*TOPIC: BENEFITS OF WISDOM*
*Read Proverbs 2:10-14*
*MEMORISE: _When wisdom enters your heart, and knowledge is pleasant to your soul, discretion will preserve you; understanding will keep you_ (Proverbs 2:10-11)*
*EXPOSITION*
Discretion is the quality of being careful about what you do and say, so that people will not be embarrassed or offended, while understanding is the knowledge and ability to judge a particular situation or subject, so defines, the Merriam Webster Dictionary.
Discretion, which wisdom of the Gospel gives, makes a man wise and discreet in the business of salvation and in his conduct and deportment; and will put him upon his guard, and direct him to watch against every error and false way.
Discretion is the ability to tell right from wrong. It enables the believer to detect evil motives in men and women *(Prov. 2:12; 16).* With practice, it helps us evaluate courses of action and consequences.
As we open ourselves up to God for Him to do His work in our lives, we will begin to watch two very helpful things that will begin to happen in our thinking.
The first is that we will begin to have biblical discernment. When God’s wisdom comes into our lives, we begin to live with prudence.
This means that we begin to look things over before doing them. We are prudent in that we think about the end of the matter before doing something.
Understanding refers to someone with insight. Such persons receive the information God gives them from His Word and Spirit, and begins to comprehend all things from that perspective.
They see things from God’s perspective, and having seen that, they avoid danger and stupidity like the plague. We can get this wisdom by being Christ’s and being indwelled by His Spirit. Has that happened to, and in you?
*PRAYER POINTS*
1. Lord Jesus, grant me the wisdom to be discreet in the business of salvation, and in my conduct.
2. Holy Spirit, give me the ability to tell right from wrong, and detect evil motives in men and women.
3. Lord Jesus, grant all Christians, and especially, our Christian leaders, the prudence to think about the end of the matter before doing anything.
