Mark 14 to 16
Is boasting always a sin? It depends if our boasting is of The Truth. When we boast this way we do not sin.
Ps 9:2 I will rejoice and boast about You; I will sing about Your name, Most High. HCSB
When did you last boast about God?
The Psalmist King David boasted about his God and so should we.
What about that last answer to prayer? Have you boasted about how God did it? Not how He did it for you – that is boasting about YOU. But boast how HE has been good to you, how HE healed you, how HE got you that job.
The kings of Judah had a recorder – someone who wrote down what happened. Why not keep a record of how God has helped you and remind yourself. Some of those things that God did years ago are worth boasting about. GOD IS GOOD!
It is time to tell of all His goodness
Ps 145:I will exalt you, my God the King; I will praise your name for ever and ever. 2 Every day I will praise you and extol your name for ever and ever. 3 Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. 4 One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts. 5 They will speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty, and I will meditate on your wonderful works. 6 They will tell of the power of your awesome works, and I will proclaim your great deeds. NIV
