FIGURED OUT GOD?

Is. 55:8-9 “My thoughts are completely different from yours,” says the LORD. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.”  NLT

      God doesn’t think like we do. His thoughts are immeasurable and unknowable. He is the thought behind the thought. He knows what we don’t know. His knowledge is complete and absolute in all things. The things we discover about life and creation are but a fraction of what God has already thought of and done.

      No matter how noble your thoughts may be, they are nothing compared to the thoughts of God. No matter how much you may know about life or your field of expertise in life, they are nothing compared to the thoughts of God. No matter how much you may know about the Scriptures, you know nothing compared to what God knows. No matter how well you think you know yourself, it is nothing compared to what God knows about you. The sooner we recognize and accept that God knows far more and understands far more than we do, the sooner we will be able to get along with Him.

       The ways of God cannot be figured out. No matter how hard we may try, we cannot do it. If we could, God would cease to be God. Several years ago a book was written called, Your God Is Too Small. If you have God figured out, your God is way too small. God is mysterious. The moment you take away the mysterious aura of God, you cease to have anyone worthy of worship and adoration. God is worthy of our adoration and devotion because His thoughts and ways are far beyond our ability to comprehend; He can’t be put into a box. He is God. Let Him be God.
