THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND REVELATION
OLUBI JOHNSON
Psalm 119:18 AMPC
Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of Your law.
Revelation is knowledge that God shines into your mind from the Holy Spirit through your human spirit (Eph. 1:17-19; 2Cor. 4:6).
The light of revelation knowledge can be likened to a spiritual ‘laser’ beam that gives precise, correct knowledge, like physical laser beams give precise correct measurements.
Physical LASER beams are: L ight A mplified by the S imulated E mission of R adiation.
Spiritual LASER beams are: L ight from the written Word, A mplified by the Holy S pirit through the E mission of R evelation.
Conversely, sense knowledge is knowledge that comes into your mind through your five physical senses. You cannot know God through sense knowledge because God is a spirit and spiritual things are invisible or imperceptible to the physical senses. Therefore, you can only know God through revelation knowledge.
Now, even when you have revelation knowledge you need to have spiritual understanding and wisdom to apply that knowledge profitably so it can bring forth fruit in your life (Col. 1:9-10).
Hence, it is vital for us to get both the spirit of revelation and wisdom by:
1. Cultivating and maintaining an attitude of humility, by submitting to the written Word and spiritual authority (1Pet. 5:5; Prov. 11:2).
2. Receiving prophetic and apostolic teaching and preaching. Prophetic teaching imparts revelation knowledge; apostolic preaching and teaching will further impart the necessary wisdom to apply the revelation revealed.
3. Continuously praying for the spirit of wisdom and revelation as a daily habit to keep and increase in the revelation imparted.
4. Praying regularly with tongues and travail to get the hidden and deep wisdom of God by revelation (1Cor. 14:2; 1Cor. 2:7,10).
5. Fasting regularly as a weekly habit (Isa. 58:6, 8).
If you do and maintain these things, you will begin and continue to increasingly apprehend the spirit of wisdom and revelation that will give you ‘epignosis’—the precise, correct and complete knowledge of God!
