Proverbs 26 - Fools & Angels (notes)

Proverbs 26 - Fools & Angels

Proverbs 26:1-12 Gives characteristics of fools.

• A fool behaves in a thoughtless or irresponsible way.
• A wise person behaves in thoughtful and responsible way.
• Angels watch us and are looking for wisdom in us (the Spirit of wisdom & revelation).
• The Word produces faith and faith gets the attention of God & angels-who carry out God’s orders.

Proverbs

• Contrasts the difference between the wise and the foolish. In these last days God is looking for the wise to shine like the stars. Jesus said, we are the light of the world. Light illuminates, produces life and pushes back the darkness.
• Gives us revelation on how to live life in the power of God’s wisdom.

How Many…

• People in the Kingdom are unaware of what God is doing right now when they are the light of the world?
• God is pouring out the Spirit of wisdom and revelation.
• Revelation comes to enlarge the playing field of faith.
• Revelation gives us access to the realm of greater anointing available to us to make that truth personal.

God Is Pouring Out His Spirit of wisdom and revelation right now.

• The Word has revelation hidden in it but it takes desperation & diligence to dig it out.
• God will pour out His Spirit upon the desperate for desperation is the currency of heaven.

Angels

• Psalm 103:20 Praise the Lord, you His angels, you mighty ones who do His bidding, who obey His Word.
• Are waiting for believers to speak the Word of God with such faith that they go into action on our behalf when we speak.
• First we meditate on the Word then we learn to speak it so that angels can do their job.

Revelation Was Given To Jacob in Genesis 28:12

• About angels of God ascending and descending between heaven and earth.
• About the ministry of angels and what they do.
• Angels ministered to Elijah in I Kings 19:5-7 The prophet was exhausted after a great spiritual battle in Israel.
• The angel touched Elijah and told him to eat and drink from heaven.

Sometimes

• We are in such a spiritual battle. We can be under such pressure and stress (usually demonic) that we are tormented and we need spiritual rest and nourishment from angels.
• This is when God can send an angel to come and minister to us.
• Elijah’s job wasn’t done so he needed this heavenly help and God sent the angel.

God Is Here

• To work in our lives, through healing (progressive) and miracles (instantly).
• To draw us closer to His heart so we can know His will in this hour for our lives.
• To open up new opportunities to touch hurting people in this area and beyond.
• To demonstrate His Glory in our midst to show transform the culture.

God Wants Us

• To be filled with the Spirit today and every day because this is where the power is.
• It has been my source of strength, power and might for the past 44 years and it can be yours.
• To walk in the Spirit every day.
