Title: Be Prudent

Scriptures: Proverbs 22:3

God’s Message/Promise/Commands:

Amazing day with Jesus!  Today, God tells us to be prudent.  Be wise!  Proverbs 22: 3 says, "A prudent person sees trouble coming and ducks; a simpleton walks in blindly and is clobbered." God is telling us to be prudent and know when to duck, hide, or run away.  It is not always right for us to fight back; we don't have to face every attack that comes our way.  At times, God tells us to sit back or hide or run.  At times, God tells us to stop and don't go into a battle blindly, without a plan, because for sure we will be clobbered.  In the end, no matter what battle we face each day, we are to depend on God on what moves we take.  It is important that we wait and listen to his instructions - it is the most prudent thing we can do.  Wait for His word because His directions will lead us to safety.

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, thank You for reminding me that I don't need to fight all the battles that come my way.  There will be times that I will just need to run or hide but at times, I need to fight back too.  But in all of the battles, I need to be wise or prudent and make sure to depend on Your instructions.  Give me the patience to wait for Your word Lord.  Help me to listen and sensitive to Your word each day.  In Jesus' Name, Amen!

A prudent person sees trouble coming and ducks; a simpleton walks in blindly and is clobbered.

Today, God is telling us that we don't have to face all the battles that come our way.  At times, we just need to hide or run away.  On another, we need to fight and stand on what is right.  But in the end, no matter what battle we face each day, we are to depend on God on what moves we take.  It is important that we wait and listen to his instructions - it is the most prudent thing we can do.  Wait for His word because His directions will lead us to safety.
