Can You See Within The Stone?

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it. (Revelation 2:17)

 Thought For Today: 
When we receive a true revelation from God, it brings us spiritual enlightenment. To me, it's always an exciting moment. However, have you ever tried to share the revelation God gave you, only to find it difficult for others to understand? This is what Jesus means when He said, To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it. (Revelation 2:17)

While some might doubt your revelation, it’s simply because they weren't able to see what you saw. All they can see is a white stone while you can see the new name written within it. The beautiful thing about the Word of God is that it is full of revelation, just waiting to be revealed.

For some, baptism in Jesus’ name is observed because they have experienced the revelation while reading Matthew 28:19 which said, Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the NAME of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: For others, it’s just a white stone. Someone once said, well, when we baptize in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, we know that we are baptizing in Jesus’ name we just don’t say the name. My reply was, wouldn’t it be much easier to say what you mean? I am happy to tell you that he allowed me to rebaptize him in Jesus' Name.

I encourage you to ask God for revelation when you pray.
