KNOW THAT GOD IS GOD

“The wind blows where it wishes,

And you hear its sound, but do not know

Where it comes from or where it goes.

So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.

John 3:8

There is this wonderfully free flowing, natural energy the fills this world.  Every living thing was created with that energy and has that energy within and surrounding it.  It causes and maintains growth and left free is creative and productive.  There is a natural flow to that energy and life follows that flow freely.

When the free flow of energy is obstructed, contained, and controlled it will produce unintended consequences.  Often these consequences are destructive.  Human beings are forever trying to manipulate and control things they have no business controlling.

Faith is being still and knowing that God is God.  It is knowing and understanding that the universe was created by the word of God, not made out of things that are visible.  God maintains all that He created within this natural flow of life and man’s responsibility is to accommodate to that natural flow. 

Human beings are to care for and attend to, not control what God has created.  We are to be assured that things spoken by God are there, even if they are yet unseen.  We are to know that we know and order our lives in that sacred knowledge that comes from the word of God, spoken either in nature or in the Scriptures.  It is not head knowledge.  It is heart wisdom.  It is seeing things as they are, not necessarily as they are said or thought to be.

We can’t see the wind but we know it’s there.  We can’t see God but we know He’s there.  If we receive Him and believe in His name, He makes us His children and we then have the assurance of things hoped for, promised by our Father, as our eternal inheritance, secured for us by His Son, Jesus.
