Anybody wants to post a Bible verse ?

[Novus]

Jeremiah 9:23 parallel with Jeremiah 23:17 and Romans 1:22 and Proverbs 28:26 (ESV)

Thus says the Lord: “Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches,

They say continually to those who despise the word of the Lord, ‘It shall be well with you’; and to everyone who stubbornly follows his own heart, they say, ‘No disaster shall come upon you.’”

Claiming to be wise, they became fools,

Whoever trusts in his own mind is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered.

[Novus]

Jeremiah 23:17 parallel with Genesis 3:1a, 4 (ESV)

They say continually to those who despise the word of the Lord, ‘It shall be well with you’; and to everyone who stubbornly follows his own heart, they say, ‘No disaster shall come upon you.’”

Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God actually say, ... But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die.

Amen to this>>Thus says the Lord: “Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches.

As the Lord says, not by might nor by power but by the Spirit says the Lord. Zachariah 4:6 NKJV

Romans 12:16c parallel with Proverbs 26:12 and Proverbs 3:5-6 and Galatians 6:3-4 (KJV)

• Be not wise in your own conceits.

Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

True>>Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

And if we trust in the Lord wholeheartedly it means our steps are ordered by the Lord.

 

Psalm 37:23-24 New King James Version

²³ The steps of a good man are ^[a]ordered by the Lord, And He delights in his way. ²⁴ Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For the Lord upholds him with His hand.

[Walter and Deborah]
