Isaiah 55:9 NLT For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.

A lot of the things in the Kingdom of God are counterintuitive. We give to get, mentally let go of our concerns to get them handled, forgive and love to be healed of hurt, and don’t react to receive vengeance. This goes against everything in our flesh and everything we’ve been taught in society. This is so counterintuitive until it doesn’t compute in the minds of some people, believers included.

Regardless of whether it computes or not, this is the way in the Kingdom of God. We are either going to comply with it or risk forfeiting some Kingdom benefits. By not complying, we’ll forfeit peace of mind, abundance in finances, our health related to unforgiveness, and we limit God’s ability in our lives because we don’t trust His ways.

This is not a heaven or hell issue. This is a quality of life issue. We’ll go to heaven holding on to everything we have, worrying about everything, and living in unforgiveness, but the quality of our lives will be poor. Start trusting the ways of God and enjoy the abundant life He wants you to have (John 10:10).

Proverbs 16:3 AMPC Roll your works upon the Lord [commit and trust them wholly to Him; He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will, and] so shall your plans be established and succeed.
