Do you know God? No, I mean do you really know God?
1 Chronicles 22:19a says, “Now set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD your God…”
Deuteronomy 4:29 says, “But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.”
Matthew 22:37-39 says, “Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.”
My friend, never underestimate how significant you are to God or how important He wants to be to you. You were created to know Him, to fellowship with Him, and represent Him to others.
Sadly, when you only know facts about the Lord rather than truly experiencing Him, you may not fully grasp just how deeply He loves you or the wonderful plans He has for your life. You’ll also sense an abiding void in your life that no one else or nothing else can fill.
So consider this, are you seeking information about the Father or are you really getting to know Him in a personal, imitate way? Are you pursuing God to receive a blessing or is your interest intimate fellowship with your Creator?
The Father wants you to understand far more about Him than just what He can do for you. He wants you to experience His eternal, all-sufficient, loving presence. He wants to satisfy the deepest parts of your being and heal the wounded places of your heart. So I encourage you to surrender yourself to Him with a complete and intimate trust. Be vulnerable with Him, hold nothing back, and discover the One your soul truly desires.
There’s a song entitled, I Want to be Where You Are, written by Don Mown. Listen to theses words,
I just want to be where You are, dwelling daily in Your presence. I don’t want to worship from afar; draw me near to where You are. I just want to be where You are, in Your dwelling place forever. Take me to the place where You are; I just want to be with You. I want to be where You are, dwelling in Your presence, feasting at Your table, surrounded by Your glory; In Your presence, that’s where I always want to be. I just want to be, I just want to be with You. O my God, You are my strength and my song; and when I’m in Your presence, tho’ I’m weak You’re always strong. I just want to be where You are, in Your dwelling place forever. Take me to the place where You are; I just want to be, I just want to be with You.
My your prayer be: “Lord, I want to know You. Draw me into Your loving presence and reveal Yourself to me,
Today may your prayer be: “Lord, I want to know You. Draw me into Your loving presence and reveal Yourself to me, amen.”
