That You Will Know

I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that YOU WILL KNOW what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe...Ephesians 1:18-19

Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Psalm 25:5



Production in the Christian life, as well as peace of mind, is determined by how much we KNOW of God and His plan for us. Each ...of us is capable of learning all God has to teach. It is a matter of submission to the authority of His Word and dependence on the Holy Spirit's guidance. And just look at the glorious package presented in these few verses of Ephesians Ch.1! There is a lifetime's worth of doctrine there, to learn, savor and store for our daily walk. Feelings won't carry you very far, pilgrim. You must orient to the "hope of His calling.""Hope" means expectation. Confidence. Anticipation. We cannot anticipate or share what we do not know about.
