WISDOM OF THE WORLD

Earthly knowledge and wisdom has grown by leaps and bounds.

We are often impressed at the things that are discovered and

explained by scientists, researchers, and scholars. As Christians,

we understand that the knowledge and wisdom of this world

cannot reconcile us to God nor lead us to God. The world's

wisdom is temporary and it will disappear along with the rest of

the wood, hay, and stubble when Christ comes for us.

Heavenly Father, we ask for Your true wisdom and knowledge

that will bring life to our souls and that will bring us safely

home to You in eternity. Help us not get distracted and caught

up in the wisdom of this world. In Jesus' name.

Read 1 Corinthians 1:19

"For it is written: 'I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the

intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.'" (NIV)

"For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent." (KJV)
