A-ha! By jove I’ve got it! Eureka! These are all statements we make when something powerful, maybe even life changing, crosses our minds and we have a breakthrough moment.
These are blessings where revelation meets a felt need. Jesus comes to us in this way because that’s how he often comes. In huge, dynamic little ways. He came once two thousand years to a world that didn’t expect Him, revealed His light (John 1:9) , His power and His grace as a baby to start, growing in power and wisdom (Luke 2:52), revealing who He always was. The center of the Universe. Love at the core of creation.
This understanding came to all of us who came to believe at different times. Like the Prodigal younger brother, we all “come to our senses” (Luke 15:17) or have an A-Ha moments, and realize our need and how it is met and is fully covered by the plans and promises of a good and faithful God. I experienced this knowledge in revelations about 5 years apart in benchmark moments of realization that will always stay with me. In college I learned about Him, in my mid twenties I came to thank Him. Now I’ve come to obey Him more and more.
Have you felt a tug on your heart, a need that keeps coming up that you need something to be whole or filled up to tranquility and contentment? When was the last time you had an epiphany or a-ha come to your senses moment?
That need is placed in you by God. I urge you to dig into that need. You will discover the God given truth sowed beneath your feet.
God bless you and keep your eyes up! A-ha’s are all along the trail of obedience to the Lord.
