I find it quite interesting that Paul would know or presume to know the intent of God. Intent is a very difficult thing to perceive. So Paul with reliance on the Holy Spirit for inspiration has been given revelation of this truth. The unveiling of the mystery of God held quietly through the ages up until his writing of this epistle from that dark and dank Mamartine prison cell in Rome. There is much to be said about isolation and reflection in the quiet place where the still small voice of God may become amplified. Our modern existence is a difficult and continuous bombardment of input from every corner of our lives. To be one like Paul or Jesus who only spoke the words the Father has given should be the goal of every Christian.
APPLICATION
To be intentional in getting away to a quiet place today to reflect and listen to the voice of the Lord.
Welcome
One of the most effective ways to allow the Word of God to affect your life is to study it inductively. That is what this blog is all about. Typically one verse per day will be mined for insight and then followed up with how I plan to implement that insight practically. My prayer is that in some way you find this useful in your journey and that it may impact you positively. -G
