Memorize this scripture:
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God,
that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
James 1:5
Too easy, right?
If you don’t know what to do, ask God for wisdom.
He will give you wisdom. It’s a promise, a surety.
God gives generously to all who ask Him for wisdom.
You can ask God and He will honor that request, you will not be ashamed.
He will give you wisdom in any situation, in any crisis, any time you ask.
It is not the same as asking a godly person, even a pastor or a preacher.
God did not say ask your friend or your parent or your pastor or your teacher.
Ask God if you lack wisdom and He will give you His wisdom.
If you ask a trusted person, you will get their limited wisdom.
No human is all-knowing as is Jesus.
Ask God if you lack wisdom.
He will not hold back. He will give you what you ask for. His wisdom.
Solomon received much wisdom all at once.
This scripture is telling us, as we ask, in any given situation, any time, even in the midst of the storm, the conversation you are having, the crisis you are involved in, to ask God and He will give you His wisdom.
Any decision you need to make.
Any time you are not sure about something.
Ask God.
He will respond with His wisdom which is greater than any other method of gaining wisdom. Simply ask God.
It is a humble act to go before God to ask Him for His wisdom:
Prayer:
I am coming before You since you are the most wise God, Maker of Heaven and Earth. You know how I am to move forward in this situation or perhaps even wait. I am trusting You to give me Your wisdom, in Jesus’ Mighty Name, Amen.
