Proverbs 14:11 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God says...

“The house of the wicked will be overthrown, But the tent of the upright will flourish.”(Proverbs 14:11 NKJV)

He gives us a pop up alert! The direction of ill-intentioned un-Godly living is going down. It starts in a semblance of hype, but ends up with a crash in the gutter. It buds, but then it withers from its roots. It's like a tree that bears no good fruit. It is cut down and thrown into the fire. (Mathew 7:19)).

But, the life of the upright, whose trust is in the Lord Jesus Christ, though begins in humble beginnings - it grows and thrives with much fruits. He lives in total dependence upon his One and Only Provider - his Savior the Lord Jesus Christ. He lives totally dependent on the grace of Christ Jesus by faith in Him. He lives in his flimsy-looking tent like Abraham, but anchored on God's overwhelming grace. The trajectory of his life is established upward. In contrast to the self-exalting arrogance of the wicked, in his humility God raises him up, as Lord Jesus declared: "Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted. (Matthew 23:12 ESV)

And I say, AMEN!

(When God says... I say, AMEN! is a provocative reflection of the Lord's holy Word. It intends to challenge every seeker of truth to dig deep into the core of the Word of Life to point every being to Christ Jesus - the author and finisher of our faith, and to draw revelations for change, for nourishment and for strength of every soul.)
