 2 “Enlarge the place of your tent, And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings;
Do not spare;  Lengthen your cords, And strengthen your stakes.   3 For you shall expand to
the right and to the left, And your descendants will inherit the nations, And make the
desolate cities inhabited.  (Isaiah 54:2-3 NKJV)






 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
  Godly Wisdom in the Affairs of Life

Father, You said if anyone lacks wisdom, let him ask of You, who gives to all men liberally, and upbraids not; and it shall be given him.  Therefore, we ask in faith, nothing wavering, to be filled with the knowledge of Your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. Today the leadership of JCC inclines their ears unto wisdom and

applies their hearts to understanding, so that they might receive that which has been freely given unto them.

 

In the name of Jesus, the leadership receives skill and godly Wisdom and instruction.  They discern and comprehend the words of understanding and insight.  The JCC leadership receives instruction in wise dealing and the discipline of wise thoughtfulness, righteousness, justice, and integrity.  Prudence, knowledge, discretion, and discernment are given to them.  They increase in knowledge.  As people of understanding, they acquire skill and attain to sound counsels [so that we may be able to steer our course rightly].

 

Wisdom will keep, defend, and protect us; we love her and she guards us.  We prize Wisdom highly and exalt her; she will bring us to honor because we embrace her.  She gives to our heads a wreath of gracefulness; a crown of beauty and glory will she deliver to us.  Length of days is in her right hand, and in her left hand are riches and honor.

 

Jesus has been made unto us wisdom, and in Him are all the treasures of [divine] wisdom, [of comprehensive insight into the ways and purposes of God], and [all the riches of spiritual] knowledge and enlightenment are stored up and lie hidden.  God has hidden away sound and godly Wisdom and stored it up for us, for we are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

 

Therefore, we will walk in paths of uprightness.  When we walk, our steps shall not be hampered – our path will be clear and open, and when we run we shall not stumble.  We take fast hold of instruction, and do not let her go; we guard her, for she is our life.  We let our eyes look on [with fixed purpose], and our gaze is straight before us.  We consider well the path of our feet, and we let all our ways be established and ordered aright.

 

Father, in the name of Jesus, we look carefully to how we walk!  We live purposefully and worthily and accurately, not as unwise and witless, but as wise, sensible, intelligent people; making the very most of our time – buying up every opportunity. Amen.

 

Scriptures:

Proverbs 1:2-5 (AMP) 2 That people may know skillful and godly Wisdom and instruction, discern and comprehend the words of understanding and insight,  3 Receive instruction in wise dealing and the discipline of wise thoughtfulness, righteousness, justice, and integrity,  4 That prudence may be given to the simple, and knowledge, discretion, and discernment to the youth--  5 The wise also will hear and increase in learning, and the person of understanding will acquire skill and attain to sound counsel [so that he may be able to steer his course rightly]--

 

Proverbs 4:6, 8, 9 (AMP)   6 Forsake not [Wisdom], and she will keep, defend, and protect you; love her, and she will guard you. 8 Prize Wisdom highly and exalt her, and she will exalt and promote you; she will bring you to honor when you embrace her. 9 She shall give to your head a wreath of gracefulness; a crown of beauty and glory will she deliver to you.

Proverbs 4:11-13, 25, 26  (AMP)   11I have taught you in the way of skillful and godly Wisdom [which is comprehensive insight into the ways and purposes of God]; I have led you in paths of uprightness.  12 When you walk, your steps shall not be hampered [your path will be clear and open]; and when you run, you shall not stumble. 13 Take firm hold of instruction, do not let go; guard her, for she is your life. 25 Let your eyes look right on [with fixed purpose], and let your gaze be straight before you. 26 Consider well the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established and ordered aright.

 

Ephesians 5:15, 16  (AMP)  15 Look carefully then how you walk! Live purposefully and worthily and accurately, not as the unwise and witless, but as wise (sensible, intelligent people), 16 Making the very most of the time [buying up each opportunity], because the days are evil.
