How to understand the mysteries of God?

“Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.” Matthew 13:11

The Spirit of God greeted me this morning with this verse from the Book of Matthew concerning the response from Jesus as to why He speaks in parables.

Jesus explains He speaks in parables because the people cannot see, hear, or understand the simple truths of God. So Jesus frames the truths in a fictional parable to help them understand His words.

Jesus also states that whoever has the gospel living in his heart will be given more and he will have an abundance. Conversely, he who does not have the gospel in his heart, what he has will be taken away.

Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. You have to hear and accept the Word of God by faith.

Jesus said unbelievers are blinded to the Spirit of God and cannot receive or understand Him but those who are believers know God because He dwells with them and lives in them.

The Holy Spirit is the only way you can understand God because He takes what belongs to Jesus and shares it with you.

You will find God when you abandon yourself to Him and invite the Holy Spirit to have authority in every aspect of your life.

Walking with Jesus is to live with Him by faith. The concept of doing works, practicing religion, and focusing on sanctification will sidetrack you from the heart of God.

Get to know Jesus for who He is and abide with Him through the Spirit of God. He will astonish you with His greatness and glory. There is no one like Him!
