Open Heaven 13 September 2018 – Wise But Foolish
Open Heaven 13 September 2018 Memorise:
But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
1 Corinthians 1:27
Open Heaven 13 September 2018 Bible Reading – Isaiah 35:4-10

4 Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you.
5 Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
6 Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.

7 And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.
8 And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.
9 No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there:
10 And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

When you expound the things of God to the “wise men” of this world they will consider you to be a fool. When you talk about the resurrection of the dead and the outcome of Jesus’ death and resurrection they will use their limited knowledge of the natural world to demonstrate your “foolishness”.
It is ironic that those who profess themselves to be wise in this world are declared to be fools before God (Romans 1:22). As a believer in Christ , you should therefore not be offended of you are classified as foolish by the ” wise men” of this world. Click Here To Read – Open Heaven 12 September 2018
Based on the words of our memory verse, if the world considers you to be foolish because your life is based on the principles of God’s word, you are blessed indeed. Remember that the devil came to our first parents disguised as a loving guidance counsellor. He advised them to follow his diabolical wisdom, and this lead them into a state of foolishness.
They realised belatedly that the wisdom the devil was introducing them to was actually foolishness in disguise, and ever since then,the wisdom that fills the heart of men is perverted wisdom of the devil, otherwise known as craftiness (1 Corinthians 3:19).

This manifest as wisdom to cheat and get ahead of a neighbour, wisdom to defraud the government, wisdom to pervert the corner of justice and wisdom to do diabolical things. In contrast to this, the wisdom of God cries out in Proverbs 8:5-8 saying:
” O ye simple,understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.  Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things. For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips. All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.”

This scripture reveals the nature and character of godly wisdom. You will observe that these characteristics are in direct opposition to what the children of this world consider a s wisdom. Any wisdom that does not cut corners is considered foolishness by the children of this world.
What they consider to be wisdom leads to both earthly and eternal perdition. A good example of the wisdom of this world is what Absalom exhibited against his father. The Bible says he stole the heart of an entire nation away from his father the king(2 Samuel 15:6).

This is the way of the world. In contrast to such ways, today’s Bible reading speaks of the highway of holiness, through which the unclean shall not pass.
It is equally interesting to read that although those passing through it may be considered as fools by the world’s standard, they shall not go wrong in it (Isaiah 35:8). They will not err, because their Guide is the Lord of hosts (John 14:6).
Beloved, go you seek wisdom? Do you want to be wise in the things pertaining to godliness? The way to profitable wisdom is the fear of the Lord, and Jesus Christ is that wisdom you need .
Open Heaven 13 September 2018 Prayer Point:
Father, please let the character of your wisdom, begin to manifest in my life, in Jesus’ Name.
Open Heaven 13 September 2018 Hymn 4
TRUST AND OBEY

1. When we walk with the Lord
In the light of His word
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey
Chorus:
Trust and obey, for there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.
2. Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt nor a fear
Not a sigh nor a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.
3. Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief nor a loss,
Not a frown nor a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey.
4. But we never can prove
The delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favour He shows,
And the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.
5. Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;
What He says we will do
Where He sends we will go
Never fear, only trust and obey.
