9 EPH 4:1, 17; 5:2 (NASB) “WALK” Ephesians 4:1 (NASB) - UNITY Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, Ephesians 4:17 (NASB) - PURITY So this I say, and affirm together with the Lord, that you walk no longer just as the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind, Ephesians 5:2 (NASB) - CHARITY and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma.

10 EPH 5:8, 15 (NASB) “WALK” Ephesians 5:8 (NASB) - BRIGHTLY for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light Ephesians 5:15 (NASB) - WISELY Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,

11 WISE LIVING EPH 5:15-21

12 1 KINGS 3:5 At Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon during the night in a dream, and God said, "Ask for whatever you want me to give you."

13 DESIRE WISDOM FROM GOD EPH 5:15- 16

14 EPH 5:15 Be very careful, then, how you live-- not as unwise but as wise,

15 JAM 3:15 Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil.

16 PRAYER FOR INDIFFERENCE In the context of spiritual discernment, indifference is a positive term signifying that “I am indifferent to anything but God’s will.”... We ask God to bring us to a place where we want “God’s will, nothing more, nothing less, nothing else” so that we can pray the prayer of indifference—“Not my will by thine be done.” (p. 63)

17 JAM 1:7-8 That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.

18 EPH 5:16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
