The Cost of Insight

Although it can’t be purchased, insight is a very costly item. It requires that you see things that you don’t want to see and comprehend things that you don’t want to understand. It requires setting aside your own opinions, feelings, and desires and replacing them with the reality of what is really going own in your life and surroundings.

Look beyond the crowd. See things that the majority is unwilling to see. Be careful not to side with those who don’t see the unseen.

Let God reveal to you by His Spirit what no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, the things He has prepared for those who love Him (1 Corinthians 2:9-10). Let the One who shined out of darkness shine in your heart (2 Corinthians 4:6) so that you can see Him who is invisible (Hebrews 11:27) and look not at the things that are seen but at the things that are unseen (2 Corinthians 4:18) by looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith (Hebrews 12:2) and beholding the Lamb of God (John 1:29).

Humbly reading the Bible with an open, hungry heart will help you see the unseen wisdom and invisible will of God in your daily life. It’s called revelation. It occurs when you let the words begin to burn in your heart. “O taste and see that the Lord is good.”

Don’t just read and study the Bible. Revel and rejoice in it with rigorous revelation!

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!

    I’ve found daily scripture readings gives me much insights to the working of the Holy Spirit. Adding times of prayers helps with insights to his will and not mine.
