Partnering with GOD

31“Can you direct the movement of the stars—
binding the cluster of the Pleiades
or loosening the cords of Orion?
32 Can you direct the sequence of the seasons
or guide the Bear with her cubs across the heavens?
33 Do you know the laws of the universe?
Can you use them to regulate the earth?
36 Who gives intuition to the heart
and instinct to the mind?
- Job 38


GOD's power is incomparable and indescribable to the finite human mind. Nothing compares to seeing the great hand of GOD do great works and it is fulfilling to the human heart to be a witness to GOD's works. GOD's power is so great and so complex that it takes a lifetime to understand and study what GOD has done and who GOD truly is. GOD's greatness is beyond comprehension, but it doesn't mean GOD is living us on the sides just to watch HIM do what HE does. GOD doesn't only want humans to be spectators to His wonderful acts. GOD's heart wants to partner with us through what HE wants to accomplish here on earth.

Intuition is a gift that comes only from GOD above. Intuition is the ability to understand something immediately, without the need for conscious reasoning. HE gives instinct and the ability for us to survive. But even more than the natural gifts that GOD gives to human kind, GOD wants us to ask and seek for wisdom. Wisdom is the ability to have sound action or decision, having good judgement. This kind of gift can only attained when we truly ask it from GOD and seek His ways because we want to live a life worth while, a life worthy of GOD's praise. The very reason why GOD wants us to seek and ask for wisdom is so HE can partner with us in doing the works HE wants to accomplish on earth. We may be able to live and survive with our own human wit, but can we ever live a fulfilling life without the work of GOD in our lives and us working with HIM?
