Audio Version
- Proverbs 22:3 “A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.”Foresight is the ability to anticipate and prepare for what lies ahead. As seen in our scriptural text, a prudent person does not wait for trouble to strike before taking action but looks ahead and makes plans to cushion the outcome of certain expected uncertainties.God expects us to develop foresight in every area of our lives—spiritually, financially, through our daily decisions. Those who seek His wisdom are not caught off guard by challenges because they walk in divine insight. While the foolish ignore warning signs, the wise prepare and position themselves for success.
However, developing foresight requires prayer, wisdom, and careful observation. Do not live reactively, instead, seek God’s direction, plan wisely, and take steps today that will lead you into God’s promise. Hallelujah!
