Leviticus 11:15 NLT
“ravens of all kinds,”
The intelligent designer
Every human possesses various qualities and attributes, including the ability to seek knowledge. When we desire to learn more, God does not question us; instead, He welcomes our inquiries. In Isaiah 1 verse 18, God invited us to come to Him to reason together. One such area is Leviticus 11, which discusses how certain land and marine animals, as well as specific birds, were considered unclean for consumption by the people of Israel. Although God did not provide a reason, Moses accepted this without questioning, possibly because he was content with God’s provision for them or because he operated at the same frequency as God. It’s important to note that things of God may not always make sense to us unless we operate in the same frequency with Him and demonstrate contentment in His provision.
Despite not being listed as a viable meat source, certain birds, such as ravens, have other purposes. Recent research has shown that ravens have cognitive abilities similar to great apes and are highly intelligent. Ravens have been observed collecting harmful items like sharp rocks, broken glass, screws, and other debris and piling them up in trees to prevent them from causing harm to other animals. This behaviour suggests that ravens have a sense of ecological responsibility, which may be why God created them. This is yet another indication that God is an intelligent designer. Friends, God knows what is good for you. Therefore, refrain from circumventing His plan for your life.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, please help me so that I will not truncate Your plans for my life. In Jesus’s name. Amen.
