Thoughts, counsels and words of righteous and wicked

The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit (Pro.12:5).

The thoughts of the righteous cannot be wrong because such thoughts are inspired by the Holy Spirit. A righteous child of God always think of God and His Kingdom. He or she sees Christ everywhere. He or she sees everything in and through Christ.But the counsels of the wicked are deceit. Even if a servant of God indulges in deceit during the course of his or her ministry with exaggeration or camouflage, he or she becomes wicked in the sight of God and all his or her counsels are not accepted in His sight.The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood: but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them. (Pro.12:6)In the book of Proverbs, the wicked are those who are morally wicked in this world and those children of God who turn away righteousness and become wicked. The words of the wicked are to entail the innocent or the gullible in traps for selfish gains by squeezing their blood. They speak words of deceit only to catch their victims.

The upright are those who are morally upright and who stand for the truth. When they speak from their heart, their words deliver the people to whom they minister. Today we are not able to deliver people from evil spirits

The wicked are overthrown, and are not: but the house of the righteous shall stand (Pro.11:7).

The wicked are overthrown though temporarily they are found to be on a winning spree. Ultimately they are overthrown. No wicked person can enter the heaven.

But the house of the righteous founded on the Rock of ages shall stand for ever. You can take refuge under the shadow of a righteous person for your safety.
