...If there is one outstanding thing that characterizes gifts that men and
governments give to each other, it would be this: They can all be described...

...As Paul contemplated the bountiful blessings he’d received from the hand
of the Lord, which indeed all members of the Body of Christ enjoy, he was
overwhelmed with emotion. Consequently, it is with a true sense of gratitude
that the apostle says,

“Thanks be unto God for His Unspeakable Gift” (II Cor. 9:15)...​

...unspeakable here in the original language has the idea of that which is
inexpressible or indescribable. There should be little question here that
Christ Himself is the Indescribable Gift of God. What mere mortal could
ever begin to plumb the depths of the Person and Work of Christ?
For example, Paul states,

“For ye know the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He Was
Rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that ye through His poverty
might be rich” (II Cor. 8:9).​

This particular passage prompts us to ask three questions based on Paul’s
chronology here in II Corinthians 8:9: When was Christ Rich? When did He
become poor? And in what sense are we rich?...

I think the Bible does exhort in many ways as to what it is like. I'm going to post a few scriptures that we all know or should know.

Psalms 91:1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Isaiah 55:12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.

Romans 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

2 Corinthians 1:7 And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.

Ephesians 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

2 Peter 1:11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.


These scriptures, in my opinion, reveal that we are to know Him today in the life we have all been given to find Him, allowing us to know Him and to walk as He walked.

IT'S ALL ABOUT JESUS
