the wisdom of God

The wisdom of God
As we look at our country today we are ever hastily forsaking the wisdom of God and we are exchanging it for the wisdom of man. We now are ridiculing, slandering and ultimately rejecting His wisdom. This trend is running rampant through all segments of our society, even into the church.

As Proverb 1 indicates:

For those who disregard God’s wisdom -
How long, O naive ones, will you love being simple-minded?
And scoffers delight themselves in scoffing and fools hate knowledge?
Because I called and you refused, I stretched out my hand and no one paid attention;
And you neglected all my counsel and did not want my reproof

When distress and anguish come upon you then they will call on me, but I will not answer;
They will seek me diligently but they will not find me, because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD
They would not accept my counsel, they spurned all my reproof. So they shall eat of the fruit of their own way and be satiated with their own devices.
For the waywardness of the naive will kill them and the complacency of fools will destroy them.

And here is the promise for those who desire and seek after His wisdom -
Turn to my reproof, Behold, I will pour out my spirit on you; I will make my words known to you.
For he who listens to me shall live securely and will be at ease from the dread of evil.

May we seek after the true source of wisdom and not be lead astray by the wisdom that will ultimately destroy.
For the path is wide that leads to destruction…and man’s wisdom is the road map that provides the directions for that path.
There is a narrow path leads to life and God has promised that He will provide us with the directions if we are willing to listen and obey.
