I Who are the people that God will hide His secrets from?

A. SLOTHFUL Jeremiah 29: 13, And ye shall seek me,

and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

Proverbs 25:2 , It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.

I Who are the people that God will hide

His secrets from?B. FOOLISH A foolish person is one who will hear the truth and

yet that truth never becomes a part of his life. The Pharisees of Jesus day was most like this. A fool is a one who does not hear truth properly. He uses truth for his own selfish gain. Matthew 7: 6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs,

neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

Proverbs 1:7 7 Fear of the LORD is the foundation of true knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.

I Who are the people that God will hide His secrets from?

C. UNREGENERATED OR UNSAVED I Corinthians 2: 14 14But the natural man receiveth not the

things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

John 3: 3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily,

verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

II Who does God reveal His secrets to?

To His friends. JGreater love hath no man than this, that

a man lay down his life for his friends.  14Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.  15Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. John 15: 13-15

II Who does God reveal His secrets to?

A. Daniel. Daniel 2:27-30 27Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The

secret which the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, shew unto the king; 28But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these;  29As for thee, O king, thy thoughts came into thy mind upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth secrets maketh known to thee what shall come to pass.  30But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than any living, but for their sakes that shall make known the interpretation to the king, and that thou mightest know the thoughts of thy heart.

II Who does God reveal His secrets to?

B. Abraham Gen. 18: 16-19 16And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward

Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.  17And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;  18Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?

19For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.

II Who does God reveal His secrets to?

C. Peter Acts 10: 9-17 9On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and

drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:  10And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,  11And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending upon him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:  12Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.  13And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.  14But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.  15And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.  16This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.  17Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate,

III What are the Ways that God Reveals His Secret?

A. All Types of Prayer Ephesians 6: 18-19 18Praying always with all

prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;  19And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

III What are the Ways that God Reveals His Secret?Types of Prayers, 1. “Praying in tongues “

I Corinthian 14: 14-15 For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.

Romans 8: 26-27 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

III What are the Ways that God Reveals His Secret?

Types of Prayers, 2. “Speaking Mysteries “ I Corinthian 14: 2 2For he that speaketh in an

unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.

Psalms 42:7-8 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.  8Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life.

III What are the Ways that God Reveals His Secret?

B. By His Spirit I Corinthian 2: 1-16,

1And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.  2For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.  4And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:  5That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.  6Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:  7But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:  8Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

III What are the Ways that God Reveals His Secret?

 continued: I Corinthian 2: 1-16 9But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear

heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.  10But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.  11For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.  12Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.  13Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

III What are the Ways that God Reveals His Secret?

Continued: I Corinthian 2: 1-16 14But the natural man receiveth not the

things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.  15But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.  16For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ.

IV What are the other benefits of Praying in the Spirit?

A. The Spirit Man is Refreshed, and Brought to Rest

Isaiah 28: 11-12, 11For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.

12To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.

  B. The Spirit Man is Built Up Jude 1: 20 , But ye, beloved, building up

yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
