Proverbs SOAP: The Proverbs are for gaining widsom

A chapter of Proverbs a day…

Scripture: Proverbs 1:1-2

1The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel:

2for attaining wisdom and discipline;

for understanding words of insight;

Observation: The book of Proverbs is set aside to help me gain wisdom and grow as a disciple.

Application: Reading and studying and truly listening to God in the pages of the Proverbs will help me to grow into the believer and person that God has designed me to be.

Prayer: Lord, thank you for wanting me to grow in wisdom, discipline and understanding. Thank you for providing your Word that we may read it, study it and hear you in it.

Please guide my reading of Proverbs this month so that I will hear you speaking directly to me, even when I may not like what you are saying, so that I may grow in wisdom and discipline and gain more insight in the places you know I need it.

Please be with all those reading with me that we all might hear you speaking to each of us individually and learn what you have set out for each of us.

Please, Lord, continue to guide those struggling to finish reading the Bible in its entirety with our Bible in 90 Days group. Keep Satan from thwarting their plans. Enable them to see and use pockets of time to continue reading your Word. And, Lord, I pray that you guide all of us through the next steps you have designed for each of us.

Thank you,  Lord.

***Are you reading through Proverbs with me this month? What verse spoke out to you in Proverbs 1?

  1. I plan on blogging about this everyday to hold me accountable. Would you consider having other bloggers that are doing this list on a one time linky so I can check their pages and encourage them?

  2. I’m joining you too! I can’t promise I’ll blog every day, but I have the past two mornings. For Ch. 1 I chose 1:7, about what a fool is.

  3. Yes I am. This verse stood out to me the first time I read it through.
    7The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction (discipline).

  4. Hey there! I’m joining you in Proverbs and blogged a bit about it this morning…I’ll be out of the house most of today and hope to post tomorrow about chapters 1, 2. THANKS for allowing us to walk alongside with you on this journey through the Word! I’m still on my “high” from finishing the Bible in 90 days! :)
