The Spirit is now, and always has been, in the intimate communion through personal revelation business. Whether on a personal level, where He takes truth already written and provides new revelation about its power or meaning, or new vision based in former truth, He desires to lead us into that new thing God is always doing and revealing.
We should delight in our accumulation of knowledge but not be satisfied with it. The kingdom of man and religion heralds and is satisfied with knowledge. We should rejoice in the good works that God leads us to do but not let those be our goal either, for the kingdom of man and religion also reveres good works.
We should go to His throne to “listen, rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools” (Eccl. 5) and seek the sovereign work of God every day in our hearts that is revelation. His spoken word to us will transform us in ways knowledge cannot even approach and will be the way God leads us through His kingdom of peace that endures forever. For, as Tozer said, “It requires a gift of clear seeing to pass sentence on our own day.”
