May 5 Evening Devotional | How To Find Wisdom | Morning and Evening by Charles Spurgeon
Evening, May 5 | “He who gives attention to the word will find good, and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord.” —Proverbs 16:20 (NASB)
This Morning's Scripture Reading: Proverbs 16:20-23 (NASB)
He who gives attention to the word will find good,
And blessed is he who trusts in the Lord.
The wise in heart will be called understanding,
And sweetness of speech increases persuasiveness.
Understanding is a fountain of life to one who has it,
But the discipline of fools is folly.
The heart of the wise instructs his mouth
And adds persuasiveness to his lips.
Devotional Video Transcript:
Wisdom is man’s true strength; and, under its guidance, he best accomplishes the ends of his being. Wisely handling the matter of life gives to man the richest enjoyment, and presents the noblest occupation for his powers; hence by it he finds good in the fullest sense.
Without wisdom, man is like a wild donkey, running here and there, wasting strength that might be profitably employed. Wisdom is the compass by which man is to steer across the trackless waste of life; without it, he is a derelict vessel, the sport of winds and waves. A man must be prudent in such a world as this, or he will find no good, but be betrayed into unnumbered ills. The pilgrim will sorely wound his feet among the briers of the wood of life if he does not pick his steps with the utmost caution. He who is in a wilderness infested with robber bands must handle matters wisely if he would journey safely.
If, trained by the Great Teacher, we follow where he leads, we shall find good even while in the darkness, and celestial fruits to be gathered, and songs of paradise to be sung amid the groves of earth. But where shall this wisdom be found? Many have dreamed of it, but have not possessed it. Where shall we learn it? Let us listen to the voice of the Lord, for he has declared the secret; he has revealed to the sons of men wherein true wisdom lies, and we have it in the text, “blessed is he who trusts in the Lord.” The true way to handle a matter wisely is to trust in the Lord. This is the sure clue to the most intricate labyrinths of life, follow it and find eternal bliss. He who trusts in the Lord has a diploma for wisdom granted by inspiration: happy is he now, and happier shall he be above. Lord, in this sweet evening, walk with me in the garden and teach me the wisdom of faith.
