My Word Will Not Return To Me Empty, But Will Accomplish What I Desire

ISAIAH 55:8-11
“”For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says 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. “For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater, So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

The Israeli people were foolish to act as if they knew what God was thinking and planning.
His knowledge and wisdom is by far greater than any humans.
Many people today foolishly try to fit God into their mould in an attempt to make His plans and purposes conform to their ideas.
But the truth is, we believers are called to conform to the leadership of Christ by following the leading of the Holy Spirit.
No one can change Gods plans, “There are many plans in a man’s heart, Nevertheless the LORD’s counsel—that will stand.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭19:21‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
Being led by the Spirit involves the desire to hear Him, the readiness to obey and cooperate with Him, in obedience to God’s word, and have the sensitivity to discern between your thoughts and feelings, and His promptings. Living each day by the leadership and guidance of the Spirit will place the words of Christ in your mind, the love of Christ behind your actions, and the power of Christ will help you achieve God’s plans for you and help you to do away with inappropriate selfish desires (PHILIPPIANS 2:13; 4:13). The truth is, when one does his best, God will do the rest.
But how does one discern between the Spirit and the flesh?
Human beings are made up of three parts, spirit, soul, and body (1 THESSALONIANS 5:23). Our spirit is who we really are in sprit form;  God created us in His own image (GENESIS 1:27), before we were in our mothers womb (JEREMIAH 1:5).
Our soul is our mind, will, and emotions, where we make our choices and decisions.
But the heart being part of the flesh, is deceitful (JEREMIAH 17:9). it does anything to please the flesh; it looks to survive, for we inherited a sinful nature from Adam and Eve.
Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned— (For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come. But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭12‬-‭15‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
The imparting Holy Spirit joins our spirit (1 CORINTHIANS 6:17), “who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.”
‭‭II Corinthians‬ ‭1‬:‭22‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

He does not enter our soul unlike unclean spirits who take away our free will. They therefore when we join them in sin, can enter the flesh and the soul and we become demonised, but not our spirit that has been made perfect in Christ.

The battle between the Spirit and the flesh is in the soul where we make our decisions, “For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.”
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭17‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
We can choose by free will to walk in the Spirit or to walk in the flesh; it is a free choice to walk in the darkness or in light; but we must understand, the devil will have a massive influence over our mind, will, and emotions when we are demonised. Deliverance is therefore key to a changed life.
The Holy Spirit gives us intuition, a gut feeling, it is knowing in your knower what to say, do, respond, or where to go; He gives good instruction, while your flesh speaks from head knowledge, from the soul, mind, will and emotions, and will lead to sin and death.
“I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.”
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬-‭26‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
The truth is God’s plan for your life is best for you. He knows you better than you know yourself; He is your creator.
Therefore, “Seek the LORD while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the LORD, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon. “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says 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. “For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater, So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. “For you shall go out with joy, And be led out with peace; The mountains and the hills Shall break forth into singing before you, And all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭55:6-12‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
All glory to God forever and ever! Amen.
