(1 Corinthians 1:18-25)…..¹⁸ For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. ¹⁹ For it is written:

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise,
And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”

²⁰ Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? ²¹ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom …

(Psalm 27:11-14)…..Teach me Your way, O Lord, and lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies. ¹² Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries; For false witnesses have risen against me, and such as breathe out violence. ¹³ I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. ¹⁴ Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord!
