Desensitization and the need for divine Revelation
2015 Nov 15th Streaming
Greeting Beloved!
We have a great need for divine revelation in the body of Christ today. As a matter of fact everyone living in the world today needs a divine revelation of Christ to get free of fear! We are going to talk about this matter today.
Desensitization to the person of Christ is rampant throughout humankind! As we have shared with you before its effect is similar to carbon monoxide gas. You cannot see it, feel it, smell it, taste it or touch it. We involuntarily respond to its presence. Without the use of a carbon monoxide detector we would be overcome with its lethal effects and die. Spiritually God has provided us a detector for the process of desensitization to the person of Christ. Our detector for this enemy is divine revelation by God, the Holy Spirit. He is our teacher, revealer of all things that pertain to the person of Christ. What is revelation? And where does it come from?
Revelation is simply revealed knowledge. If there is something you and I do not know, or do not understand, we lack revelation. The Greek definition means;
- laying bare, making naked
- a disclosure of truth, instruction
- concerning things before unknown
- used of events by which things or states or persons hitherto withdrawn from view are made visible to all
- manifestation, appearance
The word revelation is used 18 times in the Bible. Thirteen of those time were used in Paul’s epistles. Let’s look at a few of these verses.
It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord. 2Co 12:1
Now to him that is of power to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, Rom 16:25
For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught [it], but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. Gal 1:12
And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain. Gal 2:2
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: Eph 1:17 KJV] 17
How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, Eph 3:3
Well let’s talk about it…..
Love in Christ
