the Word of God says if we don’t get that word in us.

John 14:26  (NKJV) 26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.

Many people will sit for hours and read a fiction book, and not think anything of it. But will people consider reading their Bible?

The Bible is the most beautiful love story ever told. A book that has been around for thousands of years.  A book that is filled with real life lessons to learn. A book filled with God’s wisdom and knowledge, right at our fingertips.

Every page has precious nuggets that will help us tremendously if we would apply them.

What are we waiting for? Go after His wisdom and knowledge!

Proverbs 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.

Amen.
