1. To reveal something is to point it out and demonstrate it. it was already there... you're just revealing it.
2. Our hands have the ability to transmit intellect or understanding.
-consecration
-sacrifice
-healing
-resurrection
-correction/smiting
-blessing
-anointing of the Holy Ghost, hand of God
3. We can sit on our hands because we are trying to save ourselves and promote ourselves (and that leads to anger and abuse of our neighbor). Lift Jesus and reveal him.
*Altar call:
-your hands were specially designed to reveal God to this world that doesn't recognize him.
-They might say they do... but they don't recognize God.
-Think of somebody you know that doesn't recognize God (like you do). And extend yourself. Reach out to them in skill and sacrifice, and when they say ah... now I see... don't abuse them for it, they will reveal it in turn.
