    New Covenant: Richer Than Dreams: No Longer a mystery

    The New Covenant surpasses our wildest dreams and visions we once had, revealing mysteries that were once unknown to us but are now made clear to those who are able to See and Hear. It is an incredible revelation that goes beyond what we could have ever imagined. This Covenant is filled with revolutionary power and boundless grace, offering an abundance of blessings. In this time, the veil of mystery has been lifted, and the New Covenant stands as an invocation for all of us who are called to embrace its truths with Praises and joy.

    The New Covenant was a mystery but is now a revealed truth. The mystery that was once hidden is now open to those who are drawn to integrate into a deeper communion with God.

    Mystery Revealed

    The term “mystery” generally refers to something that is unknown or not understood. Once a mystery is revealed and understood, it no longer fits the definition of a mystery. Therefore, it would be inappropriate to continue referring to it as a mystery if one is truly in possession of the revelation.

    THE DEEP THINGS OF GOD ARE REVEALED TO US BY HIS SPIRIT

    As it is written,
    No eye has Seen, nor Ear Heard,
    not has entered into the heart of man:
    the things which God has prepared.
    for those who Love Him.
    … But God has revealed them to us by His Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

    1 Corinthians 2:9-10

    The secret (טוֹב)of the LORD is.
    with those who fear Him,
    & He will show them His covenant.

    Psalms 25:14

    Unveiling God’s Council

    The concept of God’s Council serves as the profound unveiling of a hidden truth, a revelation intended for individuals who approach Him with reverence and awe. It is crucial to recognize that a secret, by its very nature, is synonymous with a mystery, shrouded in obscurity and concealed from the eyes of the world. However, when such a secret is disclosed or made known, its essence as a covert truth is effectively relinquished, rendering it devoid of its enigmatic quality and no longer considered a mystery. The revelation of God’s Council not only enlightens those who fear Him but also signifies the unveiling of hidden wisdom that was previously unknown.

    The Mystery is Knowable

    YHWH said, “Listen now to My Words. If there is a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself Known to him in a vision, and will speak to him in a dream.

    Numbers 12:6

    But… wait:

    Not so, with My servant Moses,
    He is faithful in all My household;
    With him I speak mouth-to-mouth (
    directly),
    Openly, and not in dark sayings (not shrouded in mystery as it was prior to Christ tearing the veil),
    And he beholds the form of the Lord.
    Why then were you not afraid
    To speak against My servant, against Moses? … So the anger of the Lord burned against them and He departed.

    — Numbers 12:7-9
    Are we not much more than Moses?

    According to Hebrews 3:3, "For this one [Jesus] hath been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honor than the house."

    We are, indeed, much more than Moses.

    Mystery Revealed

    The concept of mystery and revelation is a paradoxical one.

    On one hand, a mystery is something that is unknown and beyond human comprehension.

    On the other hand, revelation is the act of making something known or revealing it to someone.

    If a mystery has been revealed to a person, it is no longer a mystery to them.

    However, if one claims to have been revealed a mystery yet still finds it mysterious, they do not comprehend revelation.

    They fail to comprehend the vision of spiritual disclosure.

    A mystery is something that is not understood by the sole processes of the mind, so it is cloaked in mystery, in disguise. The contrast of that is a Revelation, which is total mind illumination.

    When an individual is illuminated, they are no longer cloaked, and the mystery can no longer be mysterious to them.

    This paradoxical disposition of mystery and revelation highlights the significance of the role of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the one who reveals the deep things of God to us and illuminates our minds.

    Without the Holy Spirit, we would be unable to apprehend the existence of mysteries, let alone given the ability by God to discern the mystery; transmuting the mystery into a completely difdsfrmt form; revelation, disclosure, and exposed .

    The paradox of mystery and revelation in spiritual discourse highlights the importance of the function of the Holy Spirit in illuminating our minds and revealing the dichotomy: revealing the profoundities of God: to us.

    If a mystery has been revealed to us, it is no longer a mystery, and we must seek the guidance and illumination of the Holy Spirit to understand the mysteries of God.

    THE DEEP THINGS OF GOD ARE REVEALED TO US BY HIS SPIRIT

    The things that God has prepared for those who love Him is incomprehensible.
    However, God has chosen to reveal these things to us through His Spirit.
    The Holy Spirit has the ability to search all things, including the deep things of God.
    Through the Spirit’s guidance, we can gain a deeper understanding of the mysteries of God and the blessings He has prepared for us.

