This is not enough.We might think that wisdom is powerful. Many people think these things, and some of them are fools.‘You believe in one God. This is not good enough! Even the devils believe in one God. They are afraid of him.’ (James 2:19)We should love wisdom; and we should love God.Verse 24If you desire the right things, then God will give them to you. If you desire wisdom, then God will give wisdom to you.In the same way, a wicked person will suffer the troubles that worry him. He is afraid of death and hell. His wicked behaviour will bring him to death and hell. He will lose everything.Who is considered a fool by Proverbs? A fool is someonewho mock’s Yahweh’s Scriptures, who disobeys God’sCommandments, who rebels against Yahweh’s authority or whodoesn’t even believe in God.Whatever pleasure a fool does is therefore wicked.However, if a person has an understanding of how andwhy Yahweh created the world and all humans, that person willnaturally love God’s Wisdom.Wicked people have only their own resources to try tosucceed in this Creation. It isn’t surprising, when confronted withthe vastness of Creation, wicked people are overwhelmed by theirfears.Righteous people understand their Creator’s love forthem, so it is natural that righteous people’s desires are grantedthem.Contemplate: How fearful are you? Are there timeswhen your fears almost overwhelm you? What can be done?If you want daily truth in a raw, simple format… come follow us on TikTok at Wisdom for the Day — RAW.Real truth. Real moments.
