Wisdom and Revelation

Ephesians 1:17-18
". . .that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; . . ."
.
This . . .
In a work environment if you know how to do something, then when that something needs to be done, the responsibility will be given to you because you know how to do it. The more right stuff you know how to do and the more wrong stuff you know not to do, the more you are expected to do the right stuff and not do the wrong stuff.
.
That . . .
Wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God are good things, but when wisdom and revelation come they bring along a heightened level of responsibility. To "not know any better" is a pretty good excuse for falling short. But if you know better, you are wise to do better.
.
This is That . . .
I have been seeking wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God's will concerning divorce and remarriage. As I have sought after God's heart on this subject I believe he has given me some answers and those answers are different from what I have always thought and believed. God's thoughts are higher than mine. As stated above, when revelation comes an appropriate response is required. Sometimes I think I would be better off not knowing or understanding some of the things I know and understand concering the ways and will of God. While it may seem good to keep my head in the sand, it for sure is better to pull it out.
Please pray for me as I pray for you and others, that God would give the gift of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him.
