Deuteronomy 29:4 Yet the Lord hath not given you an heart to perceive, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, unto this day.

Matthew 13:17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

Things change, God does a new thing in the New Testament. We have changed, evolved, if you will allow me to use that word in this way. This week we will discuss how man has evolved and to what end.

Ever play Pictionary? You are given a word and you draw clues for that word. Sometimes you can draw a picture everyone can understand. Sometimes you don’t. This week I am going to do just the opposite. I will use words to try and describe what the Lord has shown me.

I see things in the scriptures that I can relate to in my life. The technical term would be to appropriate, to take to myself. How you relate to scriptures or appropriate will be determined by you spiritual eyes and ears. What God shows you should relate to your experience, your need. Those will be different from mine. So if you do not see what I see, do not get frustrated.

We grow in the Lord. What we do not see today, we may see tomorrow. What we hear today may not take on meaning until later. If it doesn’t, that is OK too. What is important is that you are looking and listening for the Lord, not me. If my words can paint a picture for you, praise the Lord.

Ready? Come back tomorrow and let’s get evolved.
