Mysteries and not History

Hi everyone,

I'm a person who loves cartoons a lot, well... logical ones anyways. Why am I saying this? I watched a cartoon some time ago and an elderly man gave a saying, "yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift that is why it is called present". When I saw this, I marveled and was inspired by GOD through this quote which I would share with you.

There are things that limit how Man makes his decisions. Why am I saying this? When Man concludes on a thing, he uses the theory of the past to decide what would happen in the present. An example of this is water. Now, because two molecules of hydrogen and one molecule of oxygen gave water last year, last month, last week, yesterday, one could then conclude that the result of two molecules of hydrogen and one molecule of water will be water today.

In everything in life, Man bases his theories on what has happened earlier (the laws of thermodynamics, the law of gravity, etc). For me, this has been the reason for the failures of Man, because Man has based his theories on history [sounds weird right?]. They can't determine the future. The strategy used is wrong. They can't understand GOD that way, because GOD doesn't use history, instead, HE uses mystery. Take a look at all the miracles in the Bible from Genesis one to the parting of the red sea, the destruction of the wall of Jericho, the feeding of the five thousand, the raising of Lazarus, Jesus walking on water, etc. All these denied the theories created by man, therefore denying the use of historical theorems.

When you walk with GOD always expect the unexpected. But now as Sons and Daughters of GOD, we are supposed to know and understand these mysteries because the Bible says the things that have been a mystery to man have been revealed to us through the Holy Spirit (ref.: 1 Corinthians 2:10), and He lives in us. The things of GOD are full of mysteries, but we have CHRIST in us and also have HIS mind which is why we perform mysterious things when doing things.

In line with languages, speaking in tongues is referred to as speaking mysteries according to 1 Corinthians 14:2, because when we pray to GOD, we could be weak when we pray based our five senses. This is why Romans 8:26 says "likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God". Tongues are mysteries, which we cannot comprehend using our five senses. And as we speak in tongues we are building up our most holy faith, (ref.: Jude 1:20), thereby acting as CHRIST.

In conclusion, with the proper understanding of this, we now know why faith is very important in the life of a child of God, which is "the substance of things hoped for, the evidence not seen" (ref.: Hebrews 11:1). The substance hoped for is a mystery, in other words, we are to bring things to pass from mystery. We are meant to be unique and easily identified because we are to live by faith and not by sight, thus depending on the historical theories of man before we do anything. Man uses history to determine the present but Sons and Daughters of GOD through the Holy Spirit use mysteries to determine the present.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.

                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
