Today's Study:
19 - Be Full of the Holy Spirit
1 Corinthians 2
9 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."
10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit.
For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
NKJV
The Lord Jesus Christ promised in John 14: I go to prepare a place for you.
John 14:2 (NKJV)
In our key scriptures today, the Apostle Paul tells us that we cannot even begin to imagine what this place will be like - except that God has revealed these things to us through His Spirit!
One of the functions of the Holy Spirit in our life, is to reveal things: that is, to help me see things from God's point of view.
The first thing He reveals to me is the Lord's view of sin, righteousness and judgement. (See John 16: 7 - 11)
When we respond positively to His revelation of those matters, the Holy Spirit can begin to reveal other matters to me. So another matter the Holy Spirit reveals, is what God has prepared for the future of those who LOVE Him.
Prayer:
Father, I thank You for beginning to open my understanding concerning Your view of matters on earth.
Today I ask that You increasingly reveal Your point of view about matters that concern my future, both for my life here on earth, and then for the life beyond this,
in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, who not only laid down His life for me, but who then took His life back from death. To Him be all glory in this age and the next,
Amen.

See you tomorrow, God willing, when you'll find a new thought here to challenge you! Meanwhile, have a great day walking with the Lord!
