Message Notes
Steps of Wisdom
June 26, 2022
Proverbs 1:1-2 (NLT)
1 These are the proverbs of Solomon, David’s son, king of Israel.
2 Their purpose is to teach people wisdom and discipline, to help them understand the insights of the wise.
Proverbs 1:3 (NLT)
Their purpose is to teach people to live disciplined and successful lives, to help them do what is right, just, and fair.
Proverbs 1:4-6 (NLT)
4 These proverbs will give insight to the simple, knowledge and discernment to the young.
5 Let the wise listen to these proverbs and become even wiser. Let those with understanding receive guidance
6 by exploring the meaning in these proverbs and parables, the words of the wise and their riddles.
How to let the potholes of life steer you to find your spiritual hunger:
1. Recall Who God is
Proverbs 1:7 (NLT)
7 Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.
Hebrews 12:28-29 (NLT)
28 Since we are receiving a Kingdom that is unshakable, let us be thankful and please God by worshiping him with holy fear and awe.
29 For our God is a devouring fire.
2. Recall how lost you are on your own
Proverbs 3:5-7 (NIV)
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil.
Proverbs 1:24 (NLT)
24 “I called you so often, but you wouldn’t come. I reached out to you, but you paid no attention.
Proverbs 1:25-33 (NLT)
25 You ignored my advice and rejected the correction I offered.
26 So I will laugh when you are in trouble! I will mock you when disaster overtakes you—
27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster engulfs you like a cyclone, and anguish and distress overwhelm you.
28 “When they cry for help, I will not answer. Though they anxiously search for me, they will not find me. 29 For they hated knowledge and chose not to fear the Lord.
30 They rejected my advice and paid no attention when I corrected them.
31 Therefore, they must eat the bitter fruit of living their own way, choking on their own schemes.
32 For simpletons turn away from me—to death. Fools are destroyed by their own complacency.
33 But all who listen to me will live in peace, untroubled by fear of harm.”
3. Make God’s wisdom your priority
Proverbs 2:1-5 (NLT)
1 My child, listen to what I say, and treasure my commands.
2 Tune your ears to wisdom, and concentrate on understanding.
3 Cry out for insight, and ask for understanding.
4 Search for them as you would for silver; seek them like hidden treasures.
5 Then you will understand what it means to fear the Lord, and you will gain knowledge of God.
Proverbs 2:6 (NLT)
6 For the Lord grants wisdom!
1 Corinthians 1:24, 30 (NLT)
24 But to those called by God to salvation Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.
30 For our benefit God made him to be wisdom itself. Christ made us right with God; he made us pure and holy, and he freed us from sin.
