1 Corinthians 1:31 – Boast in the Lord, NOT in the law

1 Corinthians 1:31
He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.


God does not want us to boast in our abilities to keep the law (self-effort). If we are to have confidence in anything at all, if we are to boast in anything at all, it is in the grace of God. Only His grace can completely keep, save, heal, deliver and bless us.

So let’s not boast in what we have done or are able to do, but boast in His grace for us - that He is our strength, health, favor, prosperity, wisdom, hope, salvation and glory. That is how we will see ourselves enjoying our inheritance of abundant life!

Give our Lord Jesus all the praise :)
