God reveals a lot of things through His Word. All we need is to read and pray for understanding. Yet, God speaks to people today in a unique way.
God reveals idea to our thought. Whenever you exclaimed, “oh and I was thinking about that.”–it is God who is probably trying to tell you an idea but our finite mind is trying to grasp it.
Of what use is it to tell a toddler what is only useful for a teenager? If God perceives a message or idea or findings will be too much for our finite mind, He is most likely to hide it from us.
He would rather protect us than hurt us with what He is giving us.
Therefore, if an idea is of no benefit to us, He will never make it known to us. Remember God told Daniel that he should write the message down because it is for an appointed time.
An idea or a message will not come before the appropriate time. This calls for patience when dealing with God. And don’t forget, everything in life takes time. It takes time for God to reveal things to us also because of our limited nature and we live in a limited world.
