 Evening Reflections - JUNE 15

The secret things belong to the LORD our God; but those which are revealed belong unto us.--Duet. 29:29

The "secret things" here were the things which God had not revealed regarding Israel's future. These belonged to the Lord. They were not to pry into them, as they were prone to do, with eager curiousity. The Lord had given them to know enough on which to occupy their thoughts and exercise their faith. He had revealed sufficient for their walk of obedience. The truth to be drawn from the passage is, that the Bible is primarily a book for practical guidance, not for the solution of speculative difficulties or the gratification of a vain curiousity.

But many truths that were mysteries then, when these words were written, are now revealed. They are no longer hidden, but made known. We live in days of full Gospel light. And this light is given us for action; for the work of faith, and not for curious speculations. The secret of getting more light lies in obedience to the measure of the light we already have. Let us "walk while we have the light." That word "walk" points to practical obedience.
