In earthly Mathematics, twenty-four hours make one day
But in the Mathematics of heaven, a thousand years make one day
‘’One day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day’’
Therefore take not the patience of God for granted
In earthly Mathematics, one plus one is unquestionably, two
But in the Mathematics of heaven, pertaining to marriage, one plus one is one
‘’Shall a man … cleave unto his wife and they shall be one flesh’’
Therefore beware of the danger of disunity with your spouse
In earthly Mathematics, an offer of assistance to the needy reduces the giver’s substance
But in the Mathematics of heaven, it increases the giver’s substance a hundredfold
‘’Give and it shall be given you…good measure, shaken together, running over’’
Therefore help yourself by helping the needy
In earthly Mathematics, tithing is a deficit to the tither
But in the Mathematics of heaven, it is the key to financial abundance
‘’And prove me now…if I will not open the windows of heaven…’’
Therefore beware of the danger of robbing God by evading tithes
In earthly Mathematics, two ‘’fishes’’ and a loaf of bread can hardly feed a person
But in the Mathematics of heaven, same quantity can feed thousands of people
Remember the left-over of ‘’twelve baskets with fragments’’
Therefore trust God who brings out plenty out of nothing
May we not be deceived by our earthly mathematical skills.
Happy New Month!
