God’s instructions don’t always seem to make sense. At least not to our limited brains. It doesn’t always align with logic. But, they always align with purpose. What feels like confusion in the natural, is often designed in the spirit. We know according to Romans 12:2,NLT, “…God’s will is good, pleasing, and perfect. ” So, when things don’t seem to make sense, here’s some points that I believe will help you navigate on your journey as you follow God’s instructions.
#1: God Told Noah To Build An Ark When It Hadn’t Rained! (GEN. 6)
He was mocked. misunderstood. He was ridiculed. But his obedience preserved generations. Listen, don’t wait for EXTERNAL validation to obey DIVINE instructions!
#2: God Told Abraham To Leave Everything Familiar! ( GEN. 12)
He didn’t give him the full blueprint—-just a command: ” Go! ” Sometimes trusting God means moving without details, only direction. Abraham had to trust God and so do we. He may not give you all the details, all the specific’s of your journey, but just trust that He absolutely knows what He’s doing; even when it doesn’t make sense!
#3: God Told Joshua To March Around A Wall To Conquer! ( JOS. 6 )
Think about it. No words. No weapons. No fights. Just FAITH and STEPS. We love to talk about the faith part, and that’s good, but you absolutely cannot forget the STEPS. The actions. God’s strategy often contradicts man’s method. But one thing I know. God’s strategy, even when it doesn’t make sense, is so much better. And, His plan’s never fail!
#4: God Told Mary She’d Carry A Saviour, But She Was A Virgin! ( LU. 1 )
As they say; ” the math didn’t math. ” It just seemed unbelievable, impossible. But the prophet Jeremiah said, “….nothing is too hard for God, ” ( JER. 32:27 ). The promise still manifested. If God said it, He absolutey will sustain it!
#5: Your Process Might Look Like Delay, But It’s Actually Development!
You ARE NOT behind. You are being refined. God doesn’t waste any season. Every season matters. He prepares you in PRIVATE for what He wants to do through you in PUBLIC! Don’t skip the process just because it doesn’t make sense. Faith was never meant to be comfortable——it was meant to STRETCH YOU! The same God who gave you the promise, will give you the grace to walk it out…..even when it doesn’t make sense!
