WE ARE IN GREAT NEED FOR THE GODLY WISE

The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life, that one may turn away from the snares of death. —Proverbs 13:14

The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, that one may turn away from the snares of death. —Proverbs 14:27

Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people. —14:34

The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so the hearts of fools. —Provers 15:7

            Be around the wise and you will increase in wisdom as you learn from them.  This “teaching of the wise is a fountain of life, that one may turn away from the snares of death.”  Yes, it is a joy to be around those who are wise.  Doing so will surely have a positive impact on one’s life for doing so.  The wise have a proper perspective on who the Lord is and have a desire to turn people “away from the snares of death” and to live rightly, righteously.

            It is sad to say our nation has become a reproach, to be seen in error more and more.  “Righteousness exalts a nation,” but our nation is on the sharp decline of immorality and evil.  Plain and simply if we have bad leadership at any level, then that leadership will impact rest of the nation.  Of course, we cannot put it all on leadership in this nation because the people vote for who they want.  So the state of our nation is a reflection is on the state of a large portion of its people.

            We need wise leadership at all levels, including in the church, the body of Christ.  Without it the church will not be and do what our Lord desires.  Oh, that we would see leaders rise up that will take the mantel of wise leadership for the glory of God.  Yes, Dear Father, may this be so by the power of Your Holy Spirit and in the authority of Your Son Jesus.  So may it be!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pu2S9y3r0XE
