I Corinthians 3:19 NIV

"For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God's sight. As it is written: "He catches the wise in their craftiness."

 

We must always remember that God sees and knows far more than we do. No matter how much experience we have had or how much insight we have gained on a subject, there is One who understands better.

Men do extensive research and come up with answers.

They perform scientific testing and come up with solutions. Nevertheless, they continue to change their minds, as new evidence which contradicts previous discoveries is found. Something is revealed to alter what they thought  were conclusive findings.

It is most disgusting to see humans come up with "answers" that contradict God's Word. That is the ultimate stupidity. In any event, God is not moved by man's  feeble attempt to show how smart or self-sufficient he is. He continues to baffle their minds, often using less educated, less skilled people who trust and rely on Him for insight. He shows what they consider foolish advice to be superior to their diligent studies.

If we want to stay ahead in life and receive the  best advice, we must not rely solely on man's wisdom. God can use something foolish to humiliate those who act as though they do not need Him. God's wisdom does not always make sense to the carnal mind, but it will always be the best advice, if we want to guarantee success.

To stay ahead, let us seek God's face continually. We can avoid blunders and humiliation by submitting our intelligence to the source of all true wisdom.



I will seek God's face continually. I will receive and act on the wisdom He shares with me and continue to succeed in life.
