Points to Ponder

Thoughts on the Wind

John 3:8 – “The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth; so is every one that is born of the Spirit.”

The first time WIND is mentioned in God’s Holy Word (K.J.T.) is found in Gen. 8:1 – “And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and GOD MADE A WIND TO PASS OVER the earth, and the waters asswaged.”

Exegesis would require us to conclude that the WIND is not sovereign nor independent, as GOD Himself CAUSED the RULES OF THE WEATHER – meteorology – and thereby can “cause the wind to pass over.”

Wind is mentioned all through the Old, and also in the New Testament.

However, the thrust of this writing is to establish the continuous fact that WIND is NOT independent nor sovereign. All WEATHER factors are GUIDED by THE CONTROLLER, who is God in one of the Holy Spirit Frameworks. At any time that suits the Holy Trinity’s objectives He becomes THE CONTROLLER, even in that of the NEW BIRTH
