Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.

Ecclesiastes 9:18

Thoughts on Today’s Verse…

Just a little leaven and the whole lump is changed (1 Corinthians 5:6). A sinful person can have the same effect, leaving an evil residue on an entire group of people committed to God. So let’s be wise and reverence God by obeying him and his Word. Let’s be insightful in the way we deal with sin and temptation in our lives. Let’s also remember that we are at war with the evil one (Ephesians 6:10-12) and do not even allow him the tiniest footholds. Then, let’s praise God because our Savior has already defeated our enemy, and the Holy Spirit empowers us to stand up to Satan’s attacks and resist his temptations.

My Prayer…

Loving Father, please give me wisdom to see through the deceptiveness of the devil’s schemes while I seek to live your truth and display your character in my life. Thank you for your power at work in me and in my life. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
