Know whom you’re dealing with!
God alone is powerful enough to create the earth.
He alone is wise enough to put the world together.
He alone understands enough to stretch out the heavens.
Jeremiah 10:12 The Voice

Stanza 6:
Oh, come, our Wisdom from on high,
Who ordered all things far and nigh;
To us the path of knowledge show,
and teach us in her ways to go.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.

The wisdom of God devised a way for
the love of God to deliver sinners from
the wrath of God while not compromising
the righteousness of God.
John Piper
For God’s secret plan, now at last made known, is Christ himself.
In him lie hidden all the mighty, untapped treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Colossians 2:2b-3 Living Bible
**********
How very rich are God’s wisdom and knowledge!
How he judges is more than we can understand!
The way he deals with people is more than we can know!
“Who can ever know what the Lord is thinking?
Or who can ever give him advice?” (Isaiah 40:13)
“Has anyone ever given anything to God,
so that God has to pay them back?” (Job 41:11)
All things come from him.
All things are directed by him.
All things are for his praise.
May God be given the glory forever!
Amen.
Romans 11:33-36 New International Reader’s Version
