Unknown


You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not admit them? "From now on I will tell you of new things, of hidden things unknown to you.


By an act of faith, Abraham said yes to God's call to travel to an unknown place that would become his home. When he left he had no idea where he was going. By an act of faith he lived in the country promised him, lived as a stranger camping in tents. Isaac and Jacob did the same, living under the same promise. Abraham did it by keeping his eye on an unseen city with real, eternal foundations—the City designed and built by God.


For this is required by the decrees of Israel; it is a regulation of the God of Jacob. He made it a law for Israelwhen he attacked Egypt to set us free. I heard an unknown voice say, “Now I will take the load from your shoulders; I will free your hands from their heavy tasks.

[ The Day and Hour Unknown ] "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

Practice hospitality to one another (those of the household of faith). [Be hospitable, be a lover of strangers, with brotherly affection for the unknown guests, the foreigners, the poor, and all others who come your way who are of Christ's body.] And [in each instance] do it ungrudgingly (cordially and graciously, without complaining but as representing Him).

Isaiah 48:6 Hebrews 11:8 Psalm 81:5 Mark 13:32 1 Peter 4:9

The best way to know, to experience, God’s will is to say “I will” to God.
