God's Wisdom Bible Verses |
Psalms 1 Blessed is the man that walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in His law does he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he does shall prosper. The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind drives away. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. For the LORD knows the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
Keep away from wicked things:
Psalm 101:3 I will set no wicked thing before my eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.
Keep on doing good to receive good things:
Romans 2:6-9 [God] will render to every man according to his deeds: to them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life: but unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation, and wrath, tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that does evil; of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile.
Do what the Holy Spirit tells you is good, not what the world thinks is good.
Romans 8:5,6,13,14 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death: but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. For if you live after the flesh, you shall die: but if you through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Be careful what you approve as good:
Romans 14:22b Happy is he that condemns not himself in that thing which he allows.
We have the mind of Christ:
1 Corinthians 2:16b But we have the mind of Christ.
Be spiritual and moral adults:
1 Corinthians 14:20 Bretheren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be children, but in understanding be men.
God wants all things to be done in excellence:
1 Corinthians 14:40 Let all things be done decently and in order.
Always strive for perfection to gain favor with God:
2 Timothy 2:20-21 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor. If a man therefore purge himself from [dishonor], he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, and meet for the Master's use, and perpared unto every good work.
Punishment to polish us like jewels:
Hebrews 12:11 (TEV) When we are punished, it seems to us at the time something to make us sad, not glad. Later, however, those who have been disciplined by such punishment reap the peaceful reward of a righteous life.
To avoid temptation, don't let yourself be drawn away:
James 1:14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
The righteous have power through prayer:
James 5:16b The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
How to overcome the world:
1 John 5:5 Who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
