10 Key Bible Verses on Wisdom and Discernment
A. Proverbs 1:7 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs+1%3A7&version=ESV)
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.

B. Proverbs 3:5–6 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs+3%3A5%E2%80%936&version=ESV)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

C. James 1:5 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James+1%3A5&version=ESV)
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.

D. Ephesians 5:6–10 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians+5%3A6%E2%80%9310&version=ESV)
Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Therefore do not become partners with them; for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), and try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord.

E. 1 John 4:1 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+John+4%3A1&version=ESV)
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

F. Romans 12:2 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+12%3A2&version=ESV)
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

G. James 3:13–18 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James+3%3A13%E2%80%9318&version=ESV)
Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. This is not the wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

H. Matthew 7:24 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+7%3A24&version=ESV)
"Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

I. Philippians 1:9–10 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Philippians+1%3A9%E2%80%9310&version=ESV)
And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve what is excellent, and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,

J. Romans 11:33–35 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+11%3A33%E2%80%9335&version=ESV)
Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways! "For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been his counselor?" "Or who has given a gift to him that he might be repaid?"
