Remembrance

John 14:26 English Standard Version (ESV) But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

I can only tell you how the Holy Spirit opened my ears and eyes. He will you teach how to open your spiritual ears and eyes. Your experience may not be exactly like mine but I can only speak of my own experiences.

Romans 10:17 English Standard Version (ESV) So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.

First read the bible regularly. Remembrance cannot occur without being at least familiar with the subject matter. The more familiar we are with any subject, the easier it is to make it available for memory recall.

Second be humble. Nothing blocks learning faster than being a “know it all.”

Thirdly have a right heart attitude. Be sincere.

2 Peter 3:1b English Standard Version (ESV) I am stirring up your sincere mind by way of reminder,

Those first lessons from the Holy Spirit in hearing with spiritual ears came from His stirring up my pure mind by way of remembering other passages as I read my bible. Pure in this sense is not holy but rather not distracted by the concerns of life. The troubled mind only seeks solutions and not instruction. These learning years need to be open to listening.

Isaiah 28:10 English Standard Version (ESV) For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.”

The fourth element is to be patient. Little by little, absorb and digest what you are shown. Do not over indulge.

2 Corinthians 2:14 King James Version (KJV) Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.

Savor every bite and let it be known how good it tastes.
