    Clearer Revelations of God

    It is our privilege to reach higher and still higher for clearer revelations of the character of God. When Moses prayed, “‘Please, show me Your glory,’” the Lord did not rebuke him; He granted his prayer. God declared to His servant, “‘I will make all My goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before you.’” Exodus 33:18, 19.MHH 271.3

    Sin darkens the mind and dims our perceptions. As sin is purged from our hearts, the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ, illuminating His Word and reflected from the face of nature, more and more fully will declare Him “‘merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth.’” Exodus 34:6.MHH 271.4

    In His light we shall see light, until mind and heart and soul are transformed into the image of His holiness.MHH 271.5

    For those who thus lay hold of the divine assurances of God’s Word, there are wonderful possibilities. Before them lie vast fields of truth, vast resources of power. Glorious things are to be revealed. Privileges and duties that they do not even suspect to be in the Bible will be made manifest. All who walk in the path of humble obedience, fulfilling His purpose, will obtain more and more of the wisdom of God.MHH 271.6

    If students take the Bible as their guide and stand firmly for principle, they may aspire to any height of attainment. All the philosophies of human nature have led to confusion and shame when God has not been recognized as all in all. But the precious faith inspired of God imparts strength and nobility of character. As His goodness, His mercy, and His love are dwelt upon, clearer and still clearer will be the perception of truth. Higher, holier, will be the desire for purity of heart and clearness of thought. The soul dwelling in the pure atmosphere of holy thought is transformed by interacting with God through the study of His Word. Truth is so large, so far-reaching, so deep, so broad, that self is lost sight of. The heart is softened and subdued into humility, kindness, and love.MHH 271.7

    And the natural powers are enlarged because of holy obedience. From the study of the Word of life, students may come forth with minds expanded, elevated, ennobled. If, like Daniel, they are hearers and doers of the Word of God, they may advance as he did in all branches of learning. Being pure-minded, they will become strong-minded. Every intellectual faculty will be quickened. They may so educate and discipline themselves that all within the sphere of their influence shall see what a person can be and do when connected with the God of wisdom and power.MHH 272.1
