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.

Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Ghost teaches...
1 Corinthians 2:12,13


This is one of the most enlightening scriptures in all of the Bible!
It truly shows the heart of the Father, in demonstrating His desire for us to know and understand what He has done for mankind. It's not the nature of Love Himself (God IS Love) to hold back from mankind what He paid such an enormous price for us to have.

It is God's will for His children to know exactly what He has given to them in Jesus Christ. Some Christians believe that "you just can't understand God, or His ways"...these people are simply not paying attention to what God is saying to us in His Word! The key to gaining revelation knowledge is to learn through the wisdom of the Holy Spirit, and not the wisdom of mankind. This is going to require a personal, intimate relationship with God the Father through Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit. The key to revelation knowledge is to look at things from God's point of view. After all...He is the Creator and He knows everything, which makes Him right!

The Bible contains God's Word (His Will), which is highly misunderstood because of the blindness of mankind's understanding (2 Corinthians 4:4) concerning spiritual things. The spiritual realm is MORE real than this natural realm, and is the parent force that created everything which makes it the greater force and the controlling force. The created can never be greater than the Creator, so the spiritual realm where God lives and operates from has absolute control over this natural (physical) realm in which we live. The key to a successful relationship with God is to live and operate from the spiritual realm as He does, in agreement with Him living by the spritual principles that He put into place. The spiritual realm can only be understood from God's point of view, not man's point of view (1 Corinthians 2:14) which is why God gave us the ministry of the Holy Spirit!

In case you haven't heard by now, there is a fallen angel that is running loose in this natural, carnal world in which we live who will continue to attempt to choke God's Word from your life by planting bad seeds in your life through wrong thinking and deception so you don't produce results (Matthew 13:24,25). If you don't like seedtime and harvest, you'll have to get over it because Jesus said the kingdom of God works by this simple, easy to understand principle (Mark 4:26). This is a basic, foundational principle that governs God's Kingdom as well as His relationship with mankind.

This creature mentioned above is satan (the devil), and Jesus has stripped him of his power and authority where God's people are concerned. (Colossians 2:15) The Bible says that Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8 ) which we know He accomplished because God was pleased with the ministry of Jesus Christ (2 Peter 1:17). The problem with many Christians is they either don't know this, choose to not believe this because of false religious teachings (carnal, man-made teaching based on the wisdom of man and not the wisdom of God), or just haven't been taught how to live according to the victory Jesus won for mankind over the forces of darkness!

We need to know what the Bible actually teaches from God's point of view, and not the point of view of man-made, carnal religion which is based on the five physical senses and not the faith of Jesus Christ. He is a real person that many people don't know how to relate to. The way to relate to the Father is by looking at things from His point of view, which is what is right.

This is one of the many subjects that people should take time to study and learn to help understand that God is a loving Father who is very approachable. He desires to have intimate relationship with you! This is a kind of controversy in a world dominated by carnal thinking where people have been trained since birth to consider this natural realm in which we live to be absolute truth. The Bible states in 2 Corinthians 4:18 that the things we see in this physical realm are temporary, which means they can be changed and are not permanent like spiritual things.

Many Christians have no idea that the way they think is contrary to the way God thinks, therefore mature Christians should not live with any animosity towards those that think and live carnally. Its our job to live in the spirit and lead by example through victorious living to help those that are carnal minded to become spiritually minded, so they too can experience victory in their lives (Romans 8:1,2)...if they chose to consistantly stand up spiritually and rebel against all the things Jesus suffered to set us free from! (James 4:7)

Understanding and acting on God's Word is what is REALLY important. The reason that we need God's wisdom and understanding is so we can walk with our Father, our Creator in a personal way so His will is done in our lives. The reason the Father created mankind in the first place is so He can share Himself and all that He has with us...It's His desire to be directly involved in every area of your life, starting now while you are still here on this earth! This is a relationship, not a religion!

Our primary purpose in life is to grow and learn how to view things from God's point of view so we can live our lives in fellowship and agreement with Him which brings Him much pleasure. This enables us to live in the freedom that God enjoys Himself. He never intended for mankind to have to live under the control of the destruction that is in this world. He sent Jesus to free mankind from this, but you have to find out what God's will is before it can become a reality in your life.

Living in fellowship with the Father is the desire that God has put deep into the heart of every person ever born! It's His desire to see His Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven (Matthew 6:10) in our lives. We don't have to wait until we get to Heaven to know our Father and fellowship with Him...you and I are called to be doing that now through the Holy Spirit! The Father has been calling you to fellowship...have you answered His call?
