“So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom” (Psalm 90:12)

As we approach this day, there is a battle taking place in our hearts. Jesus desires to be Lord of our heart; however, satan desires our heart at well. And, whatever our hearts seek after will win, do we understand that our days are numbered. We are not born to live in this world forever, and wisdom pursues the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. When you think about the death of a young person or the tears we shed during the passing of a loved one helps us to understand how short life really is. James teaches us that “ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away” (James 4:14). My friend, I want to encourage us to number our days and allow our hearts to pursue the wisdom of God, which Solomon said would teach us that all is “vanity”. Father, I pray for our readers this morning that we would set our hearts upon the eternal matter of life in prayer, Bible reading, and the pursuit of Kingdom Work. Be Blessed in Jesus’ Name!
