Exodus 7:11
Pharaoh then summoned wise men and sorcerers, and the Egyptian magicians also did the same things by their secret arts.

Shalom sdr, my devotion today, Sat, Dec. 5, WISE MEN (Ex. 7:11). Long time ago, there were many wise men already. The people had and knew about wise men already. The wise men lived freely among the people. Even, they lived around the kings too. King Pharaoh also had many wise men whom lived around him all the time. He was surrounded by the wise men. Therefore, when Moses made miracles, they could do the same things quickly. They were called wise, because they could do some miracles, magics and magnificent performances. The problem:
a. They were unbelievers.
They didn’t use the power of God. They didn’t believe God and had no association with God.

b. They were unwise perfectly.
They made situation even worse. They drain even worse all the water sources left in Egypt, by turning them into blood. So, they themselves had to experience the results.

c. They were unfamiliar with the omen which was going to happen.
By doing that, they didn’t remember about the outcome which they would undergo, doom, dead, perish. Therefore, no wise men outside of the knowledge of God. If a man doesn’t want to believe God, he is unwise. ASH.
