Now for the heart, and we must understand that all of our
decisions include our invisible minds and hearts. Here are just a couple of
examples.
Exodus
35:21 And they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one
whom his spirit made willing, and they brought the LORD’S offering
to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and
for the holy garments.
Deuteronomy
2:30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not
let us pass by him: for the LORD thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart
obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as appeareth this day.
God the Father is the
soul of God, the seat of will and self-identity, while the Holy Ghost is the
very mind and heart of God moving in creation called the Holy Spirit in action
as the Spirit of God and the Spirit of Christ, and the Son of God is God’s physical
existence, His image, His body. It is through the latter that He connected with
us and it is there, at the Lord Jesus Christ, that we who have bodies commune
with God. Without the physical image of God as our Saviour there is no
connection in our minds and hearts, in our spirits with an invisible,
incorporeal God of the universe. It is through Christ that we reach God and
through Him only.
The very mind of
God has formed the earth and the heavens and we will learn controls all reality
and events. Nothing can happen unless God either causes it directly or permits
it to be done. From the most basic cell function to a wisp of a breeze and from
the evil that men do to the formation of a distant galaxy all things flow from
either His perfect, direct will or His permissive will. Look around you and see
the mind of God at work every day. Pray for His mercy, accept His love, and
give Him the glory.
