We are living in a time when knowledge is at our finger tips, literally! Using our favourite search engine we can type in any subject and presto, a wealth of information is available.

But another resource is the Holy Spirit, also known as the Spirit of truth. We will find a reservoir of knowledge available; it is simply a matter of tapping into God’s infinite mind.
But consider for a moment, the Hume Dam, situated on the NSW-Victorian border. it is one of the largest dams in the world and has a capacity about 6 times the volume of Sydney Harbour when full. I recall visit to look at the spillway and gazing at the torrents of water gushing out of the irrigation valves, to cascade into the mighty Murray River.
Our faith has the unique ability to turn on the valve which will release the flow of God’s wisdom into our lives.

Mankind has accumulated so much knowledge in the various fields of science and continues apace! No doubt God has helped our scientists in the pursuit of such vast knowledge.
It was King Solomon that asked God for wisdom to govern wisely over his kingdom. He did not ask for riches or fame and as a result God honoured his request by giving him great insight and incredible understanding about life and the world in which he lived. Nothing has changed, God is still in the business of giving wisdom to those who ask.

One of the remarkable things about Jesus of Nazareth was His depth of understanding and ability to KNOW! He had the mind of God, He was in fact God; and He was full of the Holy Spirit without limitation. Now we, who are IN CHRIST, have the mind of Christ. We too, can know the mysteries of God. It is not something for the future but a present experience available to us by the Holy Spirit.

We must however, accept the truth that all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Christ. Jesus said that the Holy Spirit would reveal and teach us, “… the Spirit will take from what is mine and make it known to you.” John 16:15 NIV.
