Thinking Right Thoughts

Scripture Reading: Isaiah 55

Focus Verses: Isaiah 55: 8-9  “My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts, says the Lord.  And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.  For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.”

Sometimes the ways of God do not make sense to us.  That because we use our human understanding. If we are left to our own understanding we would be miserable.  God wants us to tap into His divine understanding.  When we learn to think how God thinks it can save us from going down the wrong paths.  God’s pathway may not look like the correct way now, but later it will.  We must trust His way by faith.

To think like God takes discipline.  The world does not understand thoughts of eternal things.  The unsaved think the things of the cross are foolishness.  1 Corinthians 2:16 says “You can think like God because you have the mind of Christ.”  When you think like Christ you let Him be in control.  You trust Him to be in control of circumstances.  In this new year lets seek God's thoughts and not our own.  Let's pursue God more than other things.  God wants to teach you more than you could imagine.   Just as rain helps the garden to grow, God's word will bring forth fruit and accomplish everything that He intends. Isaiah 55:10-11
