Do You Know People Who Wise In Their Own Eyes!

Do You Know People Who Wise In Their Own Eyes!

Dear Lord, I pray for those who are not wise in their own eyes. In Jesus’s name, amen.

Ever been around a know it all?

This type of person claims to have all the right answers. Although this is not necessarily the case, such a person thinks they have the wisdom to make decisions and tell others what to do.

Proverbs 26:12 (ESV) is about those who think they are wise when their actions prove otherwise.

“Do you see a man who is wise in his own eyes?
There is more hope for a fool than for him.”

Have tendencies toward being a know it all?

Stop. Stop being a fool.

Realize there is wisdom in God’s holy and inspired word. Trust the Lord.

Do not be a person who claims to be wise. Instead, be humble in the face of the Lord.

Know it All?

Know it All?

Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know it is impossible to understand all the thoughts of God. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Some religions claim it is possible to comprehend God’s thoughts. Some go so far as to believe it is possible to become one with God.

For Christians, the Holy Spirit helps believers to navigate life. This does not mean a person can merge with God. Rather, the Holy Spirit provides guidance.

Apostle Paul says in 1 Corinthians 2:9-11 (NLT):

“But, as it is written,

‘What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
nor the heart of man imagined,
what God has prepared for those who love him’—

these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God. For who knows a person’s thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.”

No one can comprehend all the thoughts of God. Stop striving. Don’t try to be a know it all.

Let God be God. Bow before him in awe!
