Proverbs 29:9
“If a wise man contends with a foolish man, Whether the fool rages or laughs, there is no peace.”
As soon as I hear how one speaks and replies, I know what type of person I’m dealing with. I don’t get into the back and forth. I’ll end it and leave it right where it is. I don’t have to be right. I don’t have to prove my point. I don’t have to make you feel less than. If our conversation has no hope in ending in love then I’m cool. You can have it. In the Script for today, it says if a wise man contends with a foolish man, there is no peace. If you know me then you know I’m all about peace. Taking the high road. In proverbs there are many verses that speak on being a fool and or becoming like one.
Proverbs 14:16: "A fool is reckless and careless.”
Proverbs 18:2: "A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion.”
Proverbs 26:4-5: "Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you yourself will be just like him. Answer a fool according to his folly, or he will be wise in his own eyes.”
Proverbs 29:11 11 A fool vents all his feelings,
But a wise man holds them back.
These are just a couple. I tell all my people if they want to be wise read a proverb a day. It lines up perfectly with the days of the month so it makes it easier.
In closing, follow peace. Don’t become like a fool. He’s coming
If you are not saved or know someone that isn’t saved and what I mean by saved is believe that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior please follow the ABC’s of salvation below by repeating.
Accountability- say, Dear God, I am a sinner,
Believe- I believe Jesus Christ is the son of God and that he died for all of my sins, past, present, and future and finished the work on the cross.
Confess- I believe that you resurrected from the grave on the 3rd day and confess you as Lord and Savior of my life. Heavenly Father thank you for sending Jesus to die in my place and I am now the Righteousness of God through Christ Jesus.
“that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”
Romans 10:9
