Wisdom of the Day from Mi Daily Devotion 

Proverbs 14:1 KJV

"Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands."

Who are the foolish? Let's examine the Bible in regards to who the foolish are:

1- Those who don't believe in God are called foolish according to the Scriptures. "The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good." (Psalm 14:1; 53:1)

2- Those who despise wisdom and instructions. Proverbs 1:7 KJV "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction."

3- Those who caused heaviness to their parents. Proverbs 10:1 KJV "The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother." - By Ely Roque Sagansay

Word of Wisdom from Mi Daily Devotion 

Proverbs 13:1 KJV

"A wise son heareth his father's instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke."

A pastor who preaches and teaches the Word of God has also the responsibility of rebuking and correcting his family, his flocks and those who live in sins and wickedness. Your "rebuke" will either shape them or will start to make them hate you, it depends on their attitude. The Bible says; "Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee." (Proverbs 9:8 KJV) When you rebuke someone, you are showing him or her your care and love. It may hurts for a while (truth hurts) but soon it will be for their benefit. King Solomon wrote; "Open rebuke is better than secret love." (Proverbs 27:5 KJV) - By Ely Roque Sagansay

Word of Wisdom from Mi Daily Devotion 

Proverbs 12:1 KJV

"Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is brutish."

I cannot put words in the mouth of millions of people, including our readers and followers of Mi Daily Devotion and my followers on Facebook and other social media; but I'm sure most of them don't like to read and follow instructions. The Lord through the working of the Holy Spirit compels us to live and follow His instructions from the Word of God. It's also true in Christianity, especially with some self- professed Christians who don't read and follow the basic instructions of the Bible. The Psalmist says; "Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee." (Psalm 50:17 KJV)- By Ely Roque Sagansay

Word of Wisdom from Mi Daily Devotion 

Proverbs 11:1 KJV

"A false balance is abomination to the Lord : but a just weight is his delight."

Abomination is not a common word. It's not common to people especially if it's all about their personal sin or sins. Abomination was first used in the Bible in the book of Genesis chapter forty verse thirty two. It's in relation to cultural practices of the Egyptian people during the time of Joseph the son of Jacob. The Bible talks about Jesus eating with the publicans. (Matthew 11:19) Apostles Paul and Peter went through the same issue. (Galatians 2:14- 15)

They hated it when they (Jews and Jesus) eat with sinners and other cultures. No wonder when God speaks of sin, He associated it to the hatred of the Egyptians and Israelites when other cultures would eat with them on the same table. According to Wikipedia.org- "An abomination in English is that which is exceptionally loathsome, [[hate]]ful, [[sin]]ful, [[evil|wicked]], or vile." By Ely Roque Sagansay

Proverbs 10:1 KJV

"The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother."

The wise, the smart, the knowledgeable, the know it all (Jack of all trades), the highly intellectual, and the man of wisdom; they are all in different categories. Not every knowledgeable men are also men of wisdom and vice versa. Someone's intelligence might be another man's weakness. To be wise does not mean you have to know all the statistics, equivalents, the dictionary, etc. For me, it's about the wisdom of God- the wisdom of the wise. Be wise and discreet, like Joseph who knew not Pharaoh of the Exodus. The Bible says; "Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt." (Genesis 41:33 KJV)- By Ely Roque Sagansay

Word of Wisdom from Mi Daily Devotion 

Proverbs 9:1 KJV

"Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:"

Are you a pillar or are you the weight on the top of the pillars? Pillars are used as support, an ornament or just a display of beauty, a monument of integrity, courage, success or power. We have pillars of faith in the Bible, pillars of faith at church, but as parents or believers at home; we must serve as pillar to those who lives around us. Be a pillar for God and be a display or showcase  of God's testimony, power and grace. The Bible says; "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2- For by it the elders obtained a good report." (Hebrews 11:1- 2 KJV)- By Ely Roque Sagansay

Word of Wisdom from Mi Daily Devotion 

Proverbs 8:1 KJV

"Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?"

Have you ever cried like a baby? Yes, "Cry" like a baby as an adult. Two instances that happened to me; First, when I came to know the Lord Jesus Christ. The second was when I had a dream. I Dreamed I died and went up to heaven and saw God and His holiness. It was so bright (way brighter than the sun) that I can't even look at Him. And  I saw myself and my sinfulness. Then I bowed down and cried like a baby. Then the Lord wiped away the tears from my eyes; after a while I felt like something so heavy was taken out from me, and I felt so light. If wisdom cries at this very moment; it cries for you, it cries because of man's rejection to God's wisdom, and it cries for Christians who lack wisdom. (James 1:5)- By Ely Roque Sagansay
