Of Learned Men

Apostle Grace Lubega

Isaiah 50:4(KJV); The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.

Reading the Bible from cover to cover does not necessarily make one a learned man. Attending Bible school is also not what qualifies you as learned in the things of the Spirit.

There are well read but not necessarily learned men.

A learned man has understood how God teaches us through the scriptures. The primary understanding is that God does not teach you the Word so that you learn it progressively.

Rather, God reveals Himself to you as a person, gives you an understanding and when you receive that understanding, you start to read the Word as a learned man.

The understanding of God’s Word starts from the revelation of His person.
God and His Word are one.

The Bible reveals that in the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God and the Word was God (John 1:1).

Unlearned men study the Word without the consciousness that it is the very person of God. Learned men in the Word know that the scriptures are a mirror of His person.

This is why when a learned man reads Genesis, he will see Christ the light at the beginning of creation; Christ the seed that crushes the head of the serpent.

When a learned man reads Exodus he sees Christ the Passover lamb, Christ the rock that was smote by Moses. In Numbers, he sees Christ, in Deuteronomy he sees Christ, in Leviticus, the prophets, Malachi, the Gospels, the epistles and in Revelation, he sees Christ.

Glory to God!

GOLDEN NUGGET:

Unlearned men study the Word without the consciousness that it is the very person of God. Learned men in the Word know that the scriptures are a mirror of His person.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank you for this Word. The Word dwells in me richly and I am rooted and grounded in faith. I see you through all the scriptures because I am a learned spirit. The revelation of who you are has flooded my spirit and the eyes of my understanding are enlightened. With this consciousness, I study the scriptures every day. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
