Daily Devotion, May 12, 2023


 

Devotion:


Read Proverbs 1:1-5.


What the book of Psalms is to prayer and devotional life the book of Proverbs is to everyday life. Proverbs gives practical suggestions for effective living. There is much wisdom in the book known as the Proverbs. Verse 5 here is a great example: “...let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance…” 


The book of Proverbs focuses on God: his characters, works and blessings. It tells us how we can live in close relationship with him. One of the best ways of learning from God is to listen and let God guide our thoughts, words, and actions.


Personal Worship Option:


Spend some time in quiet before the LORD. it’s easy to be bombarded with advice - talk show hosts, podcasters, friends, etc. Take time to listen to God rather than to television or podcasts. At the end of the day, assess which words of wisdom you applied (or should have).
