No one enjoys being around a person who boasts of himself. Bragging about our own ability and wealth is a turnoff in anyone’s book. So, the question is, can a Christian boast? Can a Christian be proud of anything? The answer is, yes, for all boasting is not sinful. The Bible does encourage us to be boasters – boasting in the Lord! You see, boasting in the Lord is, on the one hand, quite the opposite of boasting in one’s self. Instead of drawing attention to ourselves, we draw attention to Christ..
So, what do you take pride in? Is it your possessions, intellectual gifts, relational abilities, or artistic expressions? Do you ever boast about God’s grace at work in your life? Is God blessing you in ways that ought to be shared with others, for their encouragement and up-building? Then, Brag on the Lord today! He is worthy of our boasting. Let’s join Evangelist Paul Acquah on this sermon titled “Boasting in the Lorrd”.
