Go higher!

Isaiah 55:8‭-‬9
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

Can you imagine the distance between heaven and earth? There is a huge distance and gap between the ways of God and our ways, between our thoughts and His thoughts. Heavenly ways and thoughts are absolutely different from the ways and thoughts of the earth.

You can never live and enjoy the higher life that God has for you by living according to the thoughts and ways of this world. Some one might say, 'We can never know the ways and thoughts of God because it's way too high and we can never reach it'. Man has reached the moon but How can he reach heaven to know the thoughts and ways of God? With man it is impossible but not with God, for with God all things are possible. Two thousand years ago, God sent his only begotten Son, Jesus to reveal the nature, the ways and the thoughts of God. Jesus is the image of the invisible God and exact representation of His being. In the new covenant, the thoughts and ways of God are revealed in the person of Jesus Christ. The thoughts and ways of God are collected and captured in God's word. As you behold Jesus by continually abiding on God's word, the Holy Spirit will reveal the ways and thoughts of God so you can live days of heaven on earth just like Jesus, your Lord.

Friend, as a believer of the Lord Jesus, renewing your mind is your number one priority and it's a daily process. To renew your mind simply means exchanging your thoughts and ways with the thoughts and ways of God. It means refusing to live by the ways and thoughts of the earth and building your life on heavenly ways and thoughts. You do this by constantly spending time in the word of God and allowing it to change your thinking. You are a citizen of heaven and the King of kings has sent you to the earth to reveal the character of your King and the culture of your heavenly kingdom. You will do well. This is your time.
