The Turning Point for America #34: Listening to Wisdom and Guarding Knowledge - Proverbs 5:1-2 TS2009

1 My son, listen to my wisdom; Incline your ear to my understanding,

2 So as to watch over discretion, And your lips guard knowledge.

Proverbs 5:1-2 TS2009

“My son, listen to my wisdom; incline your ear to my understanding, so as to watch over discretion, and your lips guard knowledge.” These words of wisdom and instruction resound with timely relevance as America stands at a moral and spiritual crossroads. The call to “listen” and “incline the ear” is more than a plea for obedience—it is a command to tune the heart toward discernment and truth amid a sea of confusion and deception. In today’s world, where noise often drowns out reason and manipulation masquerades as wisdom, this proverb invites America to return to the discipline of divine understanding. To “watch over discretion” means to act with prudence, integrity, and restraint—to weigh the consequences of words and deeds with a heart anchored in righteousness. When lips “guard knowledge,” truth becomes protected rather than perverted, and speech becomes a vessel of healing instead of harm. The turning point for America depends upon rediscovering this posture of humility before wisdom—where leaders seek understanding before judgment, where the people value truth over emotion, and where speech once again serves the purpose of edifying rather than dividing. If America is to endure and be renewed, it must bend its ear once more to the wisdom of the Creator, guarding the truth that sustains liberty and the understanding that preserves justice. Only through such humble submission to divine wisdom can our nation cleanse itself of corruption, deception, and pride that have darkened its vision. Let every heart be stirred to listen anew, that America might once again rise as a people guided not by the clamor of men, but by the quiet, enduring voice of everlasting truth.
