The Connection Between Prayer and Wisdom

SCRIPTURE: In Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee. – 1 Kings 3:5

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: In prayer, the mind of man becomes saturated with the thought of God.

There is a connection between prayer and wisdom. For instance, Solomon asked God for wisdom in prayer and his desire was granted.

Now, how do you connect wisdom at the place of prayer?

While you are praying in the spirit and communing with God, there is an intercourse and exchange of mind between you and God. Prayer creates the avenue of exchanging your thoughts with that of God. The thought of God received at the place of prayer is called wisdom. When you share your feelings with Him, He also shares His feelings with you. When you share your emotions with Him, He also shares His emotions with you. When you share your plans with Him, He also shares His plans with you.

At the place of prayer, the mind of man becomes saturated with the thought of God, especially when the man is praying with focus and without distraction.

Beloved, my counsel is, do not let anything distract you at the place of prayer. When you pray, take your pen and paper with you. Focus on a subject, and as you pray, write down the thoughts that come to you.

Remember this: In prayer, the mind of man becomes saturated with the thought of God.

ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Ask God for the impartation of the spirit of wisdom like Solomon did.
2. Read and carry out divine instructions from God’s Word.

PRAYER: O LORD, I ask for the impartation of the Spirit of wisdom. Saturate my mind with Your wisdom LORD in Jesus’ Name.
