1 Corinthians 2:19 – These are the things God has revealed to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.
James 1:5 – If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God [Who gives] to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him.
It has been said that nuggets of God’s truth are discovered by hammering away at the Word through prayer. I offer that we need no hammer, we need discipline, faith and love. We need discipline to first seek God and to ask Him to unveil His Word to us. We need faith to believe that God is good and that He loves us and because that is so, He will reveal His Word to us. Prayer is not a hammer to bang loose nuggets of truth from His Word. That is too much self-effort. Prayer is designed to be regularly used and the more it is used the more proficient at it the user becomes. Prayer is a God designed device and faith is the oil that lubricates it. We do not need to bang or pry God’s truth from the Word. We need to remember that The Lord wants us to have the riches of His wisdom and knowledge. It’s why He gave it us His Word in the first place. He freely gives it to those who love him and seek Him. So we pray that the Lord will reveal His Word to us, then we open and read it, knowing that God has heard our prayer, found it to be good, and He gives us what we have prayed for. Easy Peasy! He loves that! Praise God!
Psalm 150:6 – Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord!
Micah 7:7 – But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.
Micah 6:8 – He has shown You, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of You but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with Your God.
Numbers 6:24-26 “The Lord bless you and keep you; 25 the Lord make His face shine on you and be gracious to you; 26 the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace.”
