The Secret Hidden Wisdom

Psalm 51:6 Surely you desire truth in the inner parts; you teach me wisdom in the inmost place.

Those words are addressed by the psalmist David to the Lord Himself.

What is it that God really looks for in our lives?

First and foremost, it is not the external practices of religion – not necessarily churchgoing or other religious acts.
*God looks much deeper than those. (Amos 5:
*God looks right down into the innermost depths of our hearts and our lives.

Elsewhere, the Bible tells us that God does not see as man sees because man looks on the outward appearance, but God looks on the heart.

So David says, “Surely you desire truth in the inner parts.”

What does God want?   What is truth in the inner parts?

God wants to see if we are sincere, open, and transparent in our relationship with Him.

*Do we say the same thing with our mouths that we are thinking in our minds?

If we come to that place, then we can say, like the psalmist, “You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.”

 

There is a secret place in our innermost being where we can begin to hear the voice of God and learn from Him and He teaches us wisdom there.

If you listen and pay attention, you will know that the Lord is showing you ways to improve your circumstances that will ultimately result in a better quality of life.

The Lord is revealing things that need to be changed and can be changed that will be very beneficial to you.

However, this benefit will not come if you do not do what is necessary.

2 Chronicles 7:14  “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Lord I humble myself this day and pray to hear Your voice for Your perfect direction in my life  and giving me wisdom while giving You all the Glory!  Amen
