Jeremiah 13-14, Psalms 144, 1 Corinthians 1
What God said to me – No one can boast before Me. Even the smartest person cannot compare to My wisdom and knowledge. Even the most attractive person pales when compared to the beauty of My holiness. You cannot even boast that you are Mine because you would never have come to Me had I not first loved you and called you to be Mine. It is by My doing that you are in Christ Jesus and not by anything you did. The world belittles My children as foolish and ignorant when in reality, the opposite is true. The world has universities and think tanks which spout forth all kinds of foolishness about how to save the world. However the reality is that righteousness and sanctification and redemption and wisdom are only found in My Son, Jesus Christ, and He is the source of salvation. That is the only thing worth bragging about.
