26th Strategy.

Wisdom - The fear of Jehovah (the LORD) is the instruction for Wisdom: Proverbs 15:33

• Bring your heart before the LORD and open up to Him. You may come boldly before the throne of God.
• Ask Him to cleanse you heart and remove any resistance you might have to wisdom or understanding.
• A wisdom passage can be hidden within other information.
• There might be a nugget in a phrase, or a sentence.
• Whole passages can also be wisdom passages. All of Proverbs for example.
• Remove whatever word, phrase, sentence or section of the passage pulls on you heart.
• Write it down.
• Ponder on this as long as you need to.
• Bring your time with LORD to gratitude and enter your day!
