Scripture
1 Kings 20:11 The king of Israel answered, "Tell him: "One who puts on his armor should not boast like one who takes it off.'"

Observation
This really should be in the Proverbs. Don't boast about things you have not accomplished. If you haven't done the deed you can't talk trash.

Application
It is common place for people to boast about things they believe they can do before actually succeeding at doing them. This is a form of pride, which the Word tells us "comes before a fall". We may mask it as being confident but God would rather have me humble, waiting to see what HE will accomplish.

Prayer
Father, give me patience to wait upon you, not boast about what I or you will do, just wait and allow you to be glorified in your works. Amen
