Proverbs 8 SOAP Scripture ”Take my instruction instead of silver, and knowledge rather than choice gold, for wisdom is better than jewels, and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.“ Proverbs 8:10-11 ESV Observation Nothing created (even the most valuable things that the fallen world can offer) can compare to the truth and wisdom that comes from my Father. When I set my mind on things above, the earthly things are placed in right order and priority in my life. Application I must rightly consider all earthly things in light of Gods Word and Truth. If I am not careful, I am prone to chase the unworthy and overestimate the value of worldly things. Prayer Lord, work in my heart and mind so that I see this world through the lens of Your Word and Your Gospel. Please convict me when I consider exchanging the righteousness you call me to for earthly things. Help me to hunger for your Word and Truth. Help me by giving me wisdom. Amen.
