I was reading about how to find a treasure or get clues in your treasure map to do ultimate treasure hunt. The author said about the "word of knowledge or message of knowledge" that can only be obtained by the power of the Holy Spirit." Then these lines really captured me, "Most people know what is wrong with them, what they don't know is what is right about them." They have destiny with Christ and God's plan is always to prosper them and give hope right? That is God's promise in Jeremiah 29:11. It is all there. It has been there many years ago but most of the people don't know that promise. Then I got to the thinking, some people I have encountered before, they felt this emptiness and longing and unexplanable sadness and some are blinded by the wealth and lust and success of this world. There are those times that the Holy Spirit will prompt me to say something that they might be feeling that moment and it really turns the table. But there were those times that some people suddenly ask you just to have a debate over religion and I totally need to wait for the Holy Spirit to intercede and give me a word of knowledge and our conversation will eventually ends with silence. It is true that most people knew what is wrong with them and got sucked up by that idea that everything about them is a mess and completely wrong and unchangeable. Some people will only be aware of the truth if somebody will dare to open their eyes and let them see the truth. Which ever the scenario is somebody needs to do something. When Jesus waited for the Samaritan woman in the well He did both to her. Definitely the woman knew what is wrong with her, even being a samaritan is considered wrong about her that time. What Jesus did is letting the woman know that He knew what is wrong about her and how to make it right. For the woman to believe that He is the messiah that is all knowing He begun saying about the wrong doing that the woman is commiting but Jesus did it with such grace. He let her know that there is hope. Jesus told the hard truth so she can be free from the lies and eventually Jesus offered the cure and eternal offering. Jesus intentionally waited there for that woman so He can help her and save her by revealing what is wrong with her without exposing her to the people and condemning her so Jesus can also tell her what is the right thing to do. Jesus corrected and protected her by the truth, by grace and by love. My question now is, Are you a follower of Christ? If you are, will you also hunt, seek, look and wait for those precious treasures that awaits you? Will you correct your friends and loved ones with the truth? Will you help the blind to see? Or Are you in those class of people? Are you blinded? Are you not aware of what is wrong with you? Or what is missing in your life? Or you don't know the promise of God? You don't know or not sure if God loves you. Well, He do. He really do my friend! He died for you. He wants to save us all😊 |
