The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” Ps. 14:1a
Chambers dictionary defines a fool as someone without wisdom, judgment, or sense. An excellent example of a fool using our verse for today is someone who denies the existence of God despite the glaring evidence before him or acknowledges His existence but ignores and refuses to submit to Him. Christians in every nation are testifying about God and the salvation He offers through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. God has also revealed Himself through His creation: “… what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse” (Rom. 1:19-20). God has put eternity in man’s heart (Ecc. 3:11) so that we long for something beyond us and this earthly life – God. Oh, that we will all be wise and seek God.
