A SECRET REVEALED

February 24th Reading

Do you love to figure out a secret? A couple weeks ago my daughter came home from school with a pretty silver box. She told me that it was on her desk when she arrived to school. During her bathroom break she opened the box to discover a cute heart necklace with no note.

She came home and told me that she had a SECRET ADMIRER!

The secret.... was causing her to seek out the mystery. She wanted to KNOW who gave her the necklace.
The suspicion kept her waiting for evidence to be revealed. She explained that it feels good to be given a special treasure from a secret admirer.
Today I LOVED WHAT I READ IN Gods word. I can barely contain myself folks!
I love the SECRET language God uses in His word.

Mark 4::22-25 "For nothing is hidden, except to be revealed; nor has anything been SECRET, but that it would come to light. If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear." 

God never intended for us to feel like we where living in the dark. He wishes to lure us to press forward to know HIM. God loves playing hide and seek. We get to seek out the treasure He has hidden for us! He loves this journey of hooking us with revelation with the purpose of actually reeling us into HIS very heart!

This is RELATIONSHIP not RELIGION!

God has so many secrets and great dreams for us packaged up in pretty silver box. The silver box is a picture of Gods destiny perfectly packaged to become our reality.

In the passage above the Lord is speaking about a secret which is hidden except to those who have a heart and soul to search it out. The scriptural truth gives evidence that things are HIDDEN FOR DIVINE PURPOSE; THE PURPOSE OF BEING REVEALED!

This is very important to grasp. We all have things happening in our life that we might not understand fully. As you journey and GROPE more after God you receive more of the spirits wisdom and revelation.

Part of finding out the SECRET is cultivating the skill of listening. In the passage today Gods word says "If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear" and "Take care of what you listen to." Understand that God has DREAMS for you. Take time to learn and listen to God. Pause and ponder the private places that Gods presence and word seeks to invade your life.

Don't doubt in the darkness what you have seen or heard. God wants you to seek what HE wants to reveal to you in your time of need.

Don't make this complicated friends! Hold out your hand and take hold of HIS.

Move toward knowing Him.

I sit today and ponder how many friends and family will never discover the secrets and treasures that God wants to reveal to them. We experience so much pain that God never had planned, If only we would seek Him out.

It will take an act of our own will to CHOOSE God's plan for POSSESSING our inheritance!

Be a dream catcher today!
