GOD freely gives out wisdom. His speech is rich with knowledge and understanding.
MATTHEW 11:25-26 (MSG)
Abruptly Jesus broke into prayer: “Thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth. You’ve concealed your ways from sophisticates and know-it-alls, but spelled them out clearly to ordinary people. Yes, Father, that’s the way you like to work.”

PRAYER
Generous God, thank you for sharing your insights with ordinary people. Forgive us for thinking we've figured everything out and have a handle on the future. Slow down my over-active imagination so that I can live in this moment with you and hear what you are or aren't saying. I reject all the forms of fake wisdom that are bombarding us. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
