“Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.”
—Jeremiah 33:3

Reflection

To me, Jeremiah 33:3 is one of the most exciting verses in the Hebrew Bible. The idea is that if we call upon our Creator to show us things that we’re not able to perceive in the natural, the Lord is going to open up mysteries so we can see what we can’t see, go where we couldn’t go, and experience what we can never experience.

Do you remember what it was like when you were a child and everything was new? You had a great sense of adventure. Going to new places and experiencing things for the first time was wondrous. Life was an adventure.

But as we age, the adventure of life begins to diminish. Been there, done that. The things that once captured our hearts can become blasé.

How do we get back that sense of wonder? How do we get back that sense of fascination?

We go beyond the natural into the supernatural because in the supernatural, life is always new.

So we can go to Papa God in the morning, call out to Him, and say, Lord, show me something marvelous. Show me something new. Reveal something to me that will fascinate me. Make my life an adventure.

We see this in Isaiah 6 and Revelation 4. Isaiah and John get a glimpse into the heavens and see the Lord high and lifted up upon His throne. They hear the angels crying out, “Holy, holy, holy.”

This is not monotonous repetition. The glory and presence of God continue to be manifest in greater and greater wonders, in a higher and more glorious fashion. Each time a new wave of God’s glory is released, the angels are so overwhelmed and taken aback that they respond again, “Holy.”

Beloved, there is always more in God. Call to Him. Ask Him to show you what you do not yet know.

Application

• Call upon Father God and ask Him to show you something new, marvelous, and beyond what you can perceive in the natural.
• Refuse to settle into spiritual familiarity. Keep looking for the greater wonders of God’s presence and glory.

Prayer

Papa God, thank You that there is always something more in You. I call upon You today and ask You to show me great and mighty things that I do not know. Restore in me a sense of wonder, fascination, and spiritual adventure. Take me beyond what I can perceive in the natural and open my heart to the greater wonders of Your presence. Let every fresh revelation of Your glory cause my heart to respond, “Holy, holy, holy.” Amen.
