Christian Devotional – November 8, 2019

How does God work? God moves and works within the structure and framework that he has set up. But does God do works by the law? Read Galatians 3:5.

So then, does He who provides you with the Spirit and works miracles among you, do it by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?
Galatians 3:5 NASB

As we saw yesterday, God set up the law so that we would understand our need for Christ. So, when we think about how God works, God is the ultimate fulfillment of the law. However, God is not limited by the law. God is greater than the law and as a result he can move and work inside the law if he chooses to or outside the law if he chooses to. God created, understands, and chooses to work through the concept of faith.

Those of us who have faith in God will see and understand the movement and the workings of God in ways that are not confined by the laws that God laid down in the Old Testament. God is more than the law that he created. Are we open to understanding all that God is or are we busy confining God to our ideas of what he should be?
