The Beginning of Wisdom

By Zelford D. Irions Sr

In 1 Kings 3:9, Solomon asked God to give him wisdom to govern the people. God loved the fact that Solomon asked for wisdom, and he gave him riches and honor. Solomon was the wisest king ever. In the book of Proverbs, Solomon had a lot to say about wisdom. This book contains scriptures from Proverbs. Each day has a verse and advice to apply the verse to your life. Its okay to know what the Bible says about wisdom, but you have to know how it applies to your life today. This book is very simple, and its so easy that anyone can understand it. As you read this book and apply the Scriptures, your life will be changed. Also included is a prayer and testimony journal. This will help the reader to pray about making wise decisions and to write down testimonies about the result of wisdom. This will change your life forever.

By reading this book you will learn:

How to make sound decisions

How to be prepared for the future

How to expand the wisdom that God has given you

And much more.
