In devotion this morning I was reading in Proverbs chapter 9
about the wise woman and the foolish woman. It was so rich and
full of insight. I saw two different women who truly represented
the saved and the ones who say they are saved and are not. Their
actions and non-actions speak louder than words and reveals who
have received something from God and those who have not. Who are
His and who are not.


This chapter came alive this morning when I looked at these two
women and their ways. Those that have been truly regenerated bear
about the life of the Father and the Son by virtue of the Holy
Spirit within them. This life of God within causes them to get up
and live, to go out and prosper in the life God has given to
them. They are always looking to pass on that eternal stream of
living waters and bread of life to others, and never live to them
selves.


They that are not alive in the Spirit are like the foolish woman
who want all the trappings of Christian life, but have no heart
for Christ. They offer nothing and live for themselves. When they
do offer something it is not theirs, but something stolen to give
away. They are not born again.


These two women seem also to represent the true body of Christ,
and the other the false body that has no heart for Christ and
offers nothing. One offers eternal life and the other eternal
death. In this chapter there is such a stark difference between
the two that it is breathtaking.


"True spirituality manifests itself in certain dominant desires.
First is the desire to be holy rather than happy. A man may be
considered spiritual when he wants to see the honor of God
advanced through his life even if it means that he himself must
suffer temporary dishonor or loss. The spiritual man wants to
carry his cross.


Again, a Christian is spiritual when he sees everything from
God’s viewpoint. Another desire of the spiritual man is to die
right rather than to live wrong. The desire to see others advance
at his expense. The spiritual man habitually makes
eternity-judgments instead of time-judgments." ~A.W. Tozer
