Supernatural Faith is Stirred

Every time revelation dawns, faith rises because we cannot see a thing and doubt it. When faith is stirred, supernatural victory is guaranteed. We can dare anything when we see the light.

As it is written: Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law (Psalm 119:18).

Until our eyes are open to the revelation of the truth, we cannot believe, and until we believe, we cannot see the manifestation of God’s glory in our lives. Therefore, revelation makes us go beyond hearing God’s Word to seeing our future in it, and then becoming what the Word says.

Men of revelation are men of faith, and every man of faith is more than a conqueror, because he can quench all the fiery darts of the enemy (Ephesians 6:16).

Confidence is Boosted

…but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. Daniel 11:32

Revelation boosts confidence, which is required to take command. Confidence is the conqueror’s backbone and the security of our inheritances in Christ. That is why our confidence is the target of the enemy in battle.

Therefore, it is important to build and sustain our confidence in God and this can only be through adequate revelation.

“Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.” Hebrews 10:35

Unperturbed Peace

“Peace” here means rest. People of revelation are never disturbed, no matter what happens.

“Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.” Psalm 119:165

Knowledge, which equals revelation, is the channel for peace and the deeper the revelation, the calmer we are. A number of times, people have asked me, “Why do you smile at all times?” I tell them that it is because I know what to do!

When we walk in revelation, we find ourselves living continuously in peace. As it is written: Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord (2 Peter 1:2).

Jesus was calm in the midst of the storm because He knew what to do by reason of the revelation He had.

His disciples were apprehensive but He slept, because He knew from the Word that He could never be molested by any circumstance or force of nature.

There is a kind of peace that revelation brings that keeps our hearts and minds focused on Christ Jesus. That is the peace of God that passes all understanding. It is an unexplainable peace that flows like a river; it is peace beyond disturbance, above anxieties and it can be

felt by all.

The Bible enjoins us to labour in order to enter into that rest, for the Word of God is quick and powerful. Therefore, when we labour in the Word by searching tirelessly until we encounter revelation, our faith comes alive and that gives us supernatural rest (Hebrews 4:11-12).

It Enhances the Quality of our Results

The level of revelation we have concerning an issue determines the degree of our dominion. The revelation of the truth, when embraced, produces undeniable proofs. Revelation changes our levels unendingly. Our torments and struggles are traceable to our limited insight. This is because we lack adequate revelation to deal with the issues confronting us.

Talking about the parable of the sower, which yielded different levels of results based on the different levels of understanding; some bore fruits 100 fold, some 60 and some 30. Thus, the more we understand, the better enhanced our blessings and results.

But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. Matthew 13:23

From the above scripture, those who heard the Word had good and honest hearts, but they had varied depth of understanding, which determined their level of productivity. Therefore, our turnaround is a function of our spiritual understanding.

Unending Joy

Anyone flowing in revelation automatically and naturally flows in joy. We cannot flow in revelation and still be tormented by depression. Revelation triggers the joy of the Lord in us.

Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts. Jeremiah 15:16

The Word of God, when revealed, triggers joy unspeakable, full of glory. Therefore, deep revelation triggers addictive joy that we cannot be separated from, and it cannot be tied to anything natural.

Depression puts God off and brings the devil in. So, we must make a choice. We cannot enter into His gates without thanksgiving or into His courts without praise. We cannot be in His presence without fullness of joy.Depression is a design of the devil to separate us from God. It is written: 

Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice (Philippians 4:4)…
