💥 *** Proverbs 18 / Wisdom (Plague # 3)

 


The third plague of the great tribulation sent by God to judge this world and the apostate churches:

Revelation 8

10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;

11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.

Proverbs 18
 
1 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom. 
 
2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.  
 
3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach.  
 
4 The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
 
5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.  
 
6 A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.  
 
7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.  
 
8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.  
 
9 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.  
 
10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.  
 
11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.  
 
12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.  
 
13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.  
 
14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?  
 
15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.  
 
16 A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.  
 
17 He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.  
 
18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.  
 
19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.  
 
20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.  
 
21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.  
 
22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord.  
 
23 The poor useth intreaties; but the rich answereth roughly.  
 
24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

It will get much worse in the days ahead on this earth.

No wonder Jesus said:  For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.  (Mt. 24:21-22)

We must learn to operate in God's wisdom, obeying the Holy Scriptures.

Joshua 1:8  This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
