Who Are the Fools?
“Watch now, as I will rescue My Beloved Israel.
Do not think that what appears is always as it seems.
Remember, I see, hear, know, and understand everything. I know the heart of everyone.
There is no trickery to fool ALMIGHTY GOD, only a fool would think he could do so.
And there are definitely some fools among mankind.
Fools who think they are hidden from Me or who have let their pride get in the way, or quash any humility they may have.
Fools who think they see the whole picture, but they are so wrong. Only I see the full picture.
So they do, say, and think, without seeking Me.
Fools who lie, cheat, and steal, because they think they are getting away with whatever they’re doing. But the ones they hurt the most are themselves and their loved ones. “
“A highway shall be there, and a way; and it shall be called the Holy Way. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it shall be for the redeemed; the wayfaring men, yes, the simple ones and fools, shall not err in it and lose their way.” Isaiah 35:8.
“Keep your foot [give your mind to what you are doing] when you go [as Jacob to sacred Bethel] to the house of GOD. For to draw near to hear and obey is better than to give the sacrifice of fools [carelessly, irreverently] too ignorant to know that they are doing evil.” Ecclesiastes 5:1.
“It is better for a man to hear the rebuke of the wise than to hear the song of fools.
6 For like the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool. This also is vanity (emptiness, falsity, and futility)!……
…….. Do not be quick in spirit to be angry or vexed, for anger and vexation lodge in the bosom of fools.” Ecclesiastes 7:5-6,9.
“A wise man’s heart turns him toward his right hand, but a fool’s heart toward his left…….
…….. The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious and win him favor, but the lips of a fool consume him.” Ecclesiastes 10:2,12.
“As a dog returns to his vomit, so a fool returns to his folly.” Proverbs 26:11.
“The reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord is the beginning and the principal and choice part of knowledge [its starting point and its essence]; but fools despise skillful and godly Wisdom, instruction, and discipline.” Proverbs 1:7.
“The wise shall inherit glory (all honor and good) but shame is the highest rank conferred on [self-confident] fools.” Proverbs 3:35.
“Satisfied desire is sweet to a person; therefore it is hateful and exceedingly offensive to [self-confident] fools to give up evil [upon which they have set their hearts].” Proverbs 13:19.
“He who leans on, trusts in, and is confident of his own mind and heart is a [self-confident] fool, but he who walks in skillful and godly Wisdom shall be delivered.” Proverbs 28:26.
“He leads [great and scheming] counselors away stripped and barefoot and makes the judges fools [in human estimation, by overthrowing their plans].” Job 12:17.
“But if any person’s work is burned up [under the test], he will suffer the loss [of it all, losing his reward], though he himself will be saved, but only as [one who has passed] through fire.” 1 Corinthians 3:15.
“What is sad is that some of the above fools, mankind has chosen as their leaders, both knowingly and unknowingly.
So in choosing them, are they greater fools for being taken in, or assuming, or trusting mankind or followers to believe the lies, deception, and trickery that were put before them?
If mankind would only seek Me First and wait for My Answer.
Instead, many want answers like they want their microwave food. They foolishly don’t wait on Me, but move ahead of Me in disobedience.
If they waited on Me, they wouldn’t get into or be in all the trouble they are in.
For truly, I do know everything. No one gets by Me, or gets away with anything from Me. There are always rewards or consequences for your Words, deeds, and thoughts.
The only reprieve is Mine, through mankind’s repentance, My salvation, mercy and grace. But still it is always My Choice, not mankind’s to prevent or suspend any consequences. I have the final say.
So I say again, Seek Me for the answers, so you do not become a fool or walk into a trap. For the enemy has waiting many traps to capture as many of My Beloveds as possible.
He won’t give up until it is over. Neither should any of you.
Choose to seek Me, and wait for My answer, so you can walk in the wisdom I want for each of you.”
“If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God [Who gives] to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or fault finding, and it will be given him.” James 1:5.
“I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom and ability, in understanding and intelligence, and in knowledge, and in all kinds of craftsmanship,” Exodus 31:3
“The reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord brings instruction in Wisdom, and humility comes before honor.” Proverbs 15:33.
“How much better it is to get skillful and GODLY Wisdom than gold! To get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.” Proverbs 16:16.
“Hear counsel, receive instruction, and accept correction, that you may be wise in the time to come.” Proverbs 19:20.
God Bless You!
