DIVINE REVELATION


June 6, 2013


Revelation is the unfolding process of something that has already existed. In order words, in a “Who wants to be a millionaire” TV show, all the answers are already known but can only be revealed after the contestant has picked his own choice.

In the kingdom of God, divine revelation means the unveiling of something that has been somewhere before the time of the revealing. It means making known or informing.

1 Cor 2: 9-10 says “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.” Hallelujah!

Some of us struggle with life because we just can’t reason out why God wants us to do something. Why would God ask me to give my only car out when I have just one? Why would God ask me to resign when I don’t have another offer yet? One thing about divine revelation is that it’s always against natural reasoning. It will never make sense to a natural man (1 Cor 2:14). What the Spirit of God will reveal unto you to do will most times if not all the times be contrary to humanly prescribed way because His ways are higher than our ways.

Marching around the wall of Jericho and blowing some kind of trumpet on the seventh day did not make sense. Bathing in river Jordan did not make sense to Namaan. Preparing her last meal for a man who calls himself a Prophet did not make any sense.

However, if the children of Israel had not march round the wall and blow the trumpet, the wall of Jericho would never have collapsed. If Namaan had not gone to have his bath in river Jordan, he would have remained an honorable leper. If the widow had not prepared that meal for the prophet, she would have ate it alone and died.

My prayer is that God will show you clear next steps to take as regards that worrisome area of your life in Jesus Name. Amen!
