“Blessed is that man who makes the Lord his trust
and does not respect the proud,
nor such as turn aside to lies.”
Psalm 40:4

It’s a hard thing for many to do – to get one’s eyes off the proud and those who speak lies. Think media – why is it that we put so much trust in what the media tell us, even though we know they are fostering an agenda? Professors – perhaps the most dangerous of all men – professors deceive the young and they foster in them a false world view. When a young person graduates from college he has been thoroughly brainwashed in the philosophies of the world – which are deception according to God. “Therapy” is big these days. But counselors have been trained to lead people into “feel good” thinking, building up the ego, leading them to concentrate on self and how self can be pleased.         

As Solomon said:

“I have seen all the works
that are done under the sun,
and indeed, all is vanity
and grasping for the wind.”
Ecclesiastes 1:14

Dare to turn from these and find out what God has to say. You can’t put your trust in both because they present opposing world views, they are from opposing kingdoms. They speak well, they are very convincing. But they are wrong. Very wrong.

True wisdom and true guidance can be had only from God who knows the end from the beginning. He knows how things work together, how they affect each other. He knows your future and understands your past. He is the only one able to truly guide.

God gave us his Word in the Scriptures, intending that we should READ IT. From his Word one will find the correct guidance we need, the right way to proceed.
