“The fool hath said in his heart, ‘There is no God…’”(Psalm 14:1)
Today is, “All Fools Day,” or to most of us, "April Fools Day.” Practical jokes will be in abundance. I’ll be honest; I enjoy pulling April Fools jokes. I have never pulled an April Fools joke on myself.
In our text the fool says in his heart, there is no God. He is pulling a joke on himself all the while thinking everyone who acknowledges God is a fool. He does not say there is no God openly or publicly. He says this in his heart, down in the hidden recesses of his being. He does not wish to be criticized by his fellow man, most of whom declare the existence of God.
The Bible says he is a fool that does not acknowledge God, the all mighty Creator, all powerful all knowing and all wise God. Such a person who denies God is a fool, not just one day in a year, but every day. Psalm 19:1 says, “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth His handiwork.”
