The Essence Of Revelation

Apostle Grace Lubega

1 Corinthians 2:9-10(KJV); But as it is written, 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.

There are truths in God that one can never appreciate by systematic theology. This doesn’t mean that systematic theology in itself is wrong but it has its limitations.

It is limited to what has been revealed to a man and the place he is in God.

God can meet you on a higher plane than that of another man’s walk with him. The revelation and understanding of another man is not your standard. In this wisdom, even Paul refers to what he teaches as merely the foundation and calls on you to build.

This doesn’t mean that we do not learn from those that have gone ahead of us or from other men’s teachings.

Rather, you must remember that the access you have is to the bottomless things in God. You have the liberty to draw it out.

God does not want to merely open your eyes to the truths and mysteries in the scriptures; He wants to open the scriptures to you. That is the essence of the Spirit of revelation.

In these times, God is raising men who will teach truths that cannot be found on another man’s CD, in another man’s book or in a Bible Study guide.

GOLDEN NUGGET:

God does not want to merely open your eyes to the truths and mysteries in the scriptures; He wants to open the scriptures to you. That is the essence of the Spirit of revelation.

PRAYER: Father, I thank you for this Word. I carry understanding in my spirit and with this wisdom, I draw from the bottomless depths in God. I see that which no eye has seen and hear what no ear has heard. Revelation is my portion and story. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
