King Solomon reminds us of the blessings that come when we live wisely according to the Word of God and trust in Him.
He who heeds the word wisely will find good, And whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he. Proverbs 16:20
Living wisely starts with paying attention to the Word of God and not just hearing it but really listening, letting it sink into our hearts, and guiding our actions. When we take the word of God seriously and apply it to our lives, we position ourselves to experience all the blessings that come from living in alignment with the Word.
It is not about being perfect or never making mistakes but about having a heart that desires to follow the Word. When we do this, we can expect to see the fruit of good choices: happiness, peace, joy, and a sense of purpose that the world cannot give.
Knowing the Word and trying to live by it is one thing, but trusting God, especially when life gets tough, is another. Trusting in the Lord means leaning on Him, not on our understanding, and believing that God is working all things for our good, even when we do not see it right away.
This kind of trust leads to true happiness because it frees us from anxiety and fear. We know that God is in control and can have peace no matter what we face.
When you listen to the Word and trust in God, you are promised both goodness and happiness. This does not mean life will be without challenges, but it does mean that you will have the strength and joy to face whatever comes your way. Living wisely leads you on a path that brings happiness from God into your life, and His faithfulness means that you are never alone.
Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your Word, the Bible, where I am never without Your knowledge. I thank You for Your Holy Spirit Who leads me in paths of righteousness. Your Word is alive and is the root that we need to live to honor You. We trust You as our Father, believing Your Word and being guided by Your Holy Spirit. These are the blessings we have. Thank You, Father God. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
