Rich man in conceit

Rich man in conceit

The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out (Proverbs 28:11).

A rich man appears to be wise in his own thinking but a poor man who knows and understands God can search the heart of the rich man by discernment. God gives the power of discernment to a God fearing saint who lacks in material prosperity.

When righteous men do rejoice, there is great glory: but when the wicked rise, a man is hidden (Proverbs 28:12).

Righeous men do rejoice over good things and there is great glory of these righteous men manifested to defeat the powers of darkness. But when the wicked rule or rise, the people have to hide themselves from their wickedness.
