My ways are higher than your ways
My ways are higher than your ways
By Evangeline Unity Escala Folson
Isaiah 55: 8-9
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your way, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
According to the verse above, the way God thinks is different from how humans think. God’s thoughts are higher than ours, that is, God’s thoughts or plan are superior. Man’s thoughts and ways are finite but God’s are infinite it has no end.
1 Corinthians 29 says
But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath, prepared for them that love Him
If God’s ways and thoughts are higher than ours, what must we do?

For thou desireth not sacrifice; else would I give it! thou delightest not in burnt offering.
The sacrifices of God are a broken Spirits, a broken and a contrite heart, o God, thou wilt not despise.
God desires a repentant heart (a broken Spirit and a contrite heart). If you want God’s plans and thoughts for your life to be fulfilled, then repent from your sin, ask
for forgiveness and cleansing. Then His will can be done in your life.
Hebrews 11.6
