Godly Decision Making

Follow the Lord’s Wise Ways

12/20/2025

Are you in the midst of making a decision? Do you wonder what the best course of action is regarding work, parenting, a relationship, your health or finances?

If ever there was a time to follow God’s wise ways, it is now.  We need wisdom for daily decisions. We need wisdom for how to proceed when the unexpected happens.

Proverbs 2:6 tells us that God is the source and provider of wisdom. “For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth comes knowledge and understanding.”

The apostle Paul praises God in his letter to the Romans, “to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be glory forever. Amen” (Romans 16:27). 

The word, “wise” which is “sophos” in Greek, means “forming the best plans and using the best means for their execution.” 

Paul again refers to God being wise in 1 Timothy 1:17. “Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory forever and ever. Amen.” 

Did you notice in both passages that Paul not only states that God is wise, but he also specifies, “the only wise God”? 

What a blessing that we can go to our Heavenly Father, study His ways, pray, and walk in the light of His wise ways. Are we?

WISE Heavenly Father, I praise You for allowing me to come to You. Thank You for providing me with wisdom for daily life. Thank You for the wisdom You give me in the midst of hard decisions. I love You.
