GOD INTELLIGENT THAN ALL OF US COMBINED

Sir,
It is an undisputed fact that God comprehends all things, and that relates to
His high intelligence. I have read, from some ancient record that God is more
intelligent than all of us combined. Do we have the capacity to dispute this? If
so, how do we begin, particularly when we consider this: “For my thoughts are
not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” said the Lord. “For as
the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and
my thoughts than your thoughts,” Isaiah 55:8-9. All of us have many problems;
and as we go around, we look for men and women of intelligence – the problem
solving ability, you see!
Solve
We literally seek those who will solve our problems. We pay a fortune to those
who use their intelligence to solve the problems of mankind. The reason we go to
school is so that we increase our problem solving ability.
It is for the same reason we take up challenges, new adventures, explore one
thing after the other – we seek experience – experience being the best
teacher, and it increases our problem solving ability. As we increase in this,
we are able to not just alleviate problems of our own lives, we also solve other
people’s problems and this makes us feel a sense of worth; it earns us money.
So you see why we go to school and the emphasis on education. It is so that we
serve other people, and we serve others by solving their problems, and as we
solve their problems, we are paid and thereby earn a living.
Develop
We are all given portions of intelligence, and our Creator expects us to exact
ourselves and develop our intelligence and not hide it under the earth by disuse
(remember the parable of talents and the consequences of hiding in the earth
one’s talent). Everyone of us has a divine right to the aid of universal
intelligence which science likes to call energy, which religion calls the Spirit
of God. We get this aid consciously and unconsciously. Even as you read this
material, you have this back up stuff. When one becomes aware of this support
stuff, fear to do is reduced, and we get a lot more confident to venture.
