Part 9: What manner of man are you?

(This is part 9 of 10 parts in this class)

 

You will only have light to see your inner man as you present yourself - in the presence of the Holy Spirit - before God and His Word. You will only see yourself as God's new creation child in His light. You will only see God as He really is when you get into His light.

 

The psalmist David declared,

In Your light we see light.

Psalm 36:9 - NKJV

 

John the Beloved exhorted,

If we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another.

1 John 1:7 - NKJV

 

Bible study or scripture meditation time should be a time of illuminating your inner man with the light of God's Word. It is a time to see what manner of man you are. The Bible tells you you will see what manner of man you really are in the light of God's Word. (See James 1:22-25.)

David prayed in Psalm 119,

The entrance of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.

Psalm 119:130 - NKJV

 

Your inner man is hidden from your view until you bathe in the light of God's Word. It is only by that light that you can plainly see who you are in Christ. Who are you? You are the Father's new creation child created after God in righteousness and true holiness. Ephesians 4:24.

Thank God for your good conscience. The divine nature and features of your hidden man - your child of God characteristics - are clearly seen by the light of God's Word as it streams through your good conscience!
