Shalom,

We read Proverbs 14 intoday's Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan. Verse 3 says this:

3 In the [a]fool’s own mouth is a rod [to shame] his pride, but the wise men’s lips preserve them.

This is what the foonote says concerning the word 'fool':

a  The word “fool” in the Old Testament seldom, if ever, is used to describe the feebleminded, imbecile, idiot, or moron. Rather, it always has within it the meaning of a rebel, especially against God and the laws of order, decency, and justice. Notice in Proverbs how many such characteristics of rebelliousness are listed against the fool, and see God’s attitude toward them.

I hope that YOU will REFUSE to be a FOOL, but will seek the LORD and HIS WORD as your final authority on every subject and situation! Here is Brandon Lake with "Talking To Jesus":

Shalom in Him!
