"With their mouths the godless destroy their neighbors, but through knowledge the righteous escape." -Proverbs 11:9 (NIV)
There are lots of different opinions in the world. Even within families and church families, we can disagree. It often seems that the loudest voice gets the most attention. In an age with an abundance of "information," this attention seems to come some sort of "credibility." We may be overwhelmed with information, but we need to be sure we have knowledge!
It is easy to be distracted by everything that is being said around us. We may hear different things, but we need to truly listen and be sure we are using knowledge to discern truth. God has knowledge and wisdom that can help us. As we find ourselves surrounded by and listening to different voices, we can call on God for wisdom, knowledge, and guidance. Through Him, we can know the truth and how to respond in His love and wisdom!
Don't let the loud voices around you distract you from God's true knowledge and wisdom!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the knowledge and wisdom that You share with me. Help me to know the truth and which voices from the world around me are to be trusted. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
