I am so excited to be a part of what God is doing in your life. God has an amazing design for each and every one of us! Let’s talk about the Word, the plan of God for your life, and how to live as a successful, strong Christian on this earth. Join me as we continue to grow in His Word and walk strong in the promises of God!

Proverbs 31:26 “She opens her mouth with skillful and godly Wisdom, and on her tongue is the law of kindness-giving counsel and instruction.”

The word, “skillful” means, having a great ability and expertise that comes from training and practice. Part of walking in wisdom to become skillful we must allow ourselves to be trained. We need to learn how to work in certain areas. Through the practice of doing something over and over and over, we learn how to do it. It is as simple as that. In the natural there are different examples, such as, when our children are learning how to walk, they will fall down. Do we expect them to fall down? Yes. That is not unbelief or a negative confession, its reality. We also learn many things by falling down. I don’t mean we learn how to be humble by God breaking our arm… no, I am not talking about that. Possibly a person asks us what to do about a situation and we share our solution. But, then later, we listened to somebody teach and they said, “In this situation, this is the best thing to do.” We think, “Oh my, I told them to do the opposite.” Skilled wisdom gets training from other situations and then turns it around and helps people.

There are three things to remember when learning from this scripture: First, we do have some knowledge.  Most of us already have wisdom in certain areas.  We have already grown some as Christians.  Second, we will get skillful and godly wisdom from just plain learning, trying, working, experiencing and speaking.  As we mature and grow, we gain more insight.  Third, we must open our mouths and allow the Spirit of God to talk through us.  More often than not we never know that it happened.  I have had people come to me and say, “You said this to me and I could not believe it.” I have prayed for people before and they have come back a month later and proceeded to tell me what I prayed for and I think, “Skillful and godly wisdom and the law of instruction and counsel came right from my mouth and I had no knowledge of it.”  It came forth because of the Spirit of God.  As mighty men and women of God, let’s move out in the Spirit and allow His wisdom to pour forth from our mouths.
