“This, then, is how you ought to regard us: as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the mysteries God has revealed. Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful.  I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed…Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God” (1Cor 4:1-5)

The wisdom of God is unsearchable and His peace beyond understanding. God cannot be totally understood. That is why He is God. The only revelation of God Jehovah available to men is in the person of Jesus Christ, our Lord. The impartation of this revelation comes only thru the Holy Spirit. No other man or spirit can reveal the truth of God to others.

A mystery is a secret thing that cannot be understood just by human reasoning and cannot be fully explained. A mystery needs the revelation of God to become useful to men. The secret things belong to God and only that which is revealed (by Him) become ‘the property’ of men to whom it has come. Then they can truly obey the Word of God. This blessed revelation is the divine royal stamp and a family inheritance. The children of the faithful servants of God are blessed together with their parents (Deut 29:29; PV 25:2).

All children of God ‘know God’. This knowledge is eternal life. The anointing of the Holy Spirit teaches them all things. But the Apostles and the Prophets are special servants chosen by God as a gift to the Body. We are to consider them as servants of God entrusted by Him with a wonderful treasure called ‘the mysteries of Christ’. The Holy Spirit opens their understanding more than to others. They see the truth below the surface, the deep things that are hidden in the Word of God.

God’s glory is connected with this mystery, so that He cannot be fully understood or controlled by His creation. It is God’s decree that some men will have a greater spiritual understating of His Person and Purpose. It is the highest privilege to be called by God to share in His deep secrets.  These men cannot call themselves to such a holy office. They have to be called by God Himself. The rest of us we are to acknowledge their anointing and honor God’s sovereign choice.

The basic requirement for these men is to remain faithful to the God who has entrusted them with the mysteries of His Kingdom. No matter what they know, they are to keep silent until God opens their mouth to speak. Also, no matter the consequences, they are to speak the truth in love when commanded to do so.  They are not to betray the King by privately revealing His secrets to ‘personal friends’ interested in religious gossip. That will grieve the Holy Spirit and ‘dry’ the flow of the anointing.

Be totally faithful to God who called you to be His servant!

Do not be quick in drawing conclusions when it comes to the secrets of God! Wait for the Holy Spirit!

He that called you to be His servant must bring to light the revelation of the secret things!

God who gave you the secret has to approve the hour of public revelation to men!

Do not use human understanding in preaching Christ Crucified!

Do not be impatient in the ministry of prophetic counseling!

If in doubt, do not move, do not talk!

Sooner or later, the green light of faith shall come with power, the approval and the pleasure of God! Then your speech shall become utterance from above, the hammer that breaks the rocks and the fire than burns which no man can resist!

All to the glory of God!

In Christ I declare:

I am a child of God!

I am a servant of Christ!

I am a member of the royal priesthood of believers!

I am faithful to God who called me to be His servant!

Help me, God!

In Jesus name,

Amen!
