March 2- Proverbs 2:6-7

Proverbs 2:6-7 ( read from the Amplified bible)
Vs. 6 "For the Lord gives skillful and godly Wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding. Vs. 7 "He hides away sound and godly Wisdom and stores it up for the righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with Him); He is a shield to those who walk uprightly and in integrity"

It says the Lord stores up godly wisdom for the righteous. How do we tap into that wisdom?
First, we must ask for it. James 1:5 says, "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." WE MUST ASK! In James 4:2b it says, "Yet you do not have because you do not ask." This verse can apply to many different things, we need to ask God for what we need.
Second, we must get wisdom from God's Word. It is full of wisdom and has an answer for every need we have. Start with Proverbs it is packed full of wisdom.
The end of verse 7 says that He is a shield to those who walk uprightly and in integrity. Isn't that wonderful that He is a shield to protect us if walk uprightly with Him. When problems of life coming darting at us, we need to say, "Thank you Lord that you are a shield for me and you protect me." Start using wisdom and speak the Word of God over life's situations. "Thank You Lord, that no weapon formed against me shall prosper ." Isa. 53: 17
