Wisdom and Anger
Touch of Encouragement for you _______ and timely advice is given in these verses from the book of Proverbs. They state that wisdom is gained by the instruction and counsel of the Lord. The Fear of the Lord Leads to Life: 19 A man of great wrath will suffer punishment; for if you rescue him, you will have to do it again. 20 Listen to counsel and receive instruction, that you may be wise in your latter days. (Proverbs 19:19-20) (Read Proverbs 19:1-29) In verse 19, advice is given for those who would try to help those who have unruly tempers. We are told that trying to help a person who has great wrath is a futile attempt. Anyone who is habitually angry will repeat his offenses and one would have to repeat the process of delivering him. Until a person is ready to change his ways and repent of his anger, he can never be free from an ingrained bad temper. Only the Lord can help a man like that. We have seen this with parents who pay the fines of an angry, rebellious son, who end up in jail for some misdeed caused by his anger. Unless they discipline and correct him, they will usually face the same problem again. (B. Miller) Verse 20 tells us the way to change is to listen to counsel and receive instruction. If we do that, we will be wise in the time to come. Biblical instruction will keep us from destruction and error if we heed it. The keeping of God’s Word will bring great reward. God’s laws and commandments are given so that we might live a good life in this earth. (B. Miller) (Psalm 19:7-11) The bottom line is this: Are you wiser today than last year? Then ten years ago? These are important questions to answer. How wise will you be later in life? A godly man has great desire to grow in wisdom. And the way to increase wisdom is easy – you need to hear the counsel of wise men and accept their teaching. You need to appreciate and apply instruction from others.
