The Hidden Man of the Heart (4)
Pastor Zubeda Sing
“For I delight in the law of God after the inward man”
Who is the hidden man? Modern psychologists have never found him. They have given him a new name. “The Subconscious Mind”. They know that he is down there. However, they do not know who he is or what his functions are. The Word speaks of the Real Man (Spirit Man). This part of man is the Recreated Man. This part can know God and have fellowship with Him. There is also an outward man.
*2 Corinthians 4:16, “For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.” This inward man is an Eternal man. He does not know time or age. He is always fresh and new. The body is the home of the senses, which grows old and feeble. Senses can fail to function. Faith and Love are the fruits of this recreated human spirit. The recreated inner man, this hidden man of the heart, is the part of us that can become intimate with the Father. It is he that grows in Grace and in Spiritual discernment of Revelation Knowledge. Natural men understand the realm of the five senses. Sense knowledge is limited to the physical world
When a man finds Jesus Christ, he has no need to look further. He finds reality. Jesus is reality. The hidden man of the heart is the Real man. The “inward man” is the “Spirit man.” So Christ in the Word may dwell in your Recreated Spirit. Your human spirit is united with deity.
