Turning Chaos Into Calm
Wisdom makes one wise man more powerful than ten rulers in a city.- Ecclesiastes 7:19 (NIV).
Wisdom. Proverbs tells us that wisdom is the principal thing (Proverbs 4:7). This Scripture says it makes us more powerful than ten rulers in a city.
Let’s say you have ten wisdom-challenged rulers governing a city. These people decide on rules that make no sense, such as that bills could only be paid on the second Tuesday of every seventh month of the year and that snow boots could not be worn in the city limits when it snows three months out of the year.
The rules would put the city into chaos, but if the people elect a wise ruler, that person could begin to untangle the entire mess, just as Solomon did, when the two women came to him, arguing over who has the real mother of the infant.
Wisdom, when given from God, can change everything and turn chaos into calm.

Have you received Jesus as your Lord and Saviour? Do you believe Jesus died to pay the price for your sin? That He was raised from the dead? Then just pray aloud, "Lord Jesus, I repent of all my sins. Come into my heart and be my Lord and Saviour." If you believed in your heart and confessed with your mouth, you are Born-again. Let us know if you prayed this prayer.
