We serve an unconventional God. He does not do things according to logic. He makes sure that when He moves, everyone knows that it was His supernatural power that was working.
In God's awesome uniqueness, He often answers prayers in ways that seem to not be answers at all.
For example, when Samuel was sent out to look for Israel's next king after Saul, Samuel could not understand how little old David could ever lead God's nation. Yet God saw David's heart and had the boy anointed to rule.
The widow woman who was prepared to eat her last meal and die with her son found the answer to her prayers by giving that same last meal to the man of God. God stretched her last to feed her through the rest of a famine.
I myself can attest to God's distinctive answers to prayer. I never would have thought that checking a box on a standardized test would allow me to get multiple scholarship offers that enabled me to pick what school I wanted to go to all expenses paid. I honestly thought about not checking that box (didn't want to be a part of the 'statistic-taking') Yet I did, and that's what happened. It's just how my God works.
Don't allow your own 'logic' and 'sense' to keep you from the answer to your prayers. If God shows you something that you can't figure out, don't worry. God has a way of making everything work together for your good.
Just trust Him and go with it! He can use a shout of praise to tear down a city wall. He can allow three men to walk in fire and live. He can bring the life of a child to a virgin woman. He can use mud to open blind eyes. His voice alone can quiet winds...
I'm sure whatever He's showing you is a piece of cake. You already have your answer, go ahead and believe it!
Verse of the Day: For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:9
