TODAY’S TURNING POINT WITH DR. DAVID JEREMIAH 3RD JANUARY 2026 DAILY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE
Read David Jeremiah Daily Devotional – 3rd January 2026, Saturday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: Wisdom for the Year: Ask God
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. – James 1:5
Recommended Reading: 1 Kings 3:6-14
One wonders if the apostle James had Solomon’s request in mind when he encouraged his readers to ask God for wisdom when needed (James 1:5). As you begin a new year, it’s easy to imagine areas in which wisdom might be needed: personal issues, family matters, financial decisions, job prospects, and more. James likely had in mind the Hebrew notion of wisdom which was “skill” (Hebrew chokmah). When we ask God for wisdom, we are asking Him for skill to navigate a challenging situation. Thankfully, He will give generously and without criticizing.
Whether wisdom (skill) for a day or a year, ask God—He will give “liberally and without reproach.”
The heavens declare Thy glory, Lord; in every star Thy wisdom shines.
Isaac Watts
Thru-the-Bible in One Year: Genesis 9–17
