God or Fool

DEVOTION PROVERBS GOD OR FOOL Prov 15:14 14 The discerning heart seeks knowledge, but the mouth of a fool feeds on folly. NIV So many of the scholars have decided not to investigate this saying due to it seemingly being repetitive to some previous proverb, but it must be important enough to God to say it again. The folly on which the fool feeds is surely the wisdom of this world. To devoir and digest the foolishness of this world is simply unacceptable to God. This foolishness extent to a variety of concepts mankind has devised to live by. Whether it is a moral code, a financial plan, a science theory or simply a life plan when it is not centered on the Word of God and His plan for man, it is folly. True those who feed on it think it is the best thing they have ever tasted, but they have not tasted to see that the Lord is good for blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. Through David, God declared those who fear, revere the Lord will lack nothing. He says the lions, the fools may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. Anyone who feeds on the uncertain wisdom of this world will indeed go hungry for they will not get to eat from the tree of life. They will in fact taste death instead. But the discerning heart seeks the truth within the Word of God and knows that through the writer of the letter to the Hebrews God declared that Jesus already tasted death for everyone, so that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life and thus eat from the tree of life. Fools simply go on their merry way feasting on the stupidity feed to them by Satan in hopes they will never hunger after the Word of God and thus join him in his misery. Maybe he still thinks he can win against God, if he shows Him how many fools he has gathered unto himself, trying to prove God’s creation is flawed, and so God is not as perfect as He is. Yet the fact remains, God is perfect and those who seek after him have discerned this truth and see Satan for what he is, a fool. Once again the choice is clear, God over fool equals life, fool over God equal death.
