†Prayer for the Day†

Lord Jesus, help me not to be counted among the foolish that perish. Help my wisdom to be the wisdom of God and not of man and teach me the right way.

Daily Reading

Psalm 49:1-10 (King James Version)

 ¹Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world:
 ²Both low and high, rich and poor, together.
 ³My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.
 ⁴I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp.
 ⁵Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?
 ⁶They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
 ⁷None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
 ⁸(For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)
 ⁹That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.
 ¹⁰For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
