INTRODUCTION

Today is the first Sunday of the year. It is our prayer that the Lord Almighty will manifest Himself for our physical and spiritual benefit throughout the year in Jesus name. 

Literarily, “Revelation” means an uncovering, removal of the veil, and disclosure of what was previously unknown. Revelation of God is His manifestation to humankind. All humankind’s knowledge of God comes by way of revelation. From the creation story till now, God in one way or the other revealed Himself to humans in many various ways (Heb. 1:1-3). The revelation of God refuted the claim of the Deists that God never intervenes in human affairs. We see clearly in Genesis 15:1-7 how God revealed his plan to Abraham. God’s revelation to humankind includes His choice for earthly rulers and His own reign as the best and everlasting.


STUDY GUIDE

1. What is your understanding of God’s revelation to humankind?

2. From the following passages Gen. 2:15-22; 15: 1-7; and Heb. 1:1 how did God reveal Himself to mankind?

3. According to Daniel 2:16-19, how can we receive God’s revelation?

4. How can we use Daniel 2:20-21 and 3:24-28 to convince the Deists that God consistently intervenes in human affairs?

 

CONCLUSION

Modern thought often questions the possibility and reality of God’s revelation to man. Biblical account affirms the reality through various God’s interventions in human affairs.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: By God alone can God be known.

MEMORY VERSE: Heb. 1:1 “Long ago God spoke in many different ways to our fathers through the prophets, in visions, dreams, and even face to face, telling them little by little about his plans.(Living Bible Translation)
