DAY 250: JOURNEY THROUGH THE BIBLE

Once again, our journey takes us through the book of Proverbs, chapter 22.

Ask the Lord for His understanding of the proverbs contained in chapter 22. Read Proverbs 22. Let’s journey!

King Solomon, son of King David, is believed to be the wisest man who ever lived, with the exception of Jesus Christ. King Solomon is the author of most of the book of Proverbs, which means wisdom. Solomon, upon being crowned king, was offered a gift from the Lord. Already showing wisdom, Solomon asked that the Lord bestow upon him wisdom to rule wisely. Wisdom is about how to live in a way that honors God and all wisdom comes from the Lord.

Proverbs 22: Once again, this proverb contains a series of verses contrasting wisdom and folly. In verse 17, we begin studying the “Thirty Saying For The Wise.” A special look at wisdom. (Proverbs 22:1-29)

Following today’s reading, take some time and meditate on a piece of wisdom that stood out to you. Consider why you are drawn to that piece of wisdom. Does it go against what the secular world teaches? What is God trying to teach you through this piece of wisdom? How can that wisdom be applied to your life?
