>> His Ways and Thoughts are Higher!!!
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher
than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
ISAIAH 55:9 RSV
>> God tells us, “My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways” (v. 8 RSV), and then goes on to describe the vast difference between the way He thinks and the way we mortals think and between the way He operates and the way people try to work things out. God reasons and works on such a higher level that He compares it to the heavens, which are immeasurably higher than the earth.
>> God has given us intelligence and common sense, and He intends us to use our brains to think through everyday problems and come up with solutions. We are not infinitely smart, however, and sometimes the solution to our problems may be different from anything our minds can envision. A good example is Jesus’ command to love our enemies (Matthew 5:44). It runs contrary to normal human logic.
>> God knows best, and though we may feel certain that God’s way won’t work or even seems downright foolish, we do well to remember that “the foolishness of God is wiser than men” and that compared to God, “the thoughts of the wise are futile” (1 Corinthians 1:25, 3:20 RSV).

>> There is no single key to church health and church growth; there are many keys. The church is not called to do one thing; it is called to do many things. That’s why balance is so important.

God’s Promises – Not One Word Has Failed
“. . . and you know with all your heart and all your soul that none of the good promises the LORD your God made to you has failed. Everything was fulfilled for you; not one promise has failed.”—Joshua 23:14
>> Near the end of his life, Joshua took time with the Israelites to review all that God had done for them since they first began following Him. God had given them an impossible assignment: to conquer a foreign and hostile land with fortified cities and armies more powerful than their own. The Israelites were to go forward with nothing more than God's promise that He would go with them and take care of them. Now Joshua looked back over their experience and reminded the Israelites that God had kept every promise. They had experienced numerous victories and had enjoyed God's provision for every need.-- >>Experiencing God Day by Day: A Devotional and Journal.
