Those Moments of Magnificent Knowledge

There are times in our spiritual journey when questions so long burning in our heart about God are answered in a twinkle of an eye. With brilliance and magnificence one realizes it can only be from God. It’s a treasured moment, an epiphany of such clarity you are you simply amazed by God’s timing, His goodness, wisdom and love.   


My heart is confident in you, O God; no wonder I can sing your praises with all my heart! Wake up, lyre and harp! I will wake the dawn with my song. I will thank you LORD, among all the people. I will sing your praises among the nations. For your unfailing love is higher than the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens. May our glory sine over all the earth.” Psalm 108 1-5

Watch for it—wait for it—those moments of magnificent knowledge of God’s character. Oh the joy of such a great and unexpected discovery! The instant when Love comes down and comforts and clarity brings strength and one’s heart is filled with eternal hope.

It can be in the midst of a busy day or the other side of sleep just before we awaken. It can be when reading God’s Word, or a song, a time alone with Him. God is able to surprise us at any moment with the beauty of who He is. He alone can heal a broken heart; bring streams in the desert and flowers of hope to bloom all over again in our heart.

“….I learned at last that Christ was the “express image” of God, and where I became therefore in measure acquainted with Him, and discovered to my amazement and delight His utter unselfishness, and saw it was safe to trust in Him. And from this time all my doubts and questioning have been slowly disappearing in the blaze of this magnificent knowledge.” Quoted from: Hannah Whitall Smith The Unselfishness of God
