with God


Isaiah 40:12-14

12 Who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand,
Measured heaven with a span
And calculated the dust of the earth in a measure?
Weighed the mountains in scales
And the hills in a balance?
13 Who has directed the Spirit of the LORD,
Or as His counselor has taught Him?
14 With whom did He take counsel, and who instructed Him,
And taught Him in the path of justice?
Who taught Him knowledge,
And showed Him the way of understanding?


How many times have we questioned God on what He is doing in our lives or even the lives of others?
So many times we say, "Why God" or "Why are you doing or allowing this to happen to me?"
God says:

  • Isaiah 55:8-9
  • 8 "For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
    Nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD.
    9 "For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
    So are My ways higher than your ways,
    And My thoughts than your thoughts.


    But still we think that we know better then God.
    It's time to stop asking God why and start realizing that HE is God and we are not!
    We should start praying:

  • Psalms 119:73b Give me understanding, that I may learn Your commandments.


  • Sometimes we go through things so that we may learn to be obedient to His commands. Not as a punishment, but rather a time of learning.

  • James 1:2-3 2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.


  • Remember when we were in school and would get upset every time there was a test?
    But now that we are older we realized that those tests helped us to study and learn.
    When we go through trials or temptations, we should be in God's word so that we can learn and grow from these testing and trials.
    We must also remember who our teacher is:

    With whom did He take counsel, and who instructed Him,
    And taught Him in the path of justice?
    Who taught Him knowledge,
    And showed Him the way of understanding?


    The answer: No one!
