ORGANISATION II!                  DO 56            3/71

THE GODLY ORGANISATION OF THE SPIRIT!

         1. OUR DISORGANISATION IS SOMETIMES GOD'S ORGANISATION! It seems like sometimes when I try to get organised in the flesh, I just get discouraged, whereas if I just let God do it, He brings order out of chaos His way! God's way up is often down, & He frequently works contrary to natural expectation, just to show He's God, & the Boss, & can do anything, even the impossible, regardless of the conditions! His ways are not our ways, neither are His thoughts our thoughts, but as high as the Heavens are above the Earth, so high are His ways above our ways & His thoughts above our thoughts! Hallelujah! PTL! GO GOD'S WAY, NO MATTER HOW CRAZY IT MAY SEEM SOMETIMES!--Luke 1:37; Isa.55:8.
         2. MANY TIMES IN THE BIBLE, THE MEN OF GOD EVEN ARGUED WITH THE LORD, that that just wasn't the way to do it; but when they finally let God have His Way, as He will anyhow, they found out God was right--that GOD'S WAY IS THE BEST WAY! 3. SO IT'S A GOOD THING TO BE ABLE TO LAUGH AT YOURSELF & YOUR RIDICULOUS PLANS, WHEN GOD SHOWS YOU A BETTER WAY, in one flash of revelation, worth more than a pound of plans! PTL! God's Will be done! Let God have His Way! Let go & let God! God's way is best! God gives us this little flash, like a flash of lightning on a dark night, that in one flash lights up the whole landscape & clearly shows us the way, when we've been trying to grope around in the dark with our little fleshly flame! PG, Hallelujah! Put your hand into the hand of God, which shall be more unto thee than a light & better than a known way!
         4. WELL, PTL! I SEE HE'S STILL GETTIN' US ORGANISED! AREN'T WE A LAUGH? As that Russian Ambassador said to Napoleon, as the conqueror of all Europe planned to invade Russia, "Man proposes, but God disposes" & the Little Emperor lost nearly 100,000 men in one of the most colossal military failures of all time. Though his plans looked so good, God put a pin in his little balloon & the whole thing fell flat. Watch out that you're following God & not trying to rush ahead of Him to show Him the way you want to go! Amen? PTL! Keep going God's Way! You can't lose-because He can only win!
         5. AS LONG AS WE LET GOD RUN THIS OUTFIT, WE'RE BOUND TO WIN, even when we look like we're losing! But if you or I try to run it, we're bound to lose, even when we look like we're winning! What looks like success to the World may look like defeat to God, & what even looks like defeat to us sometimes is an actual victory for the Lord, for He gets His greatest victories out of seeming defeats, those impossible situations which it takes to make a miracle! We know nothing at all! Sometimes we need to keep our big mouths shut, so God can do the talking & we can hear Him & just follow! So if you really wanna know how to get organised, this is the way: Pray & let God lead first!
