Do you lack wisdom and understanding?

Posted

“To man He said: ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.’ ” Job 28:28

What is it to have true wisdom and understanding? It is to fear and honor the Lord God who made us and to depart from evil by repenting of the sin and wickedness in our lives and looking to God for mercy and forgiveness in the shed blood of Christ Jesus, our Savior.

O gracious God, have mercy upon us, forgive our foolishness for Jesus’ sake, and grant us wisdom from Your Word and the understanding needed to depart from evil and to live for You. Amen.
