The Word says the foolishness of God is wiser than the wisdom of men and the weakness of God is stronger than the strength of men (1 Corinthians 1:25). This doesn’t imply God has weakness or foolishness. Rather, the writer is emphasizing the extreme difference between God’s divine wisdom and strength compared to mankind’s natural wisdom and limited strength. In reality, there really is no comparison between the creator and His creation, and any attempt to do so is foolishness in itself. The Lord God is all powerful, all knowing, and present everywhere. He is also unstoppable against any foe that comes against Him. When the Philistines defeated the children of Israel with a great slaughter and captured the ark of the covenant, God vindicated Himself by plaguing the cities they brought the ark into. Romans 8:31 declares that if God is for us, none can be against us. It is impossible for Him to be overcome or contended with. In the 2nd Psalm it says God sits in the heavens and laughs at the plans and schemes of the wicked. When the Pharisees sought to stop the disciples from preaching Jesus, Gamliel (a revered teacher of the law) said something profound. He said, “but if the source is God, you will not be able to overthrow them; or else you may even be found fighting against God”. No power in heaven, on the earth, or below the earth is able to overthrow what God has established. Take courage in this truth – that we serve an all-powerful God who avenges His saints speedily. Whoever contends against us for doing the work of the Lord at His command, contends with the One who sent us. According to scripture, God shatters those who contend with Him!
