Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. (Ephesians 6) Lean not to thy own understanding but in every way acknowledge the Lord and He will direct your path. (Proverbs 3)
The wisdom of man is foolishness with God. (1 Corinthians 3) Christ knew the wisdom of this world was foolishness. Had the princes of the world had wisdom they would never have hung Christ on the cross. (1 Corinthians 2)
Apostle Paul, chief among sinners, struck down on the road to Damascus, immediately, did not confer with flesh and blood; knowing the attack was not by a human but an attack by God, "to reveal his Son Jesus, in me, that I might preach Him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood", (Galatians 1)--wrote, "Now to Him that is of power to establish us according to the gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, but now is made manifest, by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith" (Romans 16)
You know Job, whom God gave the Devil permission to take away everything Job had and killed off all of Job's sons. Job said, "I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause: Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvelous things! Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sends waters upon the fields. To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety. He disappoints the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise. He takes the wise in their own craftiness. (Job 5)
Father God, in the name of Jesus, we praise You, we honor You, we lift up Your Holy and Righteous name. You are He who is, was, and is to come. (Revelation 1) You alone are God (Psalm 86) and Your ways are past finding out (Romans 11). You take the foolish things of the world to confound the wise (1 Corinthians 1). We love you Jesus. We honor You and we give You all the praise and glory. Amen

Exercise your authority to tread on serpents and to cast out demons. You are the head and not the tail. Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. Exercise your holy boldness.
