I believe revelation is available to all human beings. However, it isn’t automatic. We can learn how to open up to it. Rev up your capacity to receive revelation.

“When Jesus saw their faith . . .” (Mark 2:5) Jesus can see your level of faith. People can also see your faith or the lack thereof by what you do or don’t do. (James 2;18) Your behavior loudly proclaims what you believe and what you don’t believe. What does your lifestyle say about your level of faith?

If you need greater faith focus on God with your heart, not with your own understanding. Much of Christianity has abandoned the biblical believe that Jesus wants to reveal Himself directly to every human being. (Matthew 23:27-39) Christ’s revelation isn’t just the last book of the Bible. It’s Jesus Christ communicating directly to your heart.

Revelation isn’t study. It is insight given to you directly from God. True divine revelation causes people to see things from God’s perspective and to live a transformed life. (2 Corinthians 5:17) God wants to reveal Himself to you more and more day by day. Will you let Him? (1 Thessalonians 5:19)

Trying to figure God out with your mind will lead you to either pride or confusion. Continually opening your heart to God’s direct revelation will bring you peace that passes understanding (Philippians 4:7) and joy unspeakable and full of glory. (1 Peter 1:8)

A mind informed by information about God cannot compare to a heart set on fire by direct revelation from God. (Matthew 16:17) Spiritual awakening happens when people humbly open up their heart to receive and obey direct revelation from God.

“Lean not on your own understanding.” (Proverbs 3:5) Without direct personal revelation from God to your heart your faith is leaning on and depending on your own understanding of spiritual things.

What eye can’t see, and ear can’t hear, and mind can’t understand, God wants to reveal directly to your heart. (1 Corinthians 2:9-10) Will you humbly open yourself up to His supernatural revelation?
