Revelation

Glory
“Oh, the depth of the riches of the knowledge and wisdom of God!
How unsearchable His judgments, His paths are beyond tracing out!
Who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been His counselor?
Who has ever given to God, that God should repay him?
For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things,
To Him be the glory forever! Amen.”
Romans 11:33-36


Repeat these verses, known as the Doxology, as couple times and think on them.
Do you feel some insight, a window that is cracked open into God’s glory?
As Paul penned the last of Romans 11:32…”so that He may have mercy of them all…”
I believe he was overtaken with yet another revelation from and about God, causing him to pen the next and last four verses.
I had read Romans 11 many times, but recently I took up the challenge extended by the leaders of Caleb Company (calebcompany.org) to memorize the entire the 36 verses.
As I memorized these verses that they were becoming embedded into the fabric of my identity.
I could feel a taste of what Paul felt.
What glory, what magnificence!
The depths of His riches of wisdom and knowledge are limitless;
We can’t even begin to know all that He is, beloved, but as we seek Him with all our hearts
He is faithful to give us a glimpse of His majesty.
