Eternity In The Hearts Of Men Series

Ecc 3:11. He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end

As a young man, I realized there was an understanding of the word of God in my Spirit, I knew things that no man ever taught me or read anywhere. Even when I could listen to a preacher, there was something in me that could either bear witness with the word of the preacher or help me to screen his/her words.

I could remember very well, having not sat under anyone to get the things I knew and neither reading them in any book. It could come to pass that even when I hear something for the first time, I realized I had an understanding about it. It could be like someone is adding light to what I know already.

By then I wasn’t even close to the Bible. I tried to find out from the elders, in some doctrines we aligned while in others we didn’t. Then I said to myself, “If these be of God, surely, they must be in this book.” It came to pass, when I became close to the Bible that I realized actually they were written in the Bible

Then I began to understand, that it is the working of God to write the secrets of Eternity in the hearts of Men. That a mystery can be hidden from the earth till the manifestation of the man in whose heart it was written. I realized that these things were not plain to me because I over labored for them but according to His own purpose. Because I remember not a time that I prayed to know thus.

How a created being can explain the things before creation outstands because the man is speaking not something he heard from another person but explaining out of the abundance of his heart. The truth he is speaking is actually part of Him. That’s why men like Moses, could frankly write and say, “In the beginning, (Gen 1:1)” as though they were physically beholding the creation process. I began to understand that these were actually written in his Spirit before time, and he is able to navigate before creation, because it is given onto him. A man has space in his Spirit to navigate in eternity.

It is by this functionality that a prophet can have a detailed understanding about a situation, an individual, about times to come, about the past and so on. Because actually the things he is accessing are stored in eternity, in his heart, not the organ that pumps blood, but his spirit and through the Spirit of God that is in oneness with his spirit (human spirit), he is able to get full meaning of such information.

Actually, it is in the hearts of men that their works are written, there is no such book where whatever men do are written, but in their hearts. No man knows the secrets of a man save the spirit that is within him (1 Cor 2:11). And when God seeks to know a man, He looks not at the physical writings, but on the eternal writings (1 Sam 16:7). The heart of such a man, for that’s where the real truth about men is written.

And I tell you a mystery of the days to come, for many expect us to reach the judgement day and a book containing the records of our works will be opened. Just imagine how huge such a book would be? How many pages it would have? Just assume the pages for only one individual? Someone will say but the Bible says that books were opened (Rev 20:12-15)! Well, a revelation or a message is given to you at the level of your understanding that it may make meaning to you, but when you grow, seek to know, all truth of the things you were told while you were young.

One will say, but then how about the book of life? Well, as long as the message is communicated, and you are guided, to stand. Haven’t you ever read that, “The Spirit of God joins with our spirits to bear record that we are the sons of God (Rom 8:16)?” By the Spirit of God, you were sealed onto eternal salvation (Eph 1:13).

(This can be another days’ topic)

Brethren, there is a dimension of God, a move of God, a manifestation of God, a working of God that hasn’t yet been seen not because men have not labored for it, or desired for it, but because it was sealed in the hearts of some men and the time of the appearance of such hasn’t yet come
