We Cannot Figure This Out!

Discussion Questions:

1. What does God say to mankind seeking wisdom apart from Him, control freaks, and workaholics (Gen. 3:9, 11-19; 4:6; Judges 2:2; Eccl. 1:3, 14)?
2. How is following man’s wisdom and looking for satisfaction in the world like a “descent into hell” (Prov. 14:12, 16:25).
3. Why is it such an empty pursuit to seek worldly wisdom apart from God’s Word (Prov. 12:15; James 1:2-8)?
4. In what ways are you most tempted to try to lean on your own understanding and what helps you to trust in the Lord with all your heart (Prov. 3:1-6)?
5. What is your motivation for getting up each morning and doing what you’re called to do? (Col. 3:12-25; 1 Thess. 4:9-12).
6. How does a person’s life, words, and actions reveal what their true worldview is? (Matt. 12:33-37; Eph. 4:25-32, 5:15-21).
7. How do you really know that you are agreeing with and aligning with God’s wisdom (Matt. 7:14-27)?
