1Co 2:9 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.
1Co 2:10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
1Co 2:11 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.
1Co 2:12 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.
1Co 2:13 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.
1Co 2:14 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.
1Co 2:15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
1Co 2:16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
The natural man RECEIVETH NOT the things of the Spirit of God for they are foolishness to him.
How true in this day and age we live in so many believe all things of God are foolishness. They hold up the religions of false gods and use those as reasons to denounce the TRUE GOD. They call it all fables and lies, tales and silliness all because they cannot discern the truth because they’d rather believe the lies.
The believe that because there are so many spoiled and rotten apples on the tree that all of the tree is corrupt and yet on this tree there is a truly good apple. Unwilling to care about the truth, the truly good, they’d rather just give up on it all.
There is TRUTH out there, there is a true faith and rather than entrap it in manmade ideas of it all we must individually know this for ourselves. Step out of any organization you belong to even if you love that organization- especially if you love the organization, and search for yourself the Word of God. Hold to NO MAN’S interpretation but search it for yourselves. Search with the intent to know truth, an honest desire for truth beyond all the wicked lies that have soured the truth for so many.
Our natural selves will NEVER know the things of God, we must comprehend that there is something more in all of us, something that longs for something more than all the senselessness of this life. When we recognize this part of ourselves, this part of the truth, we must pray for comprehension. God WILL reveal His truth to those who are truly seeking TRUTH. To those who recognize the SPIRIT part of our being. We are more than just animals. We are truly spirit and flesh and we have to realize this if we are to comprehend the spirit part of us is God given so that the Holy Spirit can reveal the truth to us.
Please Father, please open our hearts and minds to the TRUTH found in YOU and YOU alone! If we truly live only for the short life we have here and now we live as pawns beset by many forces that want only pain and heartache for us. We resign ourselves to being used when we can choose to be loved. That love offers us a life BEYOND this life, a life as a true son and daughter of our Creator, our Redeemer. A life not as a pawn at all but a life as we deep down inside LONG for and not for ourselves only, but for ALL who would choose love over death.
Please, Father, please.
Amen.
