Are you wise?

Ecclesiasticus 1:8“There is one wise and greatly to be feared, the Lord sitting upon his throne.” 

Proverbs 14:1“Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.”

 

Building a house takes time effort and energy. If you look at each task of love that  you do in your daily life. Laundry, dishes, cooking, encouragement of your family or friends, kind words, selfless behavior. That's only six bricks. How many more would you need to build an entire house?? So if each thing we do builds our house and we have the ability to tear it down with our words????? We need to be very careful to guard our mouths and conduct our lives as women of wisdom.  

^{Prov 31:25}Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. ²⁶She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. ²⁷She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.

Tobit 4:18“Ask counsel of all that are wise, and despise not any counsel that is profitable.”

Psalm 49:3My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.

Deuteronomy 32:29“O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!”

Deuteronomy Chapter 4:5 Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it.6 Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.7 For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him for?8 And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?

Ecclesiasticus 9:15“Let thy talk be with the wise, and all thy communication in the law of the most High.”

Ecclesiasticus Chapter 6:32 My son, if thou wilt, thou shalt be taught: and if thou wilt apply thy mind, thou shalt be prudent.33 If thou love to hear, thou shalt receive understanding: and if thou bow thine ear, thou shalt be wise,34 Stand in the multitude of the elders; and cleave unto him that is wise.35 Be willing to hear every godly discourse; and let not the parables of understanding escape thee.36 And if thou seest a man of understanding, get thee betimes unto him, and let thy foot wear the steps of his door.37 Let thy mind be upon the ordinances of the Lord and meditate continually in his commandments: he shall establish thine heart, and give thee wisdom at thine owns desire.

 

  Remember the parable of the ten virgins. A wise woman is prepared for the things that she might face in the day. She looks to The Most High for wisdom and direction concerning her day, then she prepares so that she will be ready for what may lie ahead. If you are a mother you really have learned to be prepared because you have a little one depending on you for everything.So whether it is a sweater on a chilly day, a snack, diapers & wipes, or computers and books for a study day, Learning to be prepared in this natural realm can

 translate into the Spiritual realm making us get prepared for Christs soon return.

Matthew Chapter 25:4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps
