God Math: Think Biblically

I’ll be honest, living according to God’s laws rather than the world’s customs does not come naturally to me. I need God’s truth, found only in Scripture, to think biblically and the strength of the Holy Spirit to live biblically.

God’s word has divine wisdom, power, truth, and holiness. It has divine attributes because it expresses God’s own character.

Faith influences the equation. (Mathematical problem)

Faith is the opposite of logic. In all the Bible stories where there was great faith, logic was disproved. There is no room for logic where mountain-moving faith exists. Faith takes over where logic can no longer tread.

Logic could not cause a little boy's lunch of five loaves of bread and two fish to feed thousands and thousands. It was faith that fed everyone until they were full and then collected 12 baskets of leftovers, a tangible visual of having more in the end than in the beginning.

Food unlimited. Food multiplied. The food would not run out. It overflowed into possibility, not the logic of impossibility where there was not enough food in a boy’s basket to feed such a vast crowd.

Faith poured out as obedience, daring to believe, and stepping out to feed the multitudes. In the simple act of saying "Yes" to what made no sense, God was able to work through them and do the miraculous.

Through our obedience and faith in what we cannot see, God will do so much more than just enough. He wants to do exceedingly, abundantly more. God will meet our needs and then give us leftovers, overflow, dry land in the middle of oceans, leveled mountains and demolished walls that once locked out our victories.

God succeeds where logic fails.

He will take what seemed impossible and make it exceed our need and surpass understanding. Believe!

Act out of faith and be audacious for God. We have not because we ask not. Ask big and think huge. Do not put God in a box. Do not set limits on our omnipotent, omnipresent, supernatural God!
