IN WHAT SHOULD WE BOAST? - DAILY DEVOTIONAL ❤️

GOD'S INSTRUCTIONS AND ACTIONS DON'T ALWAYS APPEAR REASONABLE FROM A HUMAN PERSPECTIVE.

1 CORINTHIANS 1:18-31
GENESIS 3:4-6
ISAIAH 55:8-9

The first challenge to humanity’s faith in God took place in the garden of Eden. Spurred on by the serpent’s lies, Eve looked at her situation from a different perspective and began to doubt the Lord. Her faith faltered as she considered all she had to gain from eating the fruit God had forbidden (Genesis 3:4-6).

God has blessed human beings with the ability to reason, but this skill should take a back seat when the Lord speaks. In fact, His instructions and actions don’t always seem logical from our perspective. Why? Because His thoughts and ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:8-9).

Paul takes this truth a step further by pointing out that God’s choices can even seem foolish by the world’s standards (1 Cor. 1:18-20). Those who recognize their helplessness against sin understand their great need for Christ, the One who saves and raises them to stand with Him in righteousness.

That day in Eden, sin and disobedience entered the human heart. But to God, all the worldly wisdom that fuels our pride amounts to nothing. He’s not looking for great and impressive people; instead, He wants meek, humble servants who can boast only in Christ. The Savior alone is all they need.
