Divine Order of Governmental Authority
I’ve been thinking a lot about Isaiah 55:9 lately:
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth..
- the heavens are really, really high
- so far above the earth I can’t even get my head around it
- here’s some of what we can see (visual aide - videos_awe.html)
- there is no one who has seen everything that’s out there – not just the vast empty space but think about the created heavenly bodies that have never been seen by the human eye – the heavens are really, really high
so are My ways higher than your ways…
- His priorities
- His way to do things
- His power and ability
- His way to rule everything
- He (Creator and Uncreated God) and I (the creation) have nothing in common except for Christ alone
and My thoughts than your thoughts.”
- in comparison I’m not just mentally challenged but I have no brain activity
- my thoughts go in one direction at a time (if I can concentrate long enough) but His go perfectly in all directions, throughout all ages, filling all space and time at once
- I can’t even think about His thoughts – I don’t have the mental capacity to do it in the natural
- His thoughts interact with His creation in love
I plan to start a new series of posts on the Tent of David soon.
If you want to start without me, take a look at I and II Chronicles.
King David got a glimpse of the ways of the Lord and ruled his kingdom based on the revelation he got inside a tent. His proclamation in Psalm 27 highlights the activity of the enemy outside, the thirsty condition of his own heart and the answer to every horizontal problem - go big – go vertical.
He seems to say, “Get up into that higher realm and seek the Lord and wait on Him!”
If you’re saying this doesn’t make any sense, I’m with you. If you think this is old news check out Acts 15:16.
More to come…
See ya’ soon!
