You have the decoder ring – The holy spirit, to know the thoughts of God
In I Corinthians 2:9 Paul is quoting Isaiah saying “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.” Then Paul writes “But God has revealed it to us by His Spirit”. You see, until Christ came, what Isaiah said was true, no one could know this manifold hidden wisdom of God, it was like a secret. But then Paul says, but we know. Why? Because Jesus changed the everything. God has revealed it now, by His spirit. Are there secret things of God. Yes! Okay so how do we find out what these secrets are? Paul goes on to say that only God’s spirit knows God’s thoughts, and now that we have access to that Spirit, we can know His thoughts. This is a great gift. God has given us the decoder ring to the hidden mysteries in His word, and it is the spirit. If you want to know what God thinks about something, you can, just ask, and then listen to the Spirit of God. Go ahead, ask Him if he thinks you should give an offering, or ask him if he thinks you should go to church, ask him what He thinks you should do, then do it. Then you win!
