THE SECRET

THE SECRET THINGS

Scripture: Deuteronomy 29:29

Topic: The Secret Things


“The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.”

                                                                                                                                    Deuteronomy 29:29

There are two hemispheres of spiritual things. One is secret, and the second is revealed: 


“The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law” 

                                                                                                                                       Deuteronomy 29:29

God has revealed all He wants us to be aware of, but what we are capable of knowing is but an infinitesimal portion of God’s infinite wisdom. Man has always quarreled with God about secret things because he associates secrecy with selfishness. But nature itself proves that within the Divine administration, secrecy and benevolence coexist. God has not revealed the mystery of germination, but He gives the revelation of the harvests. 


We must not be blinded by the mystery and forget God’s generous blessings. You will discover in the scriptures that God never introduces a conditional covenant without first making Himself known in grace making His commandments attractive to His own. Everything unknown to believers must not be classified as “secret.” This is able to destroy the Biblical teaching of growth in knowledge.


“But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.”

                                                                                                                                                   2 Peter 3:18

The true Believer knows that there are things revealed, and there are things concealed.

    As a believer, I will loose my way if I seek to understand how He gets it done instead of being grateful that it's done!

    May God help me not to try digging into the concealed things but rather appreciate what has been revealed to me by God in Jesus name

    Genesis 3:22-24
    God had another secret and that was the secret of the tree of the fruit of life. If man had eaten this fruit he would have lived in his sin forever and this would be disastrous for not only God but for man. Sin would prevail and it would continue up to eternity or in all eternity but God had to keep the secret of the tree of life to protect man and the human race at large.

    Think about it ,had God not allowed the fall then we would not have known our true state as men and our sinfulness which would expose our need for a saviour. We would never have experienced the Christos who came to die for us ,we would never have experienced the awesome Holy Spirit who prepares us for glory. This one secret that God kept from us has instead of destroying us has saved us.

    God is not selfish. He reveals unto us what we need to know. May I increase in revelation and knowledge of God as I daily feed on His word. There's so much already revealed in His word and creation that's beneficial to me that I'm yet to gain knowledge of. I'll focus on the revealed things and not pry into the secret things.

    The idea that secrecy is synonymous with selfishness lies at the root of man's ongoing battle with God over hidden matters. There are things that are hidden from us and there are things revealed to us, to the intention that, that which is revealed is to be obeyed. The Bible is unequivocal on the subject; Scripture instructs and encourages believers to diligently search out what God has revealed. God has revealed everything He wants us to know, through the knowledge of him that has called us to glory and virtue. The true Believer must therefore understand that there are things revealed, and there are things concealed. Wow!!!

REASONS WHY YOU MUST REDEEM THE TIME - PART 4

Scripture: Psalm 90:9-12 Topic: You must redeem the time because that is the only wise thing to do with your life. Unfortunately, many people do not treat time and opportunity as a special commodity. Time is something rare and precious, which God gives to all of us. It is the only thing you cannot regain or get back. When it is gone, it is gone forever. God’s admonition to us is to use the time we have on earth to do as much for Him as possible. We must work while it is day. The only wise thing to do with your life is to redeem the time for the work of the Lord. "For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told. The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.  Who knoweth the power of thine anger? Even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath. So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts un...

THE POWER OF BEING THANKFUL - PART 6

Scripture : Romans 1:21 Topic : Unthankfulness in a person is a door to many evils.  "Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, NEITHER WERE THANKFUL; BUT BECAME VAIN IN THEIR IMAGINATIONS, AND THEIR FOOLISH HEART WAS DARKENED..."  Romans 1:21 The scripture above shows us clearly that many of the evils and perversions in this world came through unthankfulness. When men discovered more about the creation and discovered the beautiful earth that God had made, they were not thankful.  When they discovered planets, when they discovered the moon and when they discovered the stars, they were not thankful to God. And because they were unthankful, they became vain in their imaginations. Your imaginations become more vain, the more unthankful you are.  When people are unthankful they become almost mad. Their unthankfulness is a form of insanity. Why would you not be grateful for the oxygen you breathe, the air you breathe, the water you drink, the life t...

WHY PRAYER IS MYSTERIOUS PART 3.

WHY PRAYER IS MYSTERIOUS PART 3.  Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:17.  Topic: Why Prayer is Mysterious Part 3.  Prayer is mysterious because God is mysterious! God is mysterious and there is nothing we can do about it! If you think you will ever know everything about God then you must think again! God is not a man and we cannot know everything about Him. It is precisely because of the mysteries surrounding God that a lot of people do not pray.  In this series of our quiet time we will see the mysteries surrounding prayer and we will learn that these mysteries should not keep us from prayer but rather draw us closer in search of answers. 3. Mysteriously, God seems to want us to keep asking about the same things even though we have asked Him before.  "Pray without ceasing." 1 Thessalonians 5:17  If God did not know about our problems on the first day, He must know our problems and our needs by the third day of our prayer. If He knows all things so well, why does...