    As it is written,
    No eye has Seen, nor Ear Heard,
    not has entered into the heart of man:
    the things which God has prepared
    for those who Love Him.
    … But God has revealed them to us by His Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

    1 Corinthians 2:9-10

    – This verse emphasizes the importance of relying on the Holy Spirit for spiritual discernment and insight.

    The secret (טוֹב)of the LORD is
    with those who fear Him,
    & He will show them His covenant.

    Psalms 25:14

    This transmits David’s conviction that the “secret” or the “advice” of the Lord is available to those who fear him.

    The word “fear” in this context does not mean being afraid of God as we would fear a malevolent enemy, rather its having a deep reverence and respect for Him.

    With deep respect for God, we can reach His wisdom and guidance. Cultivating a profound relationship with God based on faith, reverence and trust is the fork of the road, whereby the ability to apply the knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense, acumen and guidance of The Holy Spirit. A guideline is internally outlined for us, in us, by Him.

    The Counsel of God is the secret for those who fear Him, with fear and amazement.

    The Mystery is Knowable

    YHWH said, “Listen now to My Words. If there is a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself Known to him in a vision, and will speak to him in a dream..
    Numbers 12:6

    He is faithful in all My household;
    With him I speak mouth to mouth (directly),
    Openly, and not in dark sayings (not shrouded in mystery as was prior to Chriat tearing the veil),
    And he beholds the form of the Lord.
    Why then were you not afraid
    To speak against My servant, against Moses?”

    So the anger of the Lord burned against them and He departed.

  • The Importance of Your Eye: Insights from God’s Word

    The Importance of Your Eye: Insights from God’s Word

    The eye is an intriguing organ that serves as the primary channel of visual perception for humans. However, in the Bible, references to the eye go beyond its physicality and delve into deeper spiritual meanings.

    In this blog post, we will explore what God’s Word teaches us about the significance of the eye and how it relates to our spiritual well-being.

    The Eye as the Lamp of the Body

    In both Luke 11:34-36 and Matthew 6:22-23, Jesus refers to the eye as the lamp of the body. This metaphorical usage signifies the role of the eye in providing light and clarity. When our eye is healthy, our entire being is illuminated with light, but if our eye is diseased or corrupted, darkness engulfs us. Here, Jesus emphasizes the importance of maintaining a healthy and focused spiritual vision.

    The Single and Sound Eye

    In the teachings of Jesus, having a single or sound eye is vital. It refers to having clear and undivided vision, not being double-minded or wavering in our commitment. A single eye enables us to discern truth and make righteous choices. By contrast, a diseased or distorted eye represents a compromised spiritual perception, leading to moral darkness and confusion.

    Symbolic and Figurative Meanings

    Throughout the Bible, the eye carries symbolic and figurative meanings. It can represent the heart or mind, being either enlightened or darkened. The eye of the heart is the organ of spiritual perception, through which we gain understanding and insight. It can be opened by God’s Word or the work of the Holy Spirit, or it can be darkened and blinded by sin and unbelief.

    The Eye as an Indicator of Character

    The Scriptures also associate the eye with one’s character and disposition. A “good” or “bountiful” eye reflects a kind and generous nature, while “proud” or “lofty” eyes indicate arrogance and haughtiness. Additionally, the Bible highlights the importance of humility, often symbolized by “lowly eyes.” Rage or anger can be discerned through the sharpening of the eyes, revealing the inner emotions of an individual.

    The Eyes of God

    Just as our eyes reflect our thoughts and intentions, the eyes of God symbolize His omniscience, watchfulness, and loving care. God’s eyes are constantly attentive to the affairs of humanity, and He guides and counsels those who seek Him. The concept of the “apple of the eye” signifies God’s protective and caring nature, assuring His people of His unwavering safeguarding.

    The references to the eye in God’s Word encompass both literal and metaphorical meanings. Beyond the physicality of vision, the eye symbolizes spiritual perception, character, and divine attentiveness.

    Understanding the significance of the eye encourages us to cultivate a healthy and single-minded vision, rooted in God’s truth and righteousness.

    May we strive for spiritual clarity and allow God to illuminate our hearts through the light of His Word.
