Knowing God

We all need a certain revelation in our life: That is to know that no matter what happens in your life, God will still love you.

 

Some people get so excited about meeting a famous person in the flesh. They want to touch that person, get their autograph and so on. But how many of those would be so excited about an encounter with God?! Any saved Christian could truly say that that they know God, and that He knows them intimately. How awesome is that! Celebrity figures just pale into insignificance at the very thought.

 

How do we get to know God? We do this through reading and meditating on His Word. We cannot get to know Him through association. But we can know His promises and what He expects of us. He expects us to believe, "Only believe and you will see the glory of God". The more we get to know God's character, the greater we will know what to expect of Him.

 

We expect God to forgive our sins, but what else do we expect of Him on a daily basis? We should all have daily expectations and we need to tell them to Him. By getting into agreement with God and our of agreement with the devil you can turn yourself and your life around. You can have peace, joy, happiness and fulfilment in abundance.

 

To 'wait on God' does not mean to wait as in wait for a bus. 'Wait' in this sense, the Hebrew meaning, means to expect or long for. We need to wait on God for physical healing, a job, a revelation and many other things. God said that if we wait on Him we will never be put to shame.

 

God is omnipresent - how awesome! He is never surprised by anything about us or anything that happens in our lives. Why? Because He knows everything about us from the very beginning to the very end. If we put our trust in God, we can be at peace knowing that He will see us right.

 

God is so huge and amazing and He wants to come live in us. It does not matter what sort of a state you are in, He still wants to be within you. But sometimes we spend too much time thinking about our problems and issues and this leaves no room to let God in. However, if we are willing to have a clear out in order to let Him in, we will prosper, have our needs met and be in good health. In order to aid this process we need to get accustomed to the fact that our spirit is more important than our physical self. The greater we mature in our spirit, the better we will feel.

 

God's Word is our life medicine and we need to take it every day. We also need to be on the offensive, seeking medicine ahead of time in a prepared way. God's medicine heals not just ill health, but also lives, careers, families and many other things. God said, "I am the Lord your healer". Trust God and let Him heal you.
