Day 4 - Boasters
The word “boasters” used in 2 Timothy 3:2 means "empty pretenders". A boaster is like an inflated balloon, huge on the outside but empty within. These are the kind of people who like talking about doing big things in life without any encounter or direction from the Lord, a detailed plan ready to follow through, or even people to help them. Be watchful of them. But don’t confuse the talk of a visionary person with that of a boaster. (I speak this especially to men.)
Visionary children of God who know their divine mandates usually speak about their future rather than their present lives. Anyone who isn’t deeply rooted in the knowledge of the Word can despise and possibly treat them inadequately. It's just like what Joseph’s brothers did to him. God gave this young boy two dreams about his future. But because his brothers were not spiritually discerning, they hated and sold him into slavery. Yet even through that unfortunate incident, God turned it for good.
Are you a visionary or a boastful person? Don’t just talk; talk out of your encounter with Jesus. That is what brings solidity to your words and prayers about your future. Or else, you’ll become a boaster.
