Reflection on Divine Secrets
As we ponder these verses, we are reminded of the special relationship God shares with His children.
In thinking about divine secrets, it’s only natural to wonder what these secrets are and how we can access them. Our anchor verse of the day gives us a glimpse into this mystery.
It reminds us that God’s wisdom is not hidden from us but reserved for those who fear and revere Him.
Beloved, fearing God does not mean living in constant fear of Him; it means having a deep respect and awe for His majesty and sovereignty. It’s an acknowledgment that God’s ways are higher than our ways, and His understanding far surpasses our own.
Simply put, divine secrets are privileges we receive when we approach God with reverence and humility.
In Proverbs 9:10, we read:
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
This reverence opens the door to divine secrets.
I want you to consider this:
When we approach God with humility and an open heart, seeking His guidance in prayer and through His Word, we position ourselves to receive these divine insights. God longs to share His wisdom with us, to guide us through the complexities of life, and to reveal His covenant – the promise of His unwavering presence and protection.
Proverbs 3:5-6 encourages us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and lean not on our understanding.
By acknowledging Him in all our ways, He will direct our paths. This is a beautiful expression of how God shares His secrets with those who trust in Him completely.
The divine secret mentioned in the passage is God’s covenant. We see a parallel message in Jeremiah 33:3:
Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.
Today, God invites us to seek Him, to call upon His name, and He promises to reveal great and mighty things beyond our understanding.
