10 Nissan 5768 (Hebrew 7th Month) "Plain and Open!"
Through these WORDs spoken by Christ, it is clear that God desires to reveal HIMself plainly and clearly to all who seek to know Truth.
If all I could ever know of God was hidden in figures of speech, and without having Holy Spirit for teaching and revealing HIS WORD, then what could be known would be cloaked from my heart and mind.
These WORDs opened the minds and hearts of Christ's disciples, as they exclaimed later, (paraphrasing)
For it is God's desire that I know the deepest depths of HIS Love, the immeasureable riches of HIS Mercy and comprehend HIS Grace, the unmerited Favor which HE extends through the Gospel.
Accepting HIS WORD, my Faith must be anchored deep in HIS Provision and Promise, knowing that my soul is held firmly in HIS Hand.
It is one thing to believe that God's Spirit transforms my mind, and another to know HE Wills for me to understand HIS Heart.
As my relationship with God is based on Love, it is through knowing HIS WORD, clearly and plainly, why it is that HE gives HIS Spirit as a guarantee binding a Believer's heart to HIM.
I must strive to allow HIM the use of my life, submitting to HIS Spirit, in such a way as to advance the Gospel against the enemy who attempts to kill, steal and destroy the Good WORK of Salvation through Christ.
