Characteristics of Godly Wisdom

Wisdom - Proverbs 4:9

We admire the Proverbs 31 woman. How can we put more of what she embodies into our own lives?

Let us desire to walk in godly wisdom. We start by saturating ourselves in God’s Word – the holy scriptures are FULL of wisdom that we can apply to our daily lives with awesome and proven results.

Here are some characteristics of godly wisdom we can begin (or continue!) to work on:

  1. Discretion – knowing when to speak vs. when to be silent
  2. Maturity – developing through stages (not staying static or rigid); being pliant, pliable, and yielded – able to be transformed
  3. Taking decisive action (choices reflect our heart condition)
  4. Integrity – operating according to GOD’S principles vs. allowing circumstances, natural senses, or feelings to dictate our response
  5. Obedience – non-negotiable (entails applying all of the above in the proper God-directed sequence & timing)

Blessings as we work and walk in, on, and with wisdom, Kayren 

“10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.

29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.

30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.

31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.”

(Proverbs 31:10, 28-31)
