Bible Commentary

Proverbs 24:27

Wisdom involves right ordering — doing the foundational preparatory work before building. Rushing to the visible goal without completing the necessary preparation leads to an unstable result.

Memory phrase: Prepare first, then build.

Talk about it: Can you think of something you need to prepare before you can build or start something bigger?

Prayer: God, help me do things in the right order with wisdom and patience.
