We’re thrilled to tell you that our newest (in)courage Bible study, Create in Me a Heart of Wisdom, is now available! Cue the confetti! This Bible study features the real-life, going-first kind of stories you know and love from our (in)courage writers and an in-depth yet accessible Scripture study — like the excerpt we’re sharing below, written by Grace P. Cho. Read on for a taste of Create in Me a Heart of Wisdom:
“The Lord brought me forth as the first of his works, before his deeds of old; I was formed long ages ago, at the very beginning, when the world came to be.”
Proverbs 8:22–23
Raise your hand if you reach for your phone, open up a browser, and ask Google for the answer to every question you have. Whether we’re searching for solutions to everyday problems, like how to unclog a sink drain, or searching for answers to more serious matters, like what side effects are caused by a parent’s cancer medication, the internet has become our source of help, hope, knowledge, and wisdom. First of all, let’s thank God for access to such a wealth of information! But then let’s ask ourselves, How often do we turn to Google instead of God for wisdom?
I’m raising my hand right there with you! It’s easy to turn to every other reliable source out there when we need guidance in understanding something. Trusting what’s tangible is simpler than having faith in the unseen — and sometimes that’s okay! God has given us tools, resources, friends, and mentors to help us live well, but we want to make sure that our ultimate source of understanding knowledge is the wisdom of God.
The Bible consists of sixty-six books written by various authors and in different genres. One genre is wisdom literature, which includes Job, Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes. Together, these books share practical insights into how to live wisely.
In Proverbs 8:1–9, God’s wisdom is personified as a woman who stands at the city gates and urges us to listen and heed her call. Let’s take a deep breath, settle in, and listen to what she has to say to us today.
Read Proverbs 8 in its entirety. What parts stand out to you about Wisdom and why?
Wisdom offers herself fully, freely, and generously to anyone who will listen and choose her — regardless of our beliefs, status, life experiences, or background. And whether we’re aware of it or not, wisdom is applied by people every single day in all spheres of life — whether it’s by kings and rulers, as verses 15–16 tell us, or by the special needs teacher who’s figuring out how to care for and educate her students well, or by the employee who wants to hold their manager accountable for inappropriate behavior, or by the young woman who notices the toxic behavior of a friend and doesn’t know what to do. Everyone needs wisdom to live this life well.
For each sticky situation we find ourselves in and for all the knowledge we need help understanding, we have access to the ultimate source of insight we need: the wisdom of God.
God’s wisdom is necessary for people to survive and flourish and fully enjoy life. His wisdom is our ultimate guide and has been since the very beginning of time. Thus, our passage for today:
“The Lord brought me forth as the first of his works,
before his deeds of old;
I was formed long ages ago,
at the very beginning, when the world came to be.”
Proverbs 8:22–23
The wisdom of God created boundaries where there was formlessness, light where there was darkness, and order out of chaos. And as God delighted over each day’s work, so did wisdom (v.31).
Now, in the same way, wisdom continues the work of shaping and creating, ordering and delighting, and giving us life when we live according to her instructions. Better than Google, wisdom is accessible to all, giving us structure and guidelines by which we can thrive.
It boils down to this: all we’ve got is God, and to begin to live wisely, we fear Him (Prov. 1:7) and obey His commandments. This doesn’t mean we need to be afraid of Him. It means that we understand who He is and who we are — He is God, and we are not. We live, struggle through, and enjoy this one life we have while being in awe of Him. And we heed His words to us, choosing to walk in His love, grace, and wisdom.
Let’s ask and seek God for wisdom, knowledge, and understanding because He is our greatest source for them all.
God, I love that from the very beginning of this world Your wisdom has been present, woven into everything we see and enjoy. I know nothing is guaranteed in life, even the goodness and well-being that could come with wisdom. But knowing that You are the source of all wisdom gives me the confidence to navigate any situation. Even when there doesn’t seem to be a way out, You can see a way through, and I trust You. I pray that my ears would be open to hear wisdom’s call so that in everything I do, I can live wisely. Amen.

What a great meditation! I agree 100% and I’m concerned about it in my own life and my loved ones. May God’s wisdom, His Word, His principles be our foundation to filter all other sources of knowledge. We need to stay updated, always learning and seeking for answers to our life needs and struggles. May our hearts be ready to listen to God’s voice above any other voice.
Elizabeth says

