'For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.” Where is the wise person? Where is the teacher of the law? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength. Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore, as it is written: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.”'

To those who are not saved, the Gospel sounds like foolishness, but to those of us who are saved, it is wisdom and power. There is noone wiser and more powerful than God. If He were to have any foolishness in Him, it would still be wiser than man’s wisdom. If there were any weakness in Him, it would be stronger than man’s strength. God will destroy the wisdom of the wise and the intelligence of the intelligent. He will humble the prideful and lofty who exalt themselves against Himself and His anointed ones. This reminds me of the story of David and Goliath. Goliath was very sure that he could destroy David when he saw his size and that he was just a child with a rock and slingshot, but David came with unwavering and strong faith in the Lord his God. Goliath was put in his place when that stone hit him in his forehead and knocked him to the ground. The Lord can fell any giant. With the Lord, we can conquer any army, advance against any troop, or scale any wall. When we follow the Lord and obey Him, we will be fruitful. Hallelujah!! Thank you, Jesus!!
