We see frequent examples in Scripture of why we should rejoice over the results versus the motivation. When other men began to prophesy Joshua was concerned, but Moses rejoiced (Numbers 11:26-29). When a man was casting out demons, the disciples were concerned, but Jesus said to let him continue (Mark 9:38-41). Paul said some people were preaching the gospel with good motivation and others with bad motivation, but he rejoiced that the gospel was being preached Philippians 1:15-18). The prodigal son returned to his father because he was hungry (Luke 15:17). We can rejoice he returned home.

He is risen!
In Luke 24:1-6, the empty tomb and the resurrection of Jesus declare Christ’s victory over sin and death. Don’t seek life among the dead. Life is found only in the risen Lord Jesus.

What does it mean to have wisdom according to Scripture?
In this sermon and companion blog post, I look at what Proverbs teaches about wisdom and foolishness. Biblical wisdom is more than knowledge or life experience. It begins with fearing the Lord and is revealed in the way we live.
This message is for anyone who wants to make decisions with discernment, resist foolishness, and grow in godliness.
