Humbling Praying For the Illumination of the Spirit

by J. C. Ryle

The corruption of human nature is a universal disease. It affects not only a man’s heart, will, and conscience, but his mind, memory, and understanding. The very same person who is quick and clever in worldly things, will often utterly fail to comprehend the simplest truths of Christianity.

He will often be unable to grasp the plainest reasonings of the Gospel. He will see no meaning in the clearest statements of evangelical doctrine. They will sound to him either foolish or mysterious. He will listen to them like one listening to a foreign language, catching a word here and there, but not seeing the drift of the whole. “The world by wisdom knows not God” (1 Cor. 1:21). It hears, but does not understand.

We must pray daily for the teaching of the Holy Spirit, if we would make progress in the knowledge of divine things. Without Him, the mightiest intellect and the strongest reasoning powers will carry us but a little way. In reading the Bible and hearing sermons, everything depends on the spirit in which we read and hear. A humble, teachable, child-like frame of mind is the grand secret of success. Happy is he who often says with David, “Teach me Your statutes” (Psalm 119:64). Such an one will understand as well as hear.

Uncomprehensible -God's Love for Mankind

Uncomprehensible -God’s Love for Mankind

Psalm 144:3-4 3 O LORD, what is man, that You take knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that You think of him? 4 Man is like a mere breath; His days are like a passing shadow.

Not that I am not thankful for it, but why does a holy and perfect God, love rebellious sinners?  Why does God pursue an individual, personal love relationship with each person that lives, knowing we will fail and rebel…

Uncomprehensible - God Became a Man

Uncomprehensible – God Became a Man

Philippians 2:6-7 6 who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.

Jesus is fully God.  He has always been fully God.  As God, He has existed at all times.  Jesus did not come into existence at His birth, instead He was always been alive.  What…

Uncomprehensible - Redemption

Uncomprehensible – Redemption

John 1:1-3 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. 2 Corinthians 8:9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sake He became poor, so that you through His poverty…

Uncomprehensible - Time

Uncomprehensible – Time

John 1:1-2 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 2 Peter 3:8 But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.

Have you thought about eternity?  How there is no end there.  Our minds tend to struggle with that.  We,…

Uncomprehensible - Omnipresent

Uncomprehensible – Omnipresent

Psalm 139:7-8 7 Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? 8 If I ascend to heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are there.

God is omnipresent, meaning He is present everywhere, at all times.  There is no place in the whole universe you can go where God is not.  When man landed on the moon, God was there.  When man explores the deepest…
