THE MYSTERY KEPT SECRET


Romans 16:25 (NKJV) 25 Now to Him who is able to establish you …, according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began
   Not so many years ago, challenged to hear about God from His Word, I listened and discovered the most amazing truth. Wisdom does not come from man, it is not outlined in a book that we can discover, neither is it found in the quiet meditation of some religion, wisdom and its source comes only from the God of creation and He has prescribed how it is received. How can we get wisdom, I am so glad you asked?
   In the book of Proverbs 1:7 (NKJV) 7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, the starting point of wisdom is with God. Only the beginning, the entire life of a person can be spent chasing dreams and never glean enough wisdom to satisfy the searching heart. Studying in all the schools for all ones life will not quench the honest thirst for the seat of wisdom, the wisest known man ever to live said, "I found everything to be futile and a pursuit of wind." Ecclesiastes 2:11
   Jesus says, "Come to Me," Matthew 11:28, the God of all things says, "seek Him," Matthew 7:7 the mystery of wisdom we are all searching for lies in plain sight in the Power and Presence of God. The Lord of salvation says, "I am the way," can it be any simpler than trusting our maker? He made the way to wisdom clear and Jesus Himself is that wise truth.
   Only Jesus can establish us, only Jesus will reveal wisdom to the one who has embraced Him, His way, for His Glory. Won't you do that today, ask Him, to forgive you of searching in the wrong places of living for you and tell Him you want His way living in you.
Heavenly Father, thank you for making the way to wisdom clear, thank you for Your Son Jesus, and for His blood that makes us clean. Let all of Your Word sink into our hearts, that we may reflect the light of Life for all to see. Amen
