Bible Verse of The Day – 3-21-19

Proverbs 1:7 (NKJV) 7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

God’s word says there is such a thing as fools; People that just don’t want to hear what is right.

Have we ever helped someone through something and never said a word about it, just kept it quiet, so that the person that had done wrong would not get exposed? We were the only ones that knew what took place.

It was OK the first time. But after seeing them repeat it over and over, we realize it was not by mistake that it happened. It was a decision they continued to make. After a while we began to realize they loved what they were indulging in.

When people love what they are doing wrong, there is only so much that we can do to help.

We have to pray and give them completely over to God. We are not saying that He may not use us at times to say something or do something for them sometime down the road. But we truly have to put them in His hands.

He will help them if they are willing to let Him. If not, they will go through their life hurting themselves.

There may be some people that truly want to get it right, and it does take us being patient with them. They may fall back a few times. But there is a difference between them and the ones who just don’t care.

Those who love what they are doing are the fools that the Bible talks about. They have no fear. They don’t want instruction or wisdom. And if we’re not careful, they can pull us down with them.

Be aware of those that have no intentions of changing. They may need to go through some fires before they learn, and we don’t need to watch.
