To know the Lord is to know His ways
To know His ways is to know His mind
To know His mind is to know His thinking
I don’t think the way you think. The way you work isn’t the way I work. For as the sky soars high above earth, so the way I work surpasses the way you work, and the way I think is beyond the way you think. Just as rain and snow descend from the skies and don’t go back until they’ve watered the earth; Doing their work of making things grow and blossom, producing seed for farmers and food for the hungry. Isaiah 55:8-10 (MSG)
To know His thinking is to understand why He does what He does
So, will the words that come out of my mouth not come back empty-handed. They’ll do the work I sent them to do, they’ll complete the assignment I gave them. Isaiah 55:11 (MSG)
All of these that have been written come from a devoted relationship with our Heavenly Father:
- Here’s the one thing I crave from Yahweh, the one thing I seek above all else: I want to live with him every moment in his house, beholding the marvelous beauty of Yahweh, filled with awe, delighting in his glory and grace. I want to contemplate in his temple. Psalm 27:4 (TPT)
- Who, then, is allowed to ascend the mountain of Yahweh? And who has the privilege of entering into God’s Holy Place? Those who are clean {cleansed by the precious blood of Jesus}—whose works and ways are pure, whose hearts are true and sealed by the truth, those who never deceive, whose words are sure. Psalm 24:3-4 (TPT)
It’s my choice to make, just as it was Mary’s, who made the choice not to be distracted by what seemed acceptable but was not the most important (Luke 10:42 (TPT), who chose not to be distracted.
We are taught that it is possible to know the mind of God (1 Cor. 2:16), but it’s your choice. SelahPastor Afolabi Oladele
