Success without wisdom is a recipe for disaster. Maintaining God's abundant success requires us to have insight not just about our present-day circumstances, but also concerning the future. Check out these three simple steps on how to make knowledge and understanding a priority in every area of your life!

Scripture Gem: "For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth comes knowledge and understanding." ~ Proverbs 2:6

This passage in Proverbs 2:6 holds wisdom as simple as ABC on how to gain the insight you need for your present-day circumstances and future. This scripture gem shows us that we must A. commit, B. listen to, C. truth every day to enjoy God's abundant success.

 A. Commit

All wisdom begins with God. When we need more knowledge and understanding in our lives, we simply commit to asking God. James 1:5 says, "If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him." God is generous and will give us the wisdom we need.

Reflection: How often do I seek God's wisdom on situations I encounter during my day?

Everyday Wisdom: So, every day I: COMMIT to asking God for the understanding and knowledge I need.

B. Listen

When we commit to asking God for insight, we must set our ears to listen. This practically looks like knowing and growing in your ability to hear God's voice.

Reflection: How does God communicate with me?

Everyday Wisdom: So, choose to: LISTEN for the answer.

C. Truth

Knowledge and understanding helps us get to the truth of any matter. Knowledge is the facts and understanding is the revelation of how the facts should be applied in your life. Both of these are needed to experience success.

Reflection: Take a moment to pray and ask God for the energy to advance in every area of your life this year.

Everyday Wisdom: So, every day I must apply: TRUTH to my circumstances.

Put these steps into practice every day to experience God's abundant success for your life by prioritizing your time.
