TOO WISE

Each time I think about how wise humans are, it makes me wonder how wise our God is. I am sure you would agree with me that the wisdom of the creature can never be as much as that of the creator. Even though humans invent several wonderful things, God created the raw materials for humans to use in inventing. But I have seen several cases where humans are telling God through their words and actions that they are wiser, and this is one of the reasons why many believers haven’t gotten their miracles yet.

When Jesus got to Lazarus’ house and He requested that the stone be taken away from the entrance of the tomb, Martha couldn’t understand what Jesus was trying to do, she was so wise that she reasoned it within herself that the body would have started decaying since they buried him four days ago. She had forgotten that she was with the One that can make alive which was why Jesus quickly told her in verse 40 of John 11 that, “Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?”

Many believers are too wise to just believe God for the supernatural. When Prophet Elisha issued the decree in 2 Kings 7 that, “To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.” One wise man reasoned it, analyzed the data and when he saw the decree made no sense, he said, “Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be?” I don’t blame the man, he was just being human.

Friends, God is set to wonderful things for you but you need to just believe. Don’t bother analyzing or calculating or asking how, just do away with your expertise and wisdom because the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.

All things are possible to him that believes.
