Proverbs 15:12 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God says...

“A scoffer does not love one who corrects him, Nor will he go to the wise.” (Proverbs 15:12 NKJV)

Here it is the reason why a scoffer is a scoffer. A scoffer is one who not only disregards correction, but abhors it, especially the one who delivers the correction. He hates corrections from God's Word. A scoffer detests it because he is an arrogant fool. Now we know!

God gives us this awareness so that we do not behave like a scoffer and miss learning God's ways for abundant and blessed life. We have to get rid of the cloak of pride and put on the garment of humility. Open our hearts to His correction and counsel through His holy and written Word.

By faith in Christ Jesus, resting in His grace, let's allow Him to hold our hand. He'll lead and receive us to honor and glory, as the Psalmist declares: "For my heart was grieved, embittered, and in a state of ferment, and I was pricked in my heart [as with the sharp fang of an adder]. So foolish, stupid, and brutish was I, and ignorant; I was like a beast before You. Nevertheless I am continually with You; You do hold my right hand. You will guide me with Your counsel, and afterward receive me to honor and glory.”(Psalm 73:21-24 AMP)

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.)