Sarla Williams says
Wow I got so excited when I saw this thinking it was an online Bible study!
I have made this verse from Ps.90 my verse to dwell on this year.
“Teach me to number my days aright so that I may gain a heart of wisdom.” And then reading through Proverbs for my Quiet time I find it referred to again…this heart of wisdom. His wisdom.
Thank you so much for this article. It resonates with me as I am learning to intentionally look less at my smart phone or the internet.
Sarla , Sri Lanka
Diane Lodge says
I need wisdom in leading others to Christ. I believe we are in the end times and my heart aches for those unsaved. Without being a fanatical “crazy” Christian, I want to lead a life that exemplifies Christ and causes people to seek Him.
Erin says
Where don’t I need wisdom? In parenting a lost young man, making baby steps into my tiny art buisness, living with chronic migraine… If nothing else there are plenty of opportunities for God to show me who he is. 🙂
Rhonda says
Recently, I have felt such conviction over the things in my heart. They aren’t the big things that would ruin your life; they’re the little things that add up and show you that you need to pay attention. My heart needs wisdom. I need a guard over my heart, I need a clean heart.
Thank you for such a wonderful devotion reminding me how powerful His wisdom is!

I received my copy yesterday and can’t wait to get started! If I won the bundle I would love to share it with my best friend! I definitely need wisdom in navigating my marriage struggles. They have been ongoing for decades with no end in sight and I have prayed earnestly through every one of those decades. I am committing anew to dive even deeper into God’s word and claiming the verse Isaiah 43:19 and looking so earnestly for those rivers and roads in my wilderness this year and praying for miracles to come for my adult daughters who need to come back to Jesus!
Deanne Metzloff says
I need wisdom in my professional life. I live the organization I work for but am not loving the work I am doing and finding my frustration spilling out at times.
Kathy Francescon says
I need God’s wisdom to show my husband that He so needs to be saved by the blood of Jesus. He is a good person. He is giving, caring and kind, a hard worker and a good provider. But sometimes, he depends on his own power instead of God’s. I am trying so hard to be a good light to him. I pray and long for a Christian home. I long for us to worship and praise and pray together. To attend church and be a part of God’s Kingdom, always putting God first in our lives, together, here on earth. A three fold cord that can never be broken. I pray for wisdom to bring lost souls to the glory of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Thank you, Incourage, for the guidance and encouragement that your articles inspire in seeking the wisdom of God. Blessings to every author and every reader. May we all grow and depend only on God’s wisdom, here on earth.

I need wisdom before offering advice to my friends.I tend to rely on my emotions when responding to people. Many of the folks who I encounter are struggling with loss, health issues and/or family problems. God is always there to give us wisdom, I need only to ask.
T. Jones says
I am seeking God’s wisdom in my life as I approach my 60th birthday this summer. My husband passed away recently at 60 years of age and although I don’t admit it, I worry about walking through this year. I want God to show me how to live my best self and that includes my spiritual life, my career, financial situation, and my health. I want to live by God’s wisdom leading me in all areas of my life and not be afraid of what God has for me next.
Anita says
Love what I just read! Sometimes we need reminders =). I need wisdom in my family situation – my children and the division that has come in. I know God is able and He is in the midst working. It is hard in the waiting and it is hard trying to maneuver how to minister to each one separately. God I need You every second of the day!

Sharon McRoy says
I struggle with knowing when to speak, what NOT to say, discernment while ministering to others in need and the best ways to meet the need, dealing with “sandpaper” Christians at work . . . and frustration. “Unplugging” myself from the news and plugging myself into God’s word helps provide balance and objectivity, but I always feel as if something is missing.

D says
I need wisdom in dealing with transitioning into a caregiver role many years ahead of when I thought this role would start.
Angela says
I have been seeking God’s wisdom about a relationship that is currently estranged. I really messed up months ago when, instead of turning to God, I turned, not to Google, but to friends and acquaintances. Instead of trusting that since God brought me to it, He would surely bring me through it, I went in search of “advice” and “counsel” from others who did not fully know the other person involved, or the circumstances. Instead of going straight to the person and communicating my concerns, I went to everyone else. Instead of thinking on “whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable” (Phil 4 8-9), I thought about the worst-case-scenario. By the time I realized what I had done, it was too late. It was too late for me, but it’s not to late for God. I’m believing for a miracle and praying for the wisdom to know when to reach out.
Linda Jones says
At this time in my life I need God’s strength more than ever my mother-in-law is dying I need his wisdom and strength to help me and my husband to get through this she is not eating or drinking and we have told her God and her relatives are waiting for her. She is hanging on. Thank you.

