For Wisdom They Lack

In prayers for the nations government to be seekers of Godly wisdom

They know lots of things, but we ask for wisdom from Above for our government officials to make good Godly decisions.

We pray for them today, from James 1:5 and from Proverbs 3, for it is the Lord who gives wisdom.


A Devotional Prayer for Obtaining Godly Wisdom

[Pro 2:1-5 NKJV] 1 My son, if you receive my words, And treasure my commands within you, 2 So that you incline your ear to wisdom, apply your heart to understanding; 3 Yes, if you cry out for discernment, lift up your voice for understanding, 4 if you seek her as silver, And search for her as [for] hidden treasures; 5 Then you will understand the fear of the LORD, And find the knowledge of God.

Here are 5 key things we can do and pray for to discover the knowledge of God:

  1. receive, treasure - be intentional

  2. incline - study the word

  3. apply - have a teachable heart

  4. cry out, lift your voice - be consistent in asking

  5. seek, search - be diligent in searching

The promise of knowledge of the holy is conditional, that is - If we do these things, then comes the divine promise: we will understand and find.

Father, help us focus on searching the word for Godly wisdom and knowledge. May we meditate on your Word, and be teachable, asking regularly for wisdom we lack, and to make it a daily priority. Grant us to find insight, understanding, and discernment.


Until next time, grace and peace…
