THE MYSTERY OF GOD
The
Secret Things Of GOD
"The Secret things belong to The Lord our God, but the
things revealed belong to us..." Deuteronomy 29:29
There are secrets The LORD our GOD has not revealed
to us, but 'the things revealed' which belong to us are knowledge and wisdom
and the treasures of Heaven which are GOD-given to us so that we may follow all
the written Words (the Logos) of His Law.
Friendship with God is reserved for those who
reverence Him.
"The Secret of The Lord is with them that fear Him; and He
will show them His covenant."
Psalm 25:14
The Presence of The Lord is Secret.
"Thou shalt hide them in the Secret of Thy
Presence..."
Psalm 31:20
"He that dwelleth in the Secret Place of The Most
High..."
Psalm 91:1
Also, The Lord made us in 'the secret place.'
"My frame was not hidden from You when I was made in the
secret place..." Psalm 139:15
God's Secret is His friendship. When we become
friends of God, we receive grace to come into His Presence, and to receive from
Him of His heavenly blessings. Friendship with GOD grants us access to His
heavenly treasures.
The more our relationship with Him develops, the
more He reveals Himself to us, and the more that we gain access to His heavenly
resources.
The LORD reveals His secret plans to His prophets
who are His 'mouth-piece'.
"Surely The Lord God will do nothing, but He revealeth His
Secret unto His servants the prophets."
Amos 3:17 KJV
When Christ came to the earth, He spoke to the crowd
in parables; showing lessons from history, stories handed down from former
generations. This was noted prophetically as: 'dark sayings of old'
(Psa.78:2-4).
God chooses to reveal some things to His people, and
some other things to kings, and rulers.
"It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour
of kings is to search out a matter" Proverbs 25:2
"The Secret of The Lord is with them that fear Him; and He
will show them His covenant." Psalm 25:14
All of the discoveries, inventions and advancement
by men are nothing compared to 'the Secret Things of God.' Therefore, let us
remember Paul's words concerning what The LORD has entrusted to us:
"So then, men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and
as those entrusted with the Secret Things of God."
I Corinthians 4:1
