Rather than just a blank stare with an empty desire having no desire or fixation upon a subject what is the Holy Ghost suppose to do all the heavy lifting. It is much like, forgive please, my work on The Apocalrock. I am drawn to a spot and know enough to take the picture. Then I have to muse over it and yearn to see what 'might' be there without any preconceived notions, like making up my own text for Joseph. The Apocalrock reveals complex composition and once there is sufficient earnest on my part it manifests.
Like with the Isaiah sighting that kept my fixed attention for months as I hung it up before my eyes for a long time. Ask Juggler Vain about that. Then the composition revealed all in one moment in great complexity.
Joseph learned how to set his intent correctly so as to get a response from his gifts. Oliver had no clue and was not given the keys that actually make the wheels turn. He might have if he had utilized his faith differently.
This is not about the Apocalcrock. Jesus, you are like a broken record.
Yah! It's all about how to get a revelation. Without a real need, some honest intent, forget about it. God will not be trifled with. Amazing as it might seem with all the disrespect of him by this world, God takes himself quite seriously, and that for the sake of the entire universe......continually. He does do ALL the heavy lifting for all things here and out there.......way out and far far away, he is the Man of Holiness.
