Psalm 20:7

On what basis do your opponents or teammates boast?  Do they brag about their size and strength?  Maybe they talk loudly about their skills, technique or knowledge.  Does anyone you know boast in the power of his God?

That’s exactly what we hear from David in Psalm 20 and verse 7, “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.”

God’s power is greater than a whole division of chariots.  His strength is mightier than a thousand horses.  To David the warrior, God’s name is better than all the finest military equipment on the planet.

When your opponent boasts of his speed, God is faster.  When your teammate is bragging about his power in the weight room, remember that God is most powerful.  When the media boasts of your most recent victories, think about the eternal nature of God’s wisdom. 

In today’s competition, if you must brag at all, make your boast in the one unchanging, immovable person – God almighty.
