Who hath directed the
Spirit of the Lord, or being his counselor hath taught him? With whom took he
counsel, and who instructed him in the path of judgement, and taught him and
shewed to him the way of understanding. Behold the nations are as a drop in a
bucket, and are counted as small dust of the balance. Behold he taketh up the
isles as a very little thing. (Isaiah 40:13-15)
It is truly
amazing how some people walk around with an air of superiority as if they are
the Lord’s personal assistant or even occupy a higher position than the Lord.
The word of God is complete and the Lord has a few questions that He wants
answers to. There is another set of people that exist and they are those that
have doubts about the potency of our God. Because of certain challenges faced
by His children doubt is allowed to blossom and take deep roots in the hearts
of men and women. Sometimes the Lord takes time to give us a wakeup call and
jolt us into thanksgiving.
“Who hath directed the
Spirit of the Lord, or being his counselor hath taught him?” Let me ask is it possible to direct
the Spirit of the Lord? You can only partially direct something or someone you
can see and have more authority over. I am yet to see the traffic warden that
can attempt to give the Holy Spirit direction. Or is there any competent
counselor that can show up and beat his or her chest and claim to have the
competence to teach our God? I am already laughing even as I write. The answer
is a clearly no one. Let me ask whose credentials can rival the one who is
known as I Am That I Am? Can any claim Omniscience, Omnipotent or Omnipresent
in any field?
“And who instructed him
in the path of judgement, and taught him and shewed to him the way of
understanding.” It
is like someone telling me that they function as God’s street light in the
street called “sound judgement”. As if that is not enough the Lord wants to
know who can boast of teaching the one that created the earth in six days and
show the way of understanding. You should be breaking out in worship by now
because you have realized that the Lord Almighty has no such rival and never
will.
“Behold the nations are as a drop in a bucket, and are counted as small dust of the balance.” With all the number of nations we know, the Lord said according to His own measurement; the entire nations equal a drop in a bucket. Let me ask if all the nations equal a drop in a bucket; is your current situation or problem equal to the size of a nation? Then be rest assured that your matter is a joke that the Lord will not seat to answer. We need to take time to digest the knowledge of the awesomeness of our God. “Behold he taketh up the isles as a very little thing. All the islands are a little thing. Hallelujah! Great is our God.
