(Matthew 11:19 GNT)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DEVOTIONAL:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People often try to get wealth without wisdom, and wisdom really should come before anything else. In the book of Proverbs, it speaks about wisdom saying, \u201cBy me kings reign, and princes [rulers] decree justice&#8230;I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. Riches and honour&nbsp;<em>are&nbsp;<\/em>with me\u2026\u201d (Proverbs 8:15\u201318). Do you need to know what to do? God\u2019s wisdom gives you that and more. It\u2019s the ability to use knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jesus was criticized for associating with sinners, but He used godly wisdom and got results. \u201cThe Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a man gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified of her children\u201d (Matthew 11:19).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What does the phrase \u201cwisdom is justified of her children\u201d mean? The Good News Translation (GNT) reads, \u201cGod\u2019s wisdom, however, is shown to be true by its results.\u201d In other words, the proof of wisdom is results. Jesus answered His critics, [my paraphrase], \u201cYou tell me that I\u2019m hobnobbing with sinners, but do you see results?\u201d They saw results!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PRAYER:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Father, I pray that Your Word shall guide me in my relationships, my actions, and every situation I encounter today. I thank You that Your wisdom in me shall bring the desired results. In Jesus\u2019 Name, Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This devotional is excerpted from Bill Winston\u2019s book,&nbsp;<em>Tapping the Wisdom of God<\/em>.
