What can we rest on regarding the things God has prepared?
We can rest on God's promise, because God cannot lie. Scripture says eye has not seen, ear has not heard, and it has not entered man's heart what God has prepared for those who love Him. The day is coming when they will experience those prepared things.
Les explains that 1 Corinthians 2:9 is a promise: eye has not seen, ear has not heard, neither has it entered the heart of man the things God has prepared for them that love Him. He stresses that God cannot lie, so we can rest on it. The day is coming when we will experience those things. Les suggests Paul was bursting to share what he saw and heard in II Corinthians 12, but he could not, lest any man think of him above what he saw him to be.
But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
