Praying from 1 Corinthians 3:19. Themes: Wisdom, Foolishness, Craftiness.

Dear God, I thank you that your wisdom surpasses the wisdom of this world. I claim the promise that you have taken the wise in their craftiness. Help me to trust in your wisdom and not rely on my own understanding. May I seek your guidance in all things and follow your ways. Thank you for your faithfulness and for leading me on the path of righteousness. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Verse: For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He has taken the wise in their craftiness.”
1 Corinthians 3:19

This is a Promise. The verse is stating that the wisdom of the world is foolishness to God and that God has taken the wise in their craftiness, implying that relying on worldly wisdom is not the path to true understanding or success.
