Glory in Knowing the LORD – Jeremiah 9:23-24 | KJV
Week 4 · Day 22-4 · 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV
KJV
Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD.
흠정역
주가 이같이 말하노라. 지혜로운 자는 자기 지혜를 자랑하지 말고 용사는 자기 용맹을 자랑하지 말며 부자는 자기 부를 자랑하지 말라. 오직 자랑하는 자는 이것 즉 자기가 깨달아 나를 알며 내가 땅에서 인애와 판단의 공의와 의를 집행하는 주인 줄 아는 것을 자랑할지니 나는 이 일들을 기뻐하노라. 주가 말하노라.
Human wisdom, strength, and riches are unstable places to glory. The LORD points to the only worthy boast: understanding and knowing Him.
✂ Right Division
God revealed Himself through Israel's prophets, and He later revealed the mystery through Paul. In every revelation, the goal is not human boasting, but knowing the God who exercises lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness.
✦ Application
Let your confidence be relocated. Not in what you know, own, or can do, but in the Lord Himself and what He delights in.
