Matthew Henry commentary on Boasting About Tomorrow has been helping me to understand the message of God at Proverbs 27:1 which goes this way “Boast not thyself of tomorrow; for thu knowest not what a day may bring forth” (KJV). Sometimes, we tend to depend on what we have now to feel secure about what a day may bring ahead. That means most of the time that we tend to neglect trusting and keeping in touch with the Lord when we are sufficient today.

Well, I like the commentary message of Matthew Henry about boasting on tomorrow as related to the verse Proverbs 27:1. Boast not thyself, no, not of tomorrow, much less of many days or years to come. This does not forbid preparing for tomorrow, but presuming upon tomorrow. We must not put off the great work of conversion, that one thing needful, till tomorrow, as if we were sure of it, but today, while it is called today, hear God’s voice. We know what a day may bring forth, what event maybe in the teeming womb of time. God has wisely kept us in the dark concerning future events, that he may train up up in a dependence upon himself and a continued readiness for every event, Acts i.7.
