How God Works

God seems to work in the world through one of three different ways.

1. Natural Order - where God sets in action (through creation) a normal working of the universe and everything in it. This includes His revealing His will to people through His Word and even through their consiences.

2. Miracles - where God breaks into the natural order of things to respond to expressed needs of the people.

3. Providence - where God overrules the natural order to accomplish something that His people may or may not have asked Him for. (This often looks like coincidences or irony.)
