The foolishness of God (1 Corinthans 1:25)


 
 There is something I have discovered about the will of God, when you look into the scriptures, the will of God almost all the time sounded foolish, stupid to the human way of thinking and reason. Now when God told Abraham to sacrifice his only son which he gave him after patiently waiting for such a long time, this sounded foolish and unreasonable to the human mind,
when God asked Isaac to sow in the land of famine, this was also weird to the human mind, when God sent Moses to confront Pharaoh the then world power, without arming him physically it looked foolish, when God gave Joseph a dream, looking at where he was and all he went through it looked unattainable etc. There is a law of the Spirit by which the will of God operates, and that's the law of faith.


The walk of faith is foolishness to the man of the senses, but wisdom to the man of the Spirit. The bible says, the foolishness of God is wiser than men, why? This is because he is God who knows the end from the beginning. The will of God may sound foolish, but there abound the wisdom for your life, progress and promotion. God does not need your ability, when it comes to his will, what he needs is the mindset and attitude of your faith. Faith is walking in what looks foolish to the human mind, but right to the demand of God.
God won't ask you to do what you won't trust, depend or need him for every step of the way, this why the will of God got to sound foolish. Its looks foolish to give thanks when everything seems falling apart, it looks foolish to be joyful when everything points sadness, it looks foolish to declare how big and rich you are, when your bank account is zero. The difference between where you are and where God is taking you to is faith. The will of God sounds stupid to the human mind so that all you need to bring it to pass is faith alone in God. The will of God brings pulls and draws you closer to God intimately because he is your need and ability to succeed. Make up your mind to succeed in the will of God, and ignore the impossible thinkers, because their thinking can't comprehend the will of God, for it is foolishness to their thinking.#WIN
