This morning at kopitiam the my Lord the Holy Spirit taught me.
The OT are full of types. As we meditate on them the Holy Spirit minister to us spiritual lessons.
This morning was my first lesson.
Genesis 22 teaches (Sadhu Selveraj says the bible has progressive depths) me how to receive blessing from God. All our blessings are from one source. God has promised Abraham that his seed (of faith) will be blessed. So i asked for my blessing as Jesus teach me that if i do not ask i shall not receive.
2 chapters down i saw a lesson on hearing from God and being reverent toward God. Both the Holy Spirit and Lord Jesus was rwverent to The Father though they are One. And i saw why when we sin against the Holy Spirit it will not be forgiven us. As you meditate on this chapter you shall catch the reason. How wonderful the meekness of the Holy Spirit of God. I saw how the Holy Spirit interact with God and how He went about doing God's work and how God grants Him success. So much to be caught!!
Oh!! then it occured to me. These 2 chapters show me types - image lessons - where i may learn how to 'hear' from God and grow unto the likeness of Christ. And as i meditate on the scenarios the NT teachings comes in to affirm me. Many Christians teach about hearing from God but i still don't get it. But here i feel there is something wherewithal the Holy Spirit Himself wants to teach - me - not in a general way but to me in all my idiosyncracies, how i can hear God!
How wonderful is the WORD of God. Truly, this is the Bread and the Drink. Praise the Lord!
