Authority to Reveal the Father - Luke 10:22
"My Father has given me all things. No person knows who the Son is—only the Father knows. And only the Son knows who the Father is. The only people that will know about the Father are those people the Son chooses to tell." (ERV) Full TextKey Thought
Jesus reveals God. You want to know God? You need to look to Jesus! Jesus is God's ultimate expression in human form. He is God's Living Word—God's message spoken through the life of Jesus. Jesus has authority over everything. He knows and reveals the Father. So, if you really want to know God, get to know Jesus!

Today's Verses in Context
Then the Holy Spirit made Jesus feel very happy. Jesus said, "I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth. I praise you because you have hidden these things from the wise and smart people. But you have shown these things to people that are like little children. Yes, Father, you did this because this is what you really wanted to do. "My Father has given me all things. No person knows who the Son is—only the Father knows. And only the Son knows who the Father is. The only people that will know about the Father are those people the Son chooses to tell." Then Jesus turned to his followers. They were there alone with him. Jesus said, "You are blessed to see the things you now see! I tell you, many prophets and kings wanted to see the things that you now see. But they did not see these things. And many prophets and kings wanted to hear the things that you now hear. But they did not hear these things."-- Luke 10:21-24 (ERV)
