James 3:17-18
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gently willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hyprocrisy.
Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
Devotion.
God’s wisdom leads to peace and harmony, while human wisdom leads to unrighteousness and dis-harmony.
Prayer (for you)
Eternal Father,
How great You are. You are Mighty to save and strong to deliver Your people from sin.
You alone are wise, and Your wisdom leads to peace, to goodness, harmony and peace.
O Lord, I need Your wisdom to be able to do what is godly, good, holy and pleasing in Your Sight.
Lead me in Your way that leads to life eternal through Jesus Christ, my Saviour, my Redeemer, Advocate, Intercessor, Good Shepherd and my Friend.
How wonderful to know that Your wisdom and peace is pure, peaceable, gentle and full of tender mercies.
O Lord, I will always seek You with all my heart, my soul and my mind.
And glorify, honour, magnify and exalt You.
In Jesus’ precious name, I pray. Amen.
Hymn.
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
O, what a fore-taste of glory divine.
Heir of salvation, purchase of God.
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
Chorus.
This is my story, this is my song.
Praising my Saviour all the day long.
This is my story, this is my song.
Praising my Saviour all the day long.
2.
Perfect submission, all is at rest.
I in my Saviour am happy and blest.
Watching and waiting, looking above.
Filled with Hs goodness, lost in His love.
Praising my Saviour, all the day long.
Amen.
