GOD UNVEILED

1 Cor.2:9,10 – but just as it is written:
“THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD,
AND WHICH HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HUMAN HEART,
ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.”
For to us God revealed them through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.

The unveiling of God to our hearts is the work of the Holy Spirit. Paul said that when we pray in tongues we are praying mysteries. If you combine all of this with the infinite nature of God you will have to come to some amazing conclusions. Touching the mysteries of God is what the prayer language is all about. If you think about that for a moment, we will never get to the end of this unveiling of God, if He is infinite and amazing it will take all eternity (which means it will never end) to comprehend Him. This can become quite interesting because the more we see what He is really like the only response we can have is worship. We see His mercy – we worship. We see His goodness – we worship. We see His wisdom – we worship. We get caught up in the melody and harmony of heaven where everything is focused on Him and worship is the only response. Here is how Corey Russell describes this unveiling of God.

“According to First Corinthians, one of the Holy Spirit’s main job descriptions is to search out the deep things of God (His mysteries) and make them known to the redeemed. As we engage the Holy Spirit through praying in the Spirit, we are actually being filled with the things that are burning on His heart. We have been given the Holy Spirit so that God might take us on a guided tour of Himself. The Holy Spirit is the search engine—the Spirit that searches all things, even the deep things of God—and we have received Him so that we might know the things that have been freely given us by God.”

The Lord is seeking authentic worshippers, that’s what the ministry of Jesus was all about. He came to reveal the love of God to us and transform all of us into His worshippers. Like Jesus said to the woman at the well in Samaria, “God is a Spirit and they that worship Him must worship in Spirit and in truth”.
Like everyone else I never saw myself as a worshiper, it is in the unveiling of God to our hearts that this transformation takes place.
