"Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God" (1 Cor. 2:12).
Revelation knowledge is the very foundation upon which the church of the Lord Jesus Christ is built. Whether or not the church walks in victory or walks far below victory depends on whether or not it is exercising this very issue of revelation knowledge. That makes revelation knowledge important to the body of Christ, wouldn't you say?
There are two kinds of knowledge in this world, sense knowledge and revealed knowledge. Sense or natural knowledge is gained through the five physical senses. It comes from what you hear, see, taste, touch, and smell. It's the kind of knowledge we gain in school and from life experiences. It is received from the outside in.
Then there is revealed or revelation knowledge. The Holy Spirit reveals knowledge to you. You don't get this knowledge because you saw, heard, smelled, tasted, or felt something. This knowledge comes from the inside out.
Colossians 2:2-3 tells us that the treasures of God are hidden in Jesus for us. God's supernatural treasure of wisdom and knowledge is hidden in Jesus. Why would God hide it? God hid it from Satan in order to keep it reserved for the believer.
Satan can only operate by sense knowledge. Satan can only operate against believers in the natural realm; he can only deal with us through the five physical senses. That's why Satan wants to crush revelation knowledge, because he can't operate in it.
he knows it's been hidden away from him and hidden for the believer. He doesn't want the believer to operate in revelation knowledge. Satan does not want the believer to "be filled with the knowledge of God's will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding."
When we walk in this knowledge, Satan can't stop us. We may be hindered or slowed down; but when we operate in revelation knowledge from God we cannot be stopped.
We need to always remember that "God's supernatural treasure of wisdom and knowledge is hidden in Jesus...God hid it from Satan in order to keep it reserved for the believer."
