"Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit." Psalm 147:5
God does not need our help.
Do you like to help God occasionally? Do you like to give God tips on how something should be done or when something should happen? Do you give God a nudge from time to time when you think that He is not coming through for you?
Well, don't read these questions and act appalled... we have all done these things. I do not think any of us believe that God needs our help. We all know that He is the Creator and in control of everything. We know this, but we still act in opposition to this knowledge and belief at times.
Human nature can make us act really dumb. Our flesh wants us to take the wheel and put God riding shotgun in our lives. Or, for those of us who aren't comfortable driving, we want to sit shotgun and be God's navigator while he taxis us around. No matter how much help your human nature wants to give God, He doesn't need it. And it really reflects a lack of faith, trust, security, love, etc.. in your relationship with God. So, how about we stop acting so disrespectfully by trying to help God when He has already won for us?