Pam Cybulski says
I pray for wisdom to do the right things even when they are the hard things. Addiction has ruled my son’s life for so long, and I have failed to do the things that would probably help him the most out of fear. I need the strength and wisdom to do what is best and let go and let God.
Heidi says
I need wisdom in relationships with others. I have a situation where I really need wisdom. I guess several situations if I am honest. I keep on praying about it and sometimes praying about it with tears. Many times with tears! Then I give it over to God. I have been surprised twice now with this situation in the past two weeks in a good way. I have been wanting that CSB Devotional Bible for years. Thank you for providing another opportunity to win!

grace says
We have been doing a small family devotion and beed doing reading of Proverbs. “Wisdom calls out in the street, she lifts her voice in the square” I just love how wisdom is portraying as someone calls out for people to listen. I am not surprised that Salomon asked for wisdom. Maybe because I am a wife and mom, I realized now more than ever how important walking with God and His wisdom is. In decision making, in relationship, in so many aspect of our life. Thank you for sharing this and the chance to win the

Paula Schlotterbeck says
Amen to that!
Beth Williams says
In Courage,
So often we turn to Google, phones, friends for answers first. Then we say “I tried that now all I have left is prayer”. Why don’t we pray first & seek God’s wisdom? I need wisdom for my job situation. Even though God gave me this job in Dec. 2021-it has completely changed from what I was doing. Not happy at all. Trying to find the right position for my personality & skills. Deep down I know God will take care of this for me. Also have a minor injury (trigger finger) that I need to get fixed.
Abba Father, Send a discerning heart & mind to ALL the women here. They need it in various areas of their lives. Guide & direct their steps. Shower them with your love & grace in these trying times. In Jesus Name AMEN!
Blessings 🙂
Paula Schlotterbeck says
I need God’s wisdom to help me set some much needed boundaries in a strained relationship. The idea of setting boundaries is scary to me, but I know things cannot continue the way they are going now. I pray that the love we have for each other and the love God has for both of us will help us have a healthy relationship!

It’s been an amazing, wonderful, provided for journey. I’ve no idea what God will have for me next, but I trust Him and am very grateful.

I need the wisdom to listen to what God is telling me each and every day.
Lisa says
Thanks (In)Courage! I need wisdom all over the joint if I’m honest LOL… but if I had to pin-point a specific area I’d say in my career/job/position as we’re migrating with a newly purchased company. Migrations are difficult but also scary; as you learn new things and pray you will make the cut and that new leaders will see the value you bring to your role. I’ve been praying for grace to accept all of the newness and the ability to shine the Lord in all of these new areas to so many new people. Thanks for shining a light to those of us who tune in daily to read your encouragement.
Brandi says
I need wisdom in general everyday life
Barbra B says
I so need the Lord’s wisdom concerning medical decisions.

Yes, I research and then pray, but want to seek His wisdom first! Thank you for sharing these words of wisdom.
Marcene Saxman says

My son recently got married and my daughter-in-law and I are having trouble communicating. We both seem to hurt each others feelings a lot. It was a quick moving relationship – they married after only knowing each other for 8 months before getting married and I only knew her for about 4 months. She is a very sweet girl, but we always seem to say the wrong things to each other. I need help with learning how to better talk with her.
Annette says
Hello,
I am truly seeking wisdom as I am helping teend and parents navigate life post covid . I work in a school and the teens particulary seniors whose high school experience has been greatly impacted are feeling very anxious about life and college. Parents aren’t the same because they feel as those their own kids are strangers.

Christie Kang says
Right now? Have to say it’s just been difficult with being in a new season of life where things look different and am not always around people who believe in God.

Molli says
I am trying to rely on God for wisdom and answers to my questions. I am a Googler! I Google everything. And if I admit it, I do reach for Google first instead of my bible and I need and want it to be the other way around. I love Jesus and want to live for Him in all I do, say, read, think.

The Create in Me books have been on my wishlist! Where don’t I need wisdom right now!?!? With parenting teen and preteen daughters and in finances. Also, working in a school, I hear about many of the situations that families are going through (divorce, depression, custody arguments, surgeries, illnesses, etc) and, while I am not expected to have answers to all of the problems, I need wisdom when talking to these families and being sensitive to this kiddos when they are dealing with big emotions that are too much for them to handle.

Leah L. says
I need wisdom from God regarding parenting! I have three lovely children who each have their one personalities. I often have other people tell how delightful and kind my children are and I will comment back something negative about my child. It never fails. It’s like I cannot enjoy them and love them for all they are. I love them with my whole heart and often feel like I am quick to anger, inpatient and feel like I am not guiding them the way God wants me too. What warms my heart and soul is when my children tell me that they wouldn’t trade me for another mother and love having me as their mom. That comfort allows me to realize that I am doing something right.

For several months, I’ve been dealing with crippling anxiety out of nowhere. The clouds are slowly parting, and I’m starting to do some driving to at least pick up my kids from school, but I’m unable to go into stores by myself yet. I’m also have issues with my foot/calf. My husband and parents have had to support me a lot and help with the kids. I’ve been 100% healthy all my life so this has been a very lonely, scary time for me. I need God’s wisdom regarding next steps with my healing journey.
