Thus Says the LORD: "Let Not the Wise Man Glory in His Wisdom, Let Not

Other February 21, 2026
Thus says the LORD: "Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom,
Let not

‘Thus says the LORD: “Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom,

Let not the mighty man glory in his might,

Nor let the rich man glory in his riches;

But let him who glories glory in this,

That he understands and knows Me, That I am the LORD, exercising lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight,” says the LORD.’

Additional comments:

These verses from Jeremiah 9 remind us where our true identity and focus should reside. It is easy to find pride in personal achievements, physical strength, or financial wealth. Society often encourages us to boast about our intellect and status, yet these earthly pursuits are ultimately fleeting. The text calls us to shift our perspective away from self importance and toward a deeper spiritual connection. True success is found in understanding and knowing the Lord. He displays lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness throughout the world, and it is in these divine qualities that He finds delight. Seeking a relationship with Him is the most profound accomplishment one can attain in life. By aligning our hearts with His character, we experience a purpose that goes far beyond temporary worldly gains.
