The Spirit searches
all things, even the deep things of God
Most likely you have heard other Christians make a statement
about their faith or something God has imparted to them by their saying; “I
know, that I know, that I know.” This
statement attempts to explain something we know but can’t necessarily describe
to others. It’s an understanding of a secret wisdom only God can give us. This
wisdom of such matters as God wants us to know is given to us by His Holy
Spirit. Scripture says God destined us to have this hidden knowledge long
before time began. In (1 Corinthians 2:9) “No
eye has seen, / no ear has heard, / no mind has conceived / what God has
prepared for those who love His-- following in (v.10) …but God has revealed it to us by His Spirit.”
We can and shall rejoice in our understanding, our secret
wisdom, because we have been given this wonderful gift knowing that God has an indescribable
love for us. Isn’t this truly awesome? With His love comes His concern for our
welfare, our happiness and our privileged relationship with Him! We are blessed, my friends! Pity the poor
man or woman who does not or will not, accept these things that are spiritually
discerned. The Bible says such things of the spirit that are from God are but
foolishness to him or her.
So, knowing many thoughts of God are secretly revealed to us
spiritually by His Holy Spirit, if we want to know even more of how God thinks
about us we have His Word, the Bible. In (v.15) of (1 Corinthians 2) the Apostle
Paul says, “The spiritual man makes
judgments about all things, but he himself is not subject to any man’s
judgment: “For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him?”
Paul closes this chapter by saying, “But we have the mind of Christ.”
We are a blessed people, who know Jesus Christ. Our
inheritance is that of a King, and this wonderful knowledge we have of the Holy
Spirit about God almighty is certainly, and without any doubt awesome!
