After she was clearly pregnant, an angel explained the situation to her betrothed, Joseph, in a dream, and he faithfully married her. She received the call humbly.įew understood of the miracle of it what they saw was an out-of-wedlock pregnancy in a devout young woman. Just the Holy Spirit, who had chosen Mary to gestate and raise the Messiah, the Son of God. It goes way back into eternity, but I’m going to start the story with a miraculous pregnancy. Matthew 4:1 “Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.” And the Holy Spirit wants to share through this event a revelation of our beautiful God. Hi, I’m Gail Ruth, and today we’re going to look at the time in Jesus’ life when the Holy Spirit led Him into the wilderness to be temped by the devil for 40 unimaginable, probably hellish, days. God is beautiful, absolutely good, gentle, light of heart, rich in tender mercies, and filled with loving kindness. Plus, many other truths from throughout the Scriptures were woven into the story that I have not cited.
Here are the Scriptures dealing with parts of the story I told:Īnd these are the Scriptures I quoted from in the video:
I encourage you to study these things for yourself this week. And if you receive it, it will change your life forever. Next week I will be building on this and telling you the next part of the story. Part Two is an even more wonderful revelation of how beautiful God is. In this episode, the Holy Spirit illuminates Matthew 4:1 “Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.” And so here I tell a story that offers a magnificent revelation of our beautiful God in this, beyond anything you might imagine.Īnd this is just Part One.
And as we see, some will seek God’s mysteries through the occultic arts, but those revelations are always laced with sabotage and destruction, and even death. for the Holy Spirit to illuminate the greater story of God’s loveliness that is hidden, waiting in the Scriptures for us.įor the Holy Spirit is the only One who can reveal the true beauty of God within the living, powerful, God-breathed Scripture. And ask, and seek, and knock (Matthew 7:7-11). And throw away all the assumptions we made based on that false premise. When we look at the Scriptures knowing without a doubt that God is beautiful and absolutely good, we are compelled to seek deeper than we did when we assumed that God was harsh.
