A FAITHFUL WITNESS

Proverbs 14:5-7 A faithful witness does not lie, But a false witness will utter lies. A scoffer seeks wisdom and does not find it, but knowledge is easy to him who understands.

 A faithful witness does not lie: This simple and straightforward statement has much spiritual instruction in it. Jesus called His followers to be His witnesses (Acts 1:8 But you shall receive power (ability, efficiency, and might) when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be My witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judea and Samaria and to the ends (the very bounds) of the earth.). One of the primary responsibilities of a witness is to simply tell the truth and not lie. When we have genuine faith and experience in the person and work of Jesus Christ, we can be a true witness to Him.

Again, this simple statement points to a great spiritual truth. We should never be a false witness for Jesus Christ and utter lies about who He is. 

We should never be a false witness, even when the occasion requires it. Having debauched his conscience by daily lying, he is thereby prepared and disposed to false witness-bearing.

When someone seeks wisdom and does not find it, it is evidence that they are likely a scoffer – someone whose pursuit of wisdom and the truth is cynical and superficial.

“Such may seek wisdom; but he never can find it, because he does not seek it where it is to be found; neither in the teaching of God’s Spirit nor in the revelation of his will.” 

Knowledge is easy to him who understands: Jesus promised, Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you (Matthew 7:7“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. ). This is a promise to the sincere seeker, the one who understands.

Prayer: Thank you Father for your Word for me, my prayer is that pour out divine favor and grace to live in your wisdom so that knowledge will be our portion in Jesus name.  Amen
