"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. For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ." I Corinthians 2:9-16
Dear Friends,
We cannot know all that the Lord has prepared for us. The scriptures tell us that eyes have not seen, ears have not heard, neither have entered into the hearts of man, the things that God has prepared for those that love him. Yet, we know that He has prepared a place for us. He has made provisions for us. There is no happenstance with God. He is ever present, ever faithful in providing all that we need.
Sometimes it is good to just stop and think about the Lord. It is good to pause and consider His goodness. After a while it makes sense to reflect some more on His continuous provisions. And once in a while, think again about all that God has already done in your life.
God makes His presence known through the Holy Spirit. He searches our hearts and as we align ourselves with the Word of God. He reveals His will and His way for our life. The question is asked "For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man but the Spirit of God."
It is because of the Holy Spirit indwells our thoughts that we are able to receive the things of God in our spirit. Every facet, every aspect of this Christian life God is taking care of.
He want us to trust Him with our thoughts and He will regulate them to withstand the many things that war against our minds.
"Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee." Isaiah 26:3
in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie
