Isaiah asked, “Who has understood the mind of the LORD, or instructed him as his counselor?” (Isaiah 40:13 NIV). It seems that the answer is “No One!” Yet the revelation of the NT changed all that. The coming of Christ and His Spirit opened new vistas into the mind of the Lord. So Paul’s response to Isaiah is, “But we have the mind of Christ” 1 Corinthians 2:16. The mind of God has now been made known in a new exciting way. The understanding of the Nature of the Father is now seen in the Son. The teaching Spirit within the body of believers not only bears witness to Him but gives us the “mind of Christ”. Oh, my sisters and brothers, think of the breathtaking resources that have been given to us.
“He who has ears to hear, let him hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches” (Revelation 2 & 3).
