King James Version

What does 1 Corinthians 2:9 mean? โ†’

Passage Context

7But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
8Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
9But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
10But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

Devotional Reflection

JoyPeaceHopeAwe

Many of the things we look forward to and dream about aren't nearly as great as we thought they would be. There is, however, one event that is even better than we could ever imagine. When Jesus comes back to take us home to be with our Father, it will be better than anything we could ever ask, think, imagine, or dream. Maranatha โ€” Jesus, please come!

Prayer

Thank you, Father, for knowing me before time existed. Thank you for creating me while I was inside my mother. I'm grateful that you sent Jesus to die for my sins. And please accept my sincere gratitude for the day when Jesus returns and takes me to be with you forever. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
