Here is a riddle that the devil and the secular world can not solve.
" The weakness of GOD is stronger than men and the foolishness of GOD is wiser than men" .
This divine truth written in the Holy Bible still to the present time confounds the world. and the devil because the world and the devil focus on and dwell in matters concerning men and not the things of GOD.
Matt 16:23 But He turned and said to Peter, "Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on God's interests, but man's.
Man's interest and God's interest are most often opposed to each other so what looks like defeat to men is in many cases victory with Jesus and what looks like a victory to men is often a failure in GOD. We can not obtain understanding of what makes a life victorious in Jesus without the intervention of the Holy Spirit. For many of you GOD's riddle is solved because the Holy Spirit intervened.
What we've learned - what appears to men as weakness and defeat in our life is manifesting GOD's strength (victory) and what appears as nonsense and stupidity to men regarding our renewed mind contains the transcendent wisdom of GOD.
1 Cor 2:9 but just as it is written,
"THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD,
AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN,
ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM."
1 Cor 2:10 For to us God revealed them through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.
