Proverbs 15:14 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God says...

“The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge, But the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness.” (Proverbs 15:14 NKJV)

He reemphasizes the importance of keeping our heart in the right posture of understanding, to seek more knowledge of God and His ways from His holy and written Word. Not from the world! Not from fake media! And, certainly not from corrupt politicians! Not from religion, too! His Word is "a lamp for our feet and a light on our path" (Psalms 119:105). So, let not our mouth speaks of foolishness and arrogance like a fool. It is written: "Talk no more so very proudly, let not arrogance come from your mouth; for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed." (1 Samuel 2:3 ESV)

Rather, as the redeemed of the Lord by grace through faith in Christ Jesus, we sustain our being "on every word that comes from the mouth of God" (Matthew 4:4).  And, we are to use our lips to declare those words of edification as Apostle Paul exhorts: "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice.” (Ephesians 4:29-31 NIV)

And I say, AMEN!
