I Want to Be Good At “Revelationship”

Daily writing promptWhat are you good at?View all responses

I strive to be good at what I call revelationship. It’s the ability to humbly receive the insight, ideas, and wisdom directly from God.

We know Christ lives within us “by the Spirit He gave us,” (1 John 3:24) — by supernatural revelation as “The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.” (Romans 8:16)

As we allow ourselves to be led by the Spirit (Romans 8:16) we will develop an ongoing heart-to-heart “revelationship” with the risen Jesus. Pray for revelation beyond your own understanding. (Proverbs 3:5) Then surrender your heart to God and humbly receive supernatural insight and the ongoing glory of His presence.

Revelationship makes you perceptive to God’s eternal perspective. God’s revelation is best received with an open, honest, and humble childlike heart. Otherwise, it’s easily overlooked. Religion can easily distract people from and quench God’s supernatural revelation. (1 Thessalonians 5:19) Christians and churches should continually expect and receive supernatural revelation, not fear it or avoid it. (Matthew 16:17)

Revelationship sails beyond human understanding. It cruises with the wind of God’s Spirit. It makes the words of the Bible burn in your heart. (Luke 24:32) Do you have an ongoing revelationship with Christ?

Human understanding tries to knuckle down and figure God out. Faith opens up and welcomes God to come in and take control with Divine revelation. (1 Corinthians 2:9-10) Christ builds on the Rock of supernatural revelationship, not on the sand of human understanding.

The more you try to figure God out, the less you will let Him come in and take control of your life. The more you analyze, categorize, and box God up, the less you will be open to a revelationship with Him.

Vanity is self-focused insanity that torments humanity. God’s revelation cuts through it and drives it away.

God wants you to have a direct personal revelationship with Him so that He can reveal great and mighty things to you that you don’t know. (1 Corinthians 2:9-10 & Jeremiah 33:3) Will you let Him lead you beyond the fog of religious analysis into the Light of His presence?
