“The mocker seeks wisdom and finds none, but knowledge comes easily to the discerning.”
One of the great things about being a follower of Christ is the availability of God’s wisdom. Think about that truth for a minute. The God, the Creator and Sustainer of life, the One who began it all and has existed and will exist for all eternity, the source of everything—I could go on. That very God offers us unlimited access to Him and His wisdom. Now reread that first sentence. Wow! In this verse, Solomon makes it clear that pride and humility are the keys to either accessing that wisdom or missing it entirely. Pride blocks it, while humility gains access to it. How foolish or blind must someone be to not humbly respond to the invitation to receive all God offers? The mocker is not seeking wisdom for Kingdom reasons. Most often, they simply want to prove that they are right or wise in their own power. The word for “mocker” is also translated as “scoffer.” They scoff at God for being who He is and believe they have access to a wisdom as powerful as His. It is almost too hard to believe that someone can be that foolish. When we look at the supposedly wise people of the world who operate apart from God, they may appear to have success for a season, but ultimately they will suffer for their hubris. Humility is not difficult when we see God for who He is and, in light of that, see ourselves for who we are. Today, humbly seek God in all things. #BeTheEdge

As a minister and counselor, confidentiality is imperative to what I do. As a grandfather, it is a slightly less rigid rule. Whenever I am talking with a person, especially one in crisis, I make it clear that I am legally bound to break confidenti...
“The plans of the righteous are just, but the advice of the wicked is deceitful.”
A friend of mine who was a pastor for many years used to say, “God’s will done God’s way won’t lack God’s blessing.” I believe that 100%. I think Scripture teaches that clearly. Here’s the interesting caveat, as Solomon puts it in this verse: God’...
“The Lord detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with him.”
Over the years, I’ve read and heard lots of messages based on this verse. The majority, by far, focused on the first half. The fact that God detests people who intentionally steal from and rip off others should not surprise us. This morning, I’d l...
