Hi and welcome to the truth seekers podcast today's episode is part of our

praying the Bible series each month we read a verse or passage from the Bible and

learn how to pray it back to God. Have you ever struggled with

knowing what to say to God when you pray? Sometimes we don't always know how to

pray or what to pray when we're talking to God. The good news is that God has given us the Bible and the

Bible is filled with all kinds of truths that we can pray back to God. When we are at a loss

and don't know how or what to pray, we can turn to the Bible to give us truth

that we can stand on and believe in when we pray to God.

Did you know that when you asked Jesus into your heart you became a child of God?

The Bible says we can have confidence as we come before God and talk to Him in prayer

because He is our father and hears us.

Today's passage from the Bible comes from Proverbs chapter 2

versus 1 through 15.

Proverbs is a book in the Old Testament. Just like the book of Psalms is a collection of songs and prayers unto the Lord. The book of Proverbs is a collection of wisdom on how to live right. And just as David

wrote most of the Psalms, his son Solomon wrote most of the Proverbs.

1 Kings chapter 4 verse 32 says that Solomon wrote 3,000

proverbs in his lifetime. God had given Solomon much wisdom because he had asked for it and so Solomon's wisdom was

collected into the book of proverbs for men and women to read and remember for

generations. Solomon gives wisdom on how to live and how to behave and how to make wise decisions.

We can learn a lot from the wisdom of Solomon.

We can trust that his wisdom is good because it came

directly from God. What is wisdom you ask? Well that's a good question. Wisdom is knowing the right thing to do and then doing it.
