Ephesians 3: 10
… in order that the manifold wisdom of God might now be make known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places.
In the verses which precede today’s verse, Paul wrote that the mystery of God was not known in earlier generations but now is made known through Christ. God is not hiding his wisdom. Part of his plan in sending Jesus into the earth was that He would be able to reveal all of himself to us. We saw last week that Isaiah foretold this. All of the wisdom of the universe is now available to the children of God through Jesus.
So, what is your challenge today? Is it a big problem or something small that needs resolving? You see, you have only to ask the Father for the wisdom in dealing with it because He has now made all knowledge and wisdom available in the earth. The other thing you may need to do, though, is to learn how to hear him. Many of us are not adept at listening to and recognizing the voice of God.
Most often His answers come as a still, small voice in your head. Often, I just “get an idea.” Once I used to take credit for those ideas that just came to me from nowhere but now that I have learned to recognize the voice of the Lord. It comes with practice. Once you begin to recognize his voice, you will find it will come more and more easily.
This is part of the Holy Spirit’s job, to teach and guide us. So, avail yourself of this benefit of being a child of God. He has released His wisdom into the earth and if we will learn to ask and learn to listen, we can have it all. Don’t feel that you are alone with your problems, even the little ones. Learn to ask for His help. He has gone to great lengths to bring that help to you.
