Daily D – Isaiah 55:8-9

by David Bowman | May 2, 2024 | Daily D | 0 comments

Isaiah 55:8, 9 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways.” This is the Lord’s declaration. “For as heaven is higher than earth, so my ways are higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.“ (CSB)

Elevate your game. Think better thoughts. Take better lead actions. Enjoy better outcomes. Think God’s thoughts after him.

I have never had an original thought. There’s a pretty good chance you haven’t, either. Contrary to many of our teachers along the way, originality is not the most important thing in our writing and speaking. Alignment and attunement with the heart and mind of God are much more important.

God invites us to think with him. (See Isaiah 1:18-20.) He invites to exchange our errant considerations for his perfect understanding and direction (See 55:7.)

We elevate our game and we improve our lives by pondering God’s words of truth and life. We do this when we make time to read the Bible day by day. We enhance this when we commit to memory verses like these. Knowing God’s heart and mind and allowing him to shape our own leads us in the right direction as we navigate our journeys day by day.

How high will you jump or bounce today? God has an idea for you on that.

I will elevate my life by thinking God’s thoughts after him.

Our Father, open my heart to your words of truth and life. Give me ears to hear what you are saying. Give me a willing and obedient heart to do what you say, to follow where you lead. Give me your perspective on all things at all times. Amen.
