Maybe it’s not about getting God to reveal things to you but you getting in a place where you can see revealed things.

In 1952 the cure for polio was discovered. However, the cure for polio actually existed prior to 1952 right alongside of polio—but it had to be discovered; it had to be revealed. What cure, what answer, what solution to your problem currently exists right alongside of your problem that you simply need to have revealed to you?

How do you get concealed things revealed to you? The obvious answer would be for you to seek the answers, solutions, and revelation you need. The unobvious answer is to seek the place that gives you the vantage point to see what is being hidden from you.

Not too long ago I was standing outside of a restaurant close to a large tree. A good friend of mine was several feet away from me but I did not know it because the tree was blocking my view of him. He was there but I could not see him. When I took two steps to the left I was surprised to see him standing only ten feet away from me. It was only when I got in the right place that I saw what was there all the time. If you can get in the right place you will be able to see what is there but hidden from you.

Someone from Florida can’t see the city of Detroit until they’ve entered the state of Michigan. There are certain things you will never see if you’re not in the right spiritual state. Maybe it’s not a matter of getting God to reveal things to you but a matter of you getting in a place where you can see revealed things.

How to Get In the Right State:

1. Rid your mind of all prior thoughts on the matter.

• If the dilemma still exists that means all the prior thoughts did not produce the solution.
• Forget about everything that you did to decipher the code in the past. This will allow room for new un-thought thoughts.

2. Discover the places in your world where you can hear the clearest.

• It could be a drive into the country, sitting in the patio, on the lake, a walk in the woods, or sitting in the movie theater.
• Once you discover that place, begin to frequent it for the purpose of hearing and seeing what you can’t hear and see anywhere else.
• An uncluttered environment is the birthing place for “in”sight.

3. Open your spirit to new thoughts on the matter that you have never considered.

• If you’re not ready to record the new information it probably won’t come.
• There are certain things that God won’t reveal until He knows you’re ready to record them.

4. Discover what inspires creativity in you.

• Creativity is attracted to creativity.
• Go to the places that inspire the most creativity in you.
• Get in the mindset that you are about to tap into solutions that you have never even considered before.

5. Worship God as the God of creative power and authority.

• What you worship Him “as” He will surround you “with.”

Your turn! What do you do to get yourself in the place to be able to see what is being hidden from you?
