WE DON'T NEED TO BRAG

 Jeremiah 9:23-24This is what the Lord says: The wise must not brag about their wisdom.  The strong must not brag about their strength.  The rich must not brag about their money.  But if someone wants to boast, let him brag that he understands and knows Me.  Let him brag that I am the Lord, that I am kind and fair, and that I do things right on earth.  This kind of bragging pleases me, says the Lord.


Father, You, give happiness to us, Your servants, because we give our lives to You.  Thank You, Lord, for Your kindness, forgiveness, and great love for all who call on You.  Jesus, teach us what You want us to do and how to respect and trust You completely.  Lord, we will praise You with all our hearts, and we will honor Your name forever.  Father, You have a great love for us, and Your Son has saved us from Spiritual death. So, we brag and boast about His sacrifice and goodness.  Lord, we boast about Your provisions, mercy, and grace; Lord, we brag about no longer being controlled by our past or our sin; and we boast about our future with You in eternity.  Father, right now, we ask You to bind everything that keeps us from sitting at Your feet and loose us.  Lord, let us walk in Your way and teach our children and our children's children the way to go.  Father, help us grow in Your knowledge and wisdom, which gives us guidance and understanding. Father, we give thanks continually and glorify only You because we will see Your marvelous light in due time.  So we pray for a humble heart so we do not practice our righteousness to be seen by man.  Lord, let us not sound our trumpets when we give to the needy but stay silent, so You will receive the glory, Amen in Jesus' name.
