Daily Scripture

“‘For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,’ declares the LORD. ‘As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.’”

Isaiah 55:8-9, NIV

Daily Encouragement

The Israelites had several times where they believed that their plans were better than God’s plans. We have times in our life where we do the same. It is foolish to act as if we know better than God or to act like we know how God thinks. We are not God; God is God. God’s thoughts and ways are higher than our ways and thoughts. 


Read the Daily Scripture again. You can trust in His ways. Let us humble ourselves and push way our pride since we do not know the magnificent ways of the Lord or see life through His infinite perspective. God sees the best path for us, so we should always follow His ways for our life, instead of our own plans! 

Daily Reflection

Are you trusting God’s path for your life? Instead of trying to fit God in your plans, make every effort to be in God’s plans. Never forgot that God is omniscient and all-seeing from the beginning of time and forevermore. 

Daily Quote

"God’s thoughts and ways are higher than our ways and thoughts."
