Proverbs 1:22-23 says "How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you." God is also asking you that, FOR HOW LONG will you continue to disgrace HIM by not taking absolute responsibilities of overcoming those ungodly situations in your life.

You must not allow that unpleasant situation to override you anymore. It only takes a fighter to be a winner. A battle you don't fight, you don't win. The problem is that you don't want to do anything about it, you are too simple.

The wisdom of Proverbs is telling you this morning, that you need to face your mountains, stop being terrified by it. Challenge your challenges. Stop what is stopping you from living a victorious life. Always remember that a problem you don't deal with, will deal with you mercilessly. There is always a solution to a problem, and all you need to do is to seek knowledge. Seek knowledge on how to overcome your problems, seek knowledge from the word of God.

What is the problem in your life? Is it sin, poverty, lack, sickness, or whatever. Do something about it today. Pray about it for God to help you, go for counseling, and start taking positive actions about it. Don't be simple, have a fighting spirit of an overcomer, knowing assurably that God will deliver and help you. FOR HOW LONG will you continue to allow your challenges to overcome you? Enough is enough, do something about it today.
