DAY 13 · 6 MINUTE DEVOTIONAL

Wisdom for the next step

You may not receive the whole map, but God gives wisdom for faithful movement.

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously.
James 1:5

SIT WITH THE WORD

Wisdom is more than information. It is skill for living under God’s truth. James tells believers to ask a generous Father, then to walk without divided loyalty.

Seek Scripture, prayer, mature counsel, facts, and honest awareness of your motives. Peace alone is not always proof, and fear is not always a stop sign. Ask which choice best aligns with truth and love.

REFLECT WITH JESUS

What decision needs wisdom rather than urgency?

1Am I seeking wisdom or permission for what I already want?

2Which biblical principle applies here?

ONE FAITHFUL STEP

Carry it into today

Write the decision, three known facts, and one question to bring to wise counsel.

PRAY

Generous Father, give me wisdom. Purify my motives, guide me through Scripture and wise counsel, and make the next faithful step clear. Amen.
