If I Have To Boast

2 Corinthians 11:30 (NASB)
If I have to boast, I will boast of what pertains to my weakness.


2 Corinthians 12:5
In behalf of such a man I will boast; but in my own behalf I will not boast, except regarding my weaknesses.

2 Corinthians 12:9-10
And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 10 Therefore I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in distresses, in persecutions, in difficulties, in behalf of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am strong.

Saints,

Romans 3:27 tells us Where is boasting then? 

Our boasting is not in our works, but living by faith.  For we live by faith, the finished work of Jesus, not by sight, not by anything we've accomplished.  We boast in how marvelous God is, boast in our relationship/fellowship with Him. 

Jeremiah 9:23-24

This is what the LORD says: “Let no wise man boast of his wisdom, nor let the mighty man boast of his might, nor a rich man boast of his riches; 

24 but let the one who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the LORD who exercises mercy, justice, and righteousness on the earth; for I delight in these things,” declares the LORD.
