Understanding what God speaks.

LINK

God reveals his truths, especially to those who are deeply committed to obeying him from the heart and prepare their hearts to receive the word.

And we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things freely given to us by God. 13 These things we also speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 But a spiritual man judges all things, yet he is judged by no one. 16 For who has known the mind of the Lord? Who will instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
3 So then, brothers, I could not speak to you as to spiritual people, but as to carnal people, as to babes in Christ. 2 I gave you milk to drink, not food, for you were not yet capable, and you are not yet capable, 3 because you are still carnal. For if there is jealousy, quarreling, and dissensions among you, are you not carnal and do you live like human beings?

1 Corinthians 2:12-3:3

Perhaps at some point in your life you've said or thought the following: "I don't understand what the Bible says." I close the quotation marks. This could be because perhaps we didn't know Christ or were too young. There are cases in which people don't know Christ, they don't understand anything at all, but why do we have such a hard time understanding?

There is a key factor in growth, and the result of this growth and spiritual maturity is obedience to the Word. As we read the Word, it begins to come alive in us. Little by little, we begin not only to hear and understand what God is speaking to us, but we begin to act according to what we have heard and understood. In this way, we learn more and more. God continues to reveal His Word to us through His Holy Spirit.

The close fellowship of the Lord is with those who fear Him,
And He will make His covenant known to them.

Psalm 25:14

The beginning of wisdom is fear. of the Lord;
Good understanding have all who keep his commandments;
His praise endures forever.

Psalm 111:10

As we read more and more of his word, we incorporate it into our lives, applying it in every step, and God continues to reveal it. All of this leads to our spiritual maturity, to our growth. Thus, our mind is transformed through the word, and our entire life takes on color, becoming more and more like Christ's. The word of God is revealed more and more in us.

This also allows our vision to change; little by little, our attention, only our capacity, diminishes. Little by little, we understand that our capacity comes from knowledge and faith in the word of God. Our sinful ways lose power, and little by little we access the treasures of wisdom we find in his word. We begin to live in newness of life.

After each Bible reading we become more dependent on the Holy Spirit and thus develop the commitment to do what God wants and the life of the Holy Spirit, we learn not only to listen to his voice but to put his word into practice with love, the revelation of his word becomes evident.
