Laws Of Nature

God has set in place certain boundaries that are governed by an intricate array of precedents we know as the “Laws of Nature.” These standards are built on a succession of the passage by all elements and matter between lesser and greater laws. For instance, the law of gravity demands that an airplane remain on the ground due to its mass weight. But, that law becomes a lesser rule when the law of lift releases the formula of thrust, which supercedes the law of gravity.

Thrust is the force, which moves an aircraft through the air. Thrust is generated by the engines of the airplane through the reaction of accelerating a mass of gas. The gas is accelerated to the rear and the engine and aircraft is accelerated in the opposite direction. This law can be used to explain the generation of lift by a wing and the production of thrust by a jet engine, which allows the airplane to fly. (This is the basic Thrust Equation: F = mdot e * Ve - mdot 0 * V0 + (pe - p0) * Ae - Isn’t the web a wonderful source of information that allows me to impress you with my ability to research.) All of nature hangs in a delicate balance of its ascending and descending laws.
We live for the most part in a state of conflict with nature, especially those who have been born again through the gift of Salvation. At the point of our spiritual birth we receive an opening in our spirits that allows us to go beyond our natural boundaries. Our new spiritual nature supercedes the human nature we were physically born with through a phenomenon we have come to know as the supernatural. So, if nature is built on laws, and those laws bind us, where does the supernatural fit into this entire picture? Simply, the last law of nature is the opening gateway of the supernatural. Joshua 10:1-15 gives a distinct picture of just what I am trying to show you; I think you just might be able to relate to it.

As soon as word began to spread across the Israelites Promised Land regarding the conquest of Jericho and Ai, two things began to happen simultaneously. The people of Gibeon began the process of positioning themselves with God’s people, while the five Amorite Kings began to strategize an attack against Gibeon, and ultimately against Israel. You can always expect the same two reactions when you begin to possess your promise, allies and enemies.

Nature has a law that dictates the biggest, strongest, smartest, most fortified army will win the conflict we know as war. I’m sure this is what the five Amorite Kings were counting on. Their self-serving alliance had all the right components except one; they were fighting against God’s promise. When nature’s laws pass to one another the affairs of your human existence, there is always one final resting place for their last allegiance, that is the supernatural intervention of God’s promise in your life.

When the supernatural is enacted, every opposing force of nature transcends the origin of its purpose to become the ally of God, whom He commands with the voice of His will. God is not afraid of your nature. When God begins to reveal His promise in your life, the natural elements that were your enemy will transform into your allies and position you for the victory God has destined for you. Nature and all of its governing standards may seem to be the end of your purposed faith, but nature has one last law that it must obey. The last law of nature is to conform to the supernatural will of God for your life.

The elements that make up our environment are here specifically for humanity and it’s existence. Life as we know it is a complex sphere of cycles that work together. Plants and foliage breath in the carbon monoxide we exhale to produce the oxygen we need to breath. But for that process to happen a single seed produces fruit and additional seed for planting. But without condensation and evaporation creating a moisture allocation and recovery system that enables the earth to drink, the seed could not facilitate the plant that generates the oxygen we need to breath. All things work together. Remember, nature is governed by laws that ascend and descend in superiority within each other. But, the last law of nature is to give place to the supernatural.

God determines the course of your process. That process is the mechanism that allows you to possess the promise that God has given you. When it seems like all of nature is against you, those very elements could be the sign of God’s movement to you. Matthew 14:22-34, allows us to look at such a setting.

Jesus makes His disciples go before Him to the other side of the sea while He sends the multitude away, and spends some time in solitude for prayer. The disciples, to the best of their obedience are in the middle of their passage. They are doing what they were commanded, but storms have surrounded them and they are now being tossed by the sea. Have you ever felt like you were doing everything you knew to do, to the best of your ability, and yet it seemed like the storms of life were taking you under? Maybe you felt like the laws of nature were working to destroy you? The reality of your situation is; you only see a limited portion of what is really transpiring.

Psalms 18:1-15, David states his position; surrounded by the sorrows of death, confronted by the snares of death, compassed by Hell’s sorrow, fearful by the floods of the ungodly. In his distress he called upon the Lord, and cried unto God, and God heard his cry. Watch how David describes God response to his cry of distress. “The earth shook and trembled; the foundations of the hills also quaked and were shaken, smoke went up from His nostrils, and a devouring fire from His mouth. The Lord thundered from Heaven and the Most High uttered His voice, hailstones and coals of fire.” Be honest, if you saw all of this, coming in your direction would you be inclined to run?

It is time for you and I to recognize the last law of nature. What we see in the natural elements could be indicators of God’s protection and deliverance moving to us. Those disciples in the middle of a storm tossed sea did not know Jesus was on His way to them, walking of the water. Consider this; was nature simply giving place to a higher law when Jesus came walking in the water? It is possible that what the disciples were experiencing in the storm was nature moving to grant entrance to the supernatural! Your storm could be the sign of God’s intervention! The rain could be the voice of God preparing to speak to your situation. Jeremiah 10:13 states, “When He utters His voice there is a multitude of waters in the heavens!”

You are not the victim of nature’s whims! You are the Righteousness of God in Christ! You are Joint Heirs with Christ! You have been raised up to sit with Christ together in Heavenly places. Stop fretting the storm! It’s just the signal of the supernatural approaching! God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of love, and of power, and of a sound mind.

The last law of nature is the conforming of all elements to the entrance of the supernatural. Rest in it!
