Revelations: Layers of Truth
There is so much of what Jesus said in the Book of John alone that hasn't been tapped into even in our generation. Why then do we "seek a word" from "the prophets?" Is getting alone with God, by His Holy Spirit, asking Him to reveal what He means by what Jesus spoke and was written down, not spectacular enough for us? If He decides to shed some light on His spoken word, putting aside all "traditional interpretations," He can open us up to so much understanding that it can impact our lives by literally changing us. It's not that we just keep reading His Word by rote over and over again, and then by that our minds are "renewed" like it's been taught in many Christian circles. "In all your getting, get understanding," God says. In other words, we need to understand what He meant when He wrote the words of life and truth. With this divine understanding, the change can then impact others in a way that maybe can't be seen or documented, but we need to remember that we walk by faith and not sight. And the Kingdom of God is like a seed that's planted-He gives us new life under the soil (germinates us), and then the blade, the ear, and the full corn in the ear appear.( But not apart from his life-giving work, He first does in us, that no one sees.) We can't make ourselves into something. We can perfect appearances and fool many people, even ourselves, but, I believe, one of the ways He changes us is by imparting to us the spirit of understanding to reveal to us the truths of what He was already trying to say when He walked this earth. He said many times, "Those who have ears, let them hear what the Spirit is saying." The true communcation of His words (the truth) is still there for us to tap into, and receive into our spirits bringing more and more life and truth. So, let's seek re-entry into the heart of the Father by asking Him to reveal to us the layers of truth that He has implanted in the spoken words of Jesus. If you want a Bible Code, this is it.
