2 Kings 9:1-37; Jeremiah 44:1-37; Hebrews 11:17-40
The wise men are ashamed…they have rejected the word of the Lord; and what wisdom is in them? Jeremiah 8:9
But we speak the wisdom of God…which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 1 Corinthians 2:7-8
When “wise” men in Jeremiah’s day rejected God’s word, they misled the nation by saying “peace, peace” when in fact the nation was about to go into captivity. Later, men were misled by rulers who, ignorant of God’s word and wisdom, crucified the Lord of glory. We will not mislead others if we spend time in God’s Word, meditating on it and obeying it. —David Croudace
Search in His Word for treasure; look for it every day.
This is the path to wisdom; follow it all the way. —S. H. Peterson
