Text – Mathew 5:8, Exodus 3:1-5, Acts 9:1-6
The first credential to an encounter with God is a pure heart.
Divine revelation is when God gatecrashes your privacy to share a secret of heaven with you.
It is when God holds you in a position of trust and gives you information that will benefit you and others.
You’d hardly see any man who has done something great for God without a divine encounter.
