Ecclesiastes 7:12 (KJV) - For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.Wisdom is a powerful shield in life. While wealth and resources may provide temporary protection, wisdom offers lasting security that cannot be shaken by circumstances. It preserves our relationships, guides our choices, and safeguards our destiny. Those who operate in God’s wisdom walk in life, avoiding the traps and pitfalls that ensnare the unwise.The protection of wisdom extends beyond mere survival—it ensures that our decisions are sound, our families are safe, and our ministries and careers are fortified against adversities. It equips us with discernment and foresight, enabling us to navigate challenges successfully and emerge victorious.Today, declare that wisdom will defend you. Speak protection over your mind, body, finances, and spirit, trusting that every step you take is under God’s divine guidance and security.Hold on to this prophetic declaration from Prophet Isaiah Macwealth:I declare that wisdom shall be your defence. Every trap, scheme, and danger shall be turned aside in your favour.To proceed to Praying the Promises, scroll down or click the yellow button below.
