Unknown secrets and known secrets

Getting to Know Oneself

 But there is nothing covered up that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known. Luke 12:2

What would be covered up that one would not put under a candle? Why would anyone hide anything, for what purpose could that be?

In the Old Testament, God forgave David when he sinned grievously, because David was honest with God. Looks like I will be pondering this verse a lot longer.

Speaking into existence

 "So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it." Isaiah 55:11

This was said by God, told to Isaiah the prophet. God placed it there in Isaiah's heart. The tree is known by is fruit. And it was said by Jesus. And it was said to us. What we say we will get, or perhaps got already. 

Jesus said we would be accountable 

for every idle word we speak.

Indeed, we are accountable for every word. We speak the Word in faith. We project what is in our hearts. From out of the heart the mouth speaks. We are getting what we say. We may speak about another person but we are revealing more about ourselves than many are aware. We are speaking into existence the same way God speaks into Existence. The spirit, like the tree, is known by its fruit.

It is said we gain faith by reading the Word. When we speak, we speak into existence, for ourselves, even while it may be about someone else. This is my view. I gained it by reading. Some by  listening. Some by watching. Some by example. Some by epiphany, 

No future in the flesh

 Jesus talking in John 21:22

It is the Spirit which gives life. The flesh will not help you. The things which I have told you are spiritual and are life. But some of you will not believe me. - For Jesus knew from the beginning which of his followers did not trust him and who was the man who would betray him. Then he added, "This is why I said to you, 'No one can come to me unless my Father puts it into his heart to come.'"

 "I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to the Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it." John 14:12-14 

Nothing can be covered

Everything shall be known 

For nothing is hidden that shall not become evident, nor anything secret that shall not be known and come to light. Luke 8:16

worshipping our benefactor

 When Jesus tells us what God wants us to do, whatever it is, I want to do it because whatever God wants us to do is always for our own benefit. My reason is that if one values their own personal existence, as I do, then I listen up because I believe God Himself is the fountainhead of existence. Always, I want to be where Jesus is.
