The Lord Jesus has told us that if we keep His words He will manifest Himself to us (Jhn 14:21). There are certain conditions which must be observed by us if we would have manifestations of, and from the Lord.
1. The manifestation of His power is conditional upon our waiting on the Lord in prayer (Act 1:8, 14; Act 2:4).
2. The manifestation of His joy is conditional upon our abiding in Christ (Jhn 15:10-11).
3. The manifestation of His peace is conditional upon carefulness for nothing, prayerfulness in everything, and thankfulness for anything (Phl 4:6-7).
4. The manifestation of His knowledge is conditional upon doing God's will (Jhn 7:17).
5. The manifestation of His purpose is conditional upon walking with the Lord (Psa 103:7).
6. The manifestation of His love is based upon dwelling in God (1Jo 4:16).
7. The manifestation of His glory is given to those who are taught by the Holy Spirit (1Cr 2:9-10).
