Knowing God is crucially important for living our lives. The world has become a strange, mad and painful place, and live in it, becomes disappointing for those who do not know about God.
The Beginning Of Understanding
Throughout the Jewish scriptures, we learned that knowing God starts with fear in God. The fear of God is the beginning of understanding, wisdom, and knowledge.
The fact that God indwells ass must now be above us, infinitely exalted above all creation. To think of God as transcendent inspires adoration and worship. Without this idea in our mind and worship is a mirror ritual, and a formality. In days past, men and women who knew what it was to walk in the fear of the Lord had as a basis for their lives, the concept of God as “high and exalted.” However, intimate their relationship with God, they were gripped by the fact that God was high and lifted up. Why is it that in the modern-day Church we do not need anything like this.
Most churches have surrendered there, once lock the concept of God, and have substituted for it one so low, so ignoble, as to be utterly unworthy of thinking, worshipping the men at the alter who is teaching them the Holy Bible. This Deliberately little by little, and with out their knowledge, and there awareness people are unaware that their situation is tragic.
Know God – Seeking Him With All Our Heart
Knowing God is all about seeking Him. God tells us in scripture, “you are Sydney and find me when you seek me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:13).
O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul, thirst for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land, where there is no water (Psalm 63:1).
As we seek to know, God, we learn that the fear of God is only the beginning of understanding. As we grow in our knowledge of God, we experience the amazing love of God, reflected through His son, Jesus Christ.
Now this is eternal life; that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.
John 17:3
Knowing God – It’s All About Love
Understanding Gods incredible love for us is the all important step to truly knowing God! It’s for the love of God that has the power to cast out fear and set us free!
Let those who fear the Lord, say His love endures forever
Psalm 118:4
The lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in His unfailing love.
Psalm 147:11
We have all sinned, and deserve God‘s judgment. God, the Father, Sent His only Son to satisfy that judgment for those who believe in Him. Jesus, the creator and eternal Son of God, who lived a sinless life, loves us so much that He died for our sins, taking the punishment that we deserve, buried, and rose from the dead according to the Bible. If you truly believe and trust this in your heart, receiving Jesus alone as your Savior, declaring, “Jesus is Lord, I repent for my sins,”you will be saved from Judgment and spend eternity with God in heaven.
