Words of Wisdom From Mi Daily Devotion
"Proverbs 27:5 KJV
Open rebuke is better than secret love." If someone rebukes you, corrected you, or gave you advice or Godly counsel; it does not mean you are dumb, "a know nothing person", or it does not make you an idiot. When king David was rebuked by Nathan for his adulterous acts, and his well planned murder of Uriah his loyal soldier, the husband of Bathsheba; David knew he did wrong, he committed sins, and stupidly did those with his eyes opened to the devil's temptation. He did them anyways. Then Nathan the prophet came to rebuke him.
"2 Samuel 12:7-10 KJV
And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul; [8] And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things. [9] Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon. [10] Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife."
Open ears, open minds, open hearts, and open to ideas is safer than playing "I know how..." or embracing pride and arrogance. "Proverbs 11:14 KJV
Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety."
