The supernatural

“By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.”


Faith enables you to understand the supernatural. To walk with God you have to take things by faith. You can not wait until you can reason things out before accepting or receiving, you just accept by faith that things will turn out the way God said they will turn out. 

You do not have to understand how the
financial need will be met, nor how your spouse will be saved or how God will turn your marriage around. God never asked you to figure out the how, He just asks you to trust Him. The Scriptures say, “trust the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding”. Don’t lean to your reasoning. Reason is not faith and faith is not reason. 

When it comes to God, reasoning does not figure in the scheme of things at all. God is bigger than your reasoning faculty, so trust Him absolutely. Faith though enables you to understand God and the things of God. An example is how the bumble bee flies. It is against nature, nature says the bumble bee with its big body and tiny wings should not be flying, but it is flying. 

That cannot be figured out, but I can take it by faith. Faith says that which is impossible naturally, is possible by faith.
