Proverbs 8 - Praying God's Word


Please read Proverbs 8.
www.blueletterbible.org/nasb/pro/8/1/s_636001
Meditate on verse 13.

The fear of the LORD is to hate evil; pride and arrogance
and the evil way and the perverted mouth, I hate.

Pray Proverbs 8 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“LORD, let ______ and me possess Your wisdom.
Let us speak noble things;
 let the opening of our lips reveal right things.
Let our mouths utter truth,
 and let wickedness be an abomination to our lips.
Let all the utterances of our mouth be in righteousness;
 let there be nothing crooked or perverted in them.
  LORD, Your wisdom is straightforward to us
 who understand and right to us who find knowledge.
 May we choose Your instruction and not silver;
may we choose knowledge rather than choicest gold.
 For Your wisdom is better than jewels,
and all desirable things cannot compare with her.
 LORD, let us dwell in wisdom, prudence, knowledge,
 discretion, and the fear of You.
 Let us hate evil, pride, arrogance, and the perverted mouth.
 LORD, give us Your counsel, sound wisdom,
 understanding, and power. 
Let us love Your wisdom and diligently seek her,
 for in her are riches, honor,
 enduring wealth, and righteousness.
 Her fruit is better than pure gold,
 and her yield is better than choicest silver.
 In Your wisdom is the way of righteousness
and the paths of justice.
 Endow us with wealth as we love Your wisdom.
 Let her fill our treasuries.
 LORD, let us listen to Your wisdom,
for blessed are those who keep her ways.
 Let us heed instruction and be wise;
do not let us neglect it.
 Bless us as we listen to Your wisdom.
 Let us watch daily at her gates
and wait at her doorposts. 
For those who find her find life
 and obtain favor from You,
but those who sin against
Your wisdom injure themselves;
 those who hate her love death. 
LORD, we want Your life and favor!
 Give us Your wisdom!
In Your name, Jesus~”
