Some boast in chariots and some in horses,Many people are proud of their accomplishments. They are important because of what they have done, or what they know, or what they can do. Some are important because of what they have. Armies are considered important based on how big the army is, and especially what technology they have. Today, this would be saying that some boast because of their tanks and humvees.
But we will boast in the name of the LORD, our God.
However, all this is meaningless against the power of God. He has the power to wipe out anything we could ever do in a second. All of human history combined, with all the terrible weapons we've made, would not even make him notice the tap. That power is on our side, and it is the only thing that we can be proud of. But that pride must be mixed with submission and reverence, we are on its side, not it on ours.
