Secret Wisdom

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!

Walk Of Faith

I wonder, do you think we miss God’s purpose for our lives because we are waiting to learn more of what God has planned for us? Truth is; God isn’t required to lay it all out for us. All He must do if He has a plan for our lives is to show us how and then enable us to do it. It seems when we don’t know all the particulars, life is too perplexing. We think, “ but I need to know just what God wants me to do.” Abram (later known as Abraham) probably had thoughts just like this. God asked Abram to go somewhere he wasn’t familiar with and he most likely thought of asking God, Lord, must I go somewhere I don’t know, can’t I just stay here in Haran? However, God’s plan for Abram was far greater than anything Abram could ever imagine. Our personal feelings, vision, and human reasoning will always get in the way of our walk of faith . God teaches us to have faith in Him by placing us in positions where our feelings, vision, and common knowledge don’t work for us. Haven’t you ex...

Get Out Of Your Boat

In (Matthew 14:25) Jesus had told the disciples to get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side of the lake. The Bible says; He went up on a mountainside by Himself to pray. The wind was strong that night and the waves buffeted the small boat, tossing it to and fro. It would have been a frightening time to be out on the water; especially that late at night. The men in the boat trembled with fear, and when they saw Jesus walking out to them on the water they thought He was a ghost. Jesus assured them it was He and they should not be afraid. Peter, one of the disciples, said, “Lord, if it’s You, tell me to come to You on the water!” Jesus told him, “Come.” Peter stepped out of the boat, walked toward Jesus, but when he saw the wind; the Bible says, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Peter’s faith was strong, at first. He was walking on the top of the waves just as Jesus was, but the moment he allowed himself to think rationally instead of t...

THIS IS A SPECIAL POSTING. PLEASE READ!

In addition to my daily message today, this is something very special I believe the Lord wants me to post right now! Help Me Overcome My Unbelief! As a Christian, I believe God loves me and wants the best for me. Certainly, in His Word (Psalm 103:3 NIV) the Psalmist wrote; Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits – who forgives all your (my) sins and heals all your (my) diseases, who redeems your (my) life from the pit…. I know this, really I do! Still, there are times when I don’t see God actually doing what I expect Him to do; to save me from my trouble; to provide me with what I want; and to provide the healing release I expect. Before I became a Christian I really had a problem with faith, much less be able to cling to any promises God made to me; regardless of whether I was a Christian or not! Therefore, I understand how we can have moments of unbelief, or we can just flat out not trust what God has promised us. This is Satan at work, big time !  “Get...
