Daily Fountain Devotional 6th November 2025 TOPIC: Knowledge Limitations
SCRIPTURE: Proverbs 30:18-23(NKJV)
30:18. There are three [things which] are too wonderful for me, Yes, four [which] I do not understand:
30:19. The way of an eagle in the air, The way of a serpent on a rock, The way of a ship in the midst of the sea, And the way of a man with a virgin.
30:20. This [is] the way of an adulterous woman: She eats and wipes her mouth, And says, “I have done no wickedness.”
30:21. For three [things] the earth is perturbed, Yes, for four it cannot bear up:
30:22. For a servant when he reigns, A fool when he is filled with food,
30:23. A hateful [woman] when she is married, And a maidservant who succeeds her mistress.
Anglican Daily Fountain Devotional 6th November 2025 STUDY:
Man’s wisdom and understanding have limitations. There are many things our inventions and discoveries cannot unfold. The writer of today’s text points out some things that are yet to be fully known. They include: How eagles fly so high, how snakes, without legs, crawl on rocks, how ships sail on oceans and the ways of a man and virgin-probably how people fall in love (vv. 18-19). The writer equally points out four unbearable things in leadership (vv.21-23).
Despite the above, God reveals his intentions about things He wants us to know through his words. In Revelations 4:11, the scripture says, “You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power, for you have created all things, and for your pleasure they are, and were created.” Whatever is created is created for a purpose; however, the major purpose is for God’s pleasure. As a person, you are created to bring pleasure to God.
Assess your life as to whether you are fulfilling that mandate or not. Let the work of God in creation give you greater interest on the need to serve him and work towards fulfilling your own purpose of living.
PRAYER: I thank you Lord for your interest in me. Help me to always bring pleasure to you, Amen!
MEDITATION: God says “I have chosen you to be My own precious possession. Deuteronomy 7:6”
