Isaiah 48:6
“You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not admit them? From now on I will tell you of new things, of hidden things unknown to you.”
It happened yesterday and, once more, caught me off guard. Let me explain. I was visiting an Alzheimer Care Center to have prayer with a patient and his wife. After my visit, the wife walked me to the door of the Center. She informed me that I needed the code to leave. She said, “It is right here on the wall beside the door.”
It was then that I remembered in previous visits to other Alzheimer facilities that they use the same procedure. They want to protect the patients from wandering out and becoming lost. So why put the code in such plain sight? Simple―you have to put the code in backwards. For instance, if the numbers are 234, you enter 432. (If you have trouble understanding the code you may qualify as a resident!)
There are things in God’s Word that have been hidden from the world. It is not so much that it requires great intellect, but rather that it requires faith. Faith in God is the key to discovering the wonderful things He has given us in the Bible.
God’s “Code” for the true believer is accepting Him as our Lord and Savior, then staying close to His side by discovering truths from the Bible and communicating with Him in prayer. Oh, the wonderful secrets He shares with His loved ones!
Be blessed dear heart and be a blessing!
