1 Corinthians 1:25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
The things that man thought of as weakness or defeat, brought about the greatest victory that man has ever known which is speaking of the crucifixion. We can see in another scripture how that can show us this a little clearer. Romans 11:33-36 says it this way; Romans 11:33-35 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counselor? Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again? For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen. We need to understand we can only ask for God to give us wisdom to understand Him and his will for our lives. It is foolishness for us to even think we could out smart God.
