God didn’t delegate the responsibility to discern divine revelation without giving us the power to discern. The fallen human mind can’t tell the difference between divine revelation and a clever fake. Discernment isn’t innate in us, but the Holy Spirit must live and move in us for His power to work. The Holy Spirit in us is the power to discern if we’re in submission to Him. Therefore, revelation is direct and doesn’t use our human interpretation of God’s revelation. If we’re rebellious, if we try to be independent of the Holy Spirit, we won’t have discernment. If we continue to interpret after God reveals, our interpretation twists what God revealed. So the double-minded person, the person who tries to follow both the human mind and the mind of Christ, receives nothing from the Lord. Double-minded thinkers twist and distort whatever they receive. And that’s why those who lean on their own minds cannot receive God’s revelation.

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart; and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 Authorized King James Version

We receive this trusting as a gift since we can’t trust God through human effort. Faith is free. It comes from God as He leads us. God gives faith and Christ is the Author of this faith. So when we stand in His presence in deep respect for Him and submission to Him, He speaks to us. And when we hear and acknowledge Him, faith comes by hearing Him. If we resist Him, He won’t force Himself or His wisdom on us.
