Today’s Scripture
He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends. A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes into a fool. An evil man seeketh only rebellion: therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him. Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly. Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house. The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with. He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD. Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it? A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity. A man void of understanding striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his friend. He loveth transgression that loveth strife: and he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction. He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.
Proverbs 17:9-20
Today’s Thought
It seems like the Bible labels foolish people as those that think it’s a waste of time to seek for wisdom… While Jesus’ one desire is to seek wisdom. Today, remember to seek out wisdom with all your heart it’s the key to transforming your life…
Today’s Confession
Thank you, Lord, for wisdom. Thank you for leading me toward wisdom and understanding in every area of my life and help cultivate a deeper desire for wisdom in my life.
