Knowledge First!
Proverbs 19:2
It isn’t good to have zeal without knowledge; nor being hasty with one’s feet and missing the way.
'Look before you leap', is a come saying but how many actually look before leaping? The Bible is advising us to have knowledge before doing anything.
This is a success tip for us brethren, even when we are zealous and in haste, we should first get the needed knowledge to avoid missing the way and having a disappointment and frustration.
Take a look at the seven sons of Sceva, they lack the knowledge of Jesus (God), hence they met their waterloo. Look at what the Bible says in Acts 19:14-16
"...The evil spirit answered, “Jesus and Paul I know, but who are you?” The man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded."
They were unknown by the evil spirit because they know not God. Also see, Romans 10:2, they have a zeal ... but not ... knowledge.
Love & Shalom!!!
