OUR FATHER WHO CONFOUNDS THE WISE

Isaiah chapter 19 verse 11 says this;

The officials of Zoan are nothing but fools; the wise counselors of Pharaoh give senseless advice. How can you say to Pharaoh,  “I am one of the wise men, a disciple of the ancient kings”?

This verse highlights one of the ways that the oppressive kingdom of Egypt is defeated by the Lord. 

Egypt, in this case, represents the kingdom of darkness that has been set up to oppress and enslave the people of God.

As the kingdom of darkness tries to gain the upper hand, the Lord sends to them a spirit of dizziness that confounds its advisors and counselors.

Even though these agents portray themselves as wise and knowledgable, they give nothing but senseless advise so that the whole kingdom is led astray.

Let us give thanks to God for confounding the wise so that darkness is unable to overcome light.

Amen.
