The Word For You Today
WEDNESDAY JUNE 3
“She perceives that her merchandise is good.” Pr 31:18 NKJV
WHAT YOU HAVE IS GOOD
Let’s look at four liberating truths in this Scripture: (1) “She perceives that her merchandise is good.” She is not looking for validation or approval of her merchandise. When you’re insecure and don’t value what you have, others may be able to minimize it and convince you that it’s not worth much. This woman, like all of us, desires acceptance and validation, but she will not seek it or find herself debilitated if she doesn’t get it. (2) “She perceives that her merchandise is good.” To perceive is to sense and know inwardly. She understands what she brings to the table and inwardly values it. She will not doubt the value of its worth; neither will she find it necessary to brag about the quality of her merchandise. She will not have her nose turned up in pride, but neither will she have her eyes cast down with false humility. She simply has a balanced and healthy view of her wares. (3) “She perceives that her merchandise is good.” Here is someone who’s not intimidated by or unduly concerned about the goods of other merchants. Consequently, she doesn’t spend her energies comparing and competing. (4) “She perceives that her merchandise is good.” She’s not stuck in the past, thinking about the good merchandise she used to have. Neither is she postponing the pursuit of her goals until her merchandise is perfect. She simply steps out in faith, having done the best she could. Her merchandise is good today; tomorrow is in God’s hands. Anxiety has no place in her life. So the word for you today is—what you’ve got is good!
