God is wise and it is no surprise at all
He formed the earth in 6 days and made it like a ball
We do well to take heed to His Word
we dont know all and never will no matter how much we've heard
God raises the dead and gives the blind sight
He makes the trees grow and gives the plants light
He formed all of the animals and called them two by two
Noah questioned not God, just did what God said do
Higher than the heavens are from the earth, so is God's wisdom in us
we must never rely on our own will, following His Word is a must
God formed His church with wisdom and just like a baby being born
man just cant figure it out
His wisdoom is beyond our greatest imaginations
we need trust and never doubt
The Pharisees thought they knew all of the answers in matters
God surprised them time and time again, He invited the Greeks in with the Jews who scattered
Just when the Pharisees thought they were the only chosen few
God showed His will to them in spite of what they thought they knew
It will always be that way when it comes to God's ultimate plan
we do well to let go of pride and rest in the master's hand
What God has made crooked man will not make straight
so heed His Word and continue to enter in at the narrow gate
God is Wise
If he acted foolish, or had a bad day
even His foolishness would be wiser than our wisdom
God is Wise
We need always pray for the man of God that God has placed 'with us'. Bro White is truly gifted. He is gifted with special wisdom in understanding God's Word, and humility that allows him to speak the truth in a way that all could understand, that is a gift, to empart understanding. No one can outgrow the Scriptures, there are Scriptures that I have been reading for well over 20 years, that a man of God can teach and bring out points from the text that I would have never thought of alone. Many people set aside the Bible because it is not relatable, yet, when it is taught in such a loving way, it becomes Alive and relevant and we are able to connect with the God who created all things.
Bro. Emmanuel White, continues with Acts. We have arrived at Acts 11. The Jews are amazed that God has called the Gentiles by the same method as 'the' Jews. It was an 'in your face' sort of event becuase the Jews always believed that they were the chosen of God amoung all the peoples of the earth, and it was difficult for them to grasp a loving Father who accepted 'anyone' with faith to believe. Acts 11; Even when we dont understand God's will, we should give Glory to His name in spite of how we see things, due to our ultimate reliance on His great Wisdom that far superceeds our human intelligence.
A key verse in Bro White's sermon is I Cor 1:22-25 'For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. I never gave much thought to Acts 11 which stated that the disciples were first called Christian at Antioch, a Greek territory, and not Jewish!
Bro White reminded us that even on a day if God decided to be foolish, (or have a bad day) that even his foolishness would outweigh our "wisdom"! Wow, we serve a Great and Awesome God! What a mighty God we serve! These are humbling truths, thank you for this lesson minister White, we Love you! Praise God for using you as His vessel for our spiritual growth. No matter how big and bad we think we are, God really does have the Master Plan & is the Wisest of the Wise!
