God Knows All
1
We can make our own plans,
but the Lord gives the right answer.
2
People may be pure in their own eyes,
but the Lord examines their motives.
Verse 1
We should ask God to help us to speak the right words. The ‘plans of our hearts’ are our thoughts and ideas. We do not know everything. God knows the things that we do not know. We need his help to say the right words. See Mark 13:11.
Verse 2
Even an evil man thinks that he is right. He even persuades himself. Other people might believe him. But God knows the truth about that man.
The first proverb reminds us that while we may make plans to solve a problem, the actual solution comes from God. Our plans succeed when they align with God's plans and fail when they go against them.
It is wise to try to discern God's will when making plans. One way to do this is by studying Proverbs.
Verse 2 talks about our ability to justify almost any evil action. Because we can deceive ourselves, it’s important to seek advice from wise people who won't just tell us what we want to hear. My sister once mentioned that someone who interviewed many terrorists found that they all thought of themselves as "reasonable."
We should not only ask for advice but also be willing to take it, even if it hurts our pride.
Let me ask you: Do you have a wise confidant who will tell you when you are choosing the wrong path?
