*DON'T BE A FOOL*
*By Pastor E O Gabriel 28 March 2025: Share*
SCRIPTURE: Give instruction to a Wise Man, and he will be yet Wiser: teach a Just Man, and he will increase in learning - *Proverbs 9:9*
*One of the main differences between a fool and a wise man, is that a wise man is Profited by Knowledge while Knowledge is of no use to the fool.*
Give instruction to a Wise Man, he will be Wiser and teach a Just Man, he will increase in learning. On the other hand a fool despises wisdom and instruction - *Proverbs 1:7*
Judas Iscariot was with
Jesus for three and a half years. He heard Jesus teaching in Plain language and in Proverbs, he saw Him Perform Miracles but he never Profited from what he saw, simply because he was a fool.
He learnt from his mistake but, it was too late. He wept and hung himself - *Matthew 27:5*
*Waiting to learn from one's Personal Experiences may be bitter and late.*
The second set of the armies sent by the King of Samaria to arrest Elijah, did not learn from the experiences of the first Set and they were roasted alive when Elijah called down fire.
They saw what had happened to the army before them but they despised knowledge and learnt from their Personal Experience but it was too late because they turned to ashes.
The third Set were Wise - They learnt from the experiences of those who had gone ahead of them, repented and were spared - *2 Kings 1:9-15*
*The Bible is a Book of Wisdom and the examples of those who have gone before us are written for our comfort admonition* - *1 Corinthians 10:11*
*A Fool will despise the knowledge and instructions therein, while a Wise man will read and be wiser.*
*It is certain in life that a man may dodge his responsibilities but he will not be able to dodge the consequences of dodging his responsibility.*
*Prayer:*
Father, Please I dont want to be a Fool, help me to learn from your Word and the experiences of others before me in Jesus Christ Name.
