Knowing about God

What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. — 1 Corinthians 2:12.

How much do you know about God?

I think the apostle Paul’s discussion in 1 Corinthians 2 is one of the deepest in the Bible. If you have experienced what Paul talks about here, you know the Holy Spirit. This is divine wisdom for the mature (2:6).

Paul explains that the Spirit searches “even the deep things of God.” Wow! All who God is, all that God knows, the Spirit has explored. And what does the Spirit do with that intimate knowledge of God’s thoughts? He communicates to us. What a privilege!

The Holy Spirit enables us to understand God, his holiness; his unconditional love his tender mercy and grace so that we can truly worship him. The Spirit enables us to understand the blessings freely given us by God. The Spirit reveals our identity in Christ, what it means to be a new creature. The Spirit opens up the Word of God not only so that we can understand the depth of God’s revelation, but also to enable us to teach these truths to others. The Spirit shapes and molds us into spiritual people so that we can explain spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words.

Do you want to be a person shaped by the Holy Spirit? Let the Holy Spirit capture your heart so that you can share the depths of God with others.

PRAYER

Father, develop in me a thirst of the depth things of your Spirit, that I may worship and serve with understanding. In Jesus’ name Amen.
