BIBLE MEDITATION:
Thy way is in the sea, and Thy path in the great waters, and Thy footsteps are not known. Psalm 77:19
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Visiting the Sea of Galilee is an unforgettable experience. The Lord Jesus walked on the water there, but you cannot see His footsteps. When a wagon goes across land, it leaves a trail, but when a boat goes through the ocean, it leaves no trail.
In this passage in Psalms, what is God saying? He’s saying we will never know Him only by studying the history of what He has done. His ways are mysterious. Isaiah 55:8-9 says, “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith 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.”
But we can know His ways, for He says in Psalm 103:7, “He made known His ways unto Moses, His acts unto the children of Israel.” And in Micah 4:2 we find, “And many nations shall come, and say, ‘Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths.’”
ACTION POINT:
You can try to make sense of God with all your ingenuity, creativity, and intelligence, but God says we will never know Him that way. We have to lay our intellect in the dust and say to God, “Show me Your ways.”
