Reaching For Revelation -- March 17, 2009

"But as it is written:

“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God."

1 Corinthians 2:9-10 NKJV

It is true. We have never seen, heard or imagined all that God has for us. However God has revealed them to us by His Spirit. Deuteronomy 29:29 says that there are mysteries that God has kept to Himself but the things that have been revealed belong to us and to our children. The revelation is a gift to us from God – it BELONGS to us and those who we lead to Christ (and especially our natural children). Though we have not yet “seen” what has been prepared for us God has shown us through Christ that heaven and an eternal relationship with.

On top of all of that He has provided for us His Spirit to bring us new life as well as the power, equipment, instructions to use it all. We can begin to have it now by putting His ways into practice.

"But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is,
those who by reason of use have their senses exercised
to discern both good and evil."
Hebrews 5:14 NKJV

Yes, the Father has revealed great things for us, and provided access to them. It is up to us to actually manage them. First we have to believe that they are our and then we must use them.

Reaching for the Revelation,

Pastor Jason
