DESIRE TO KNOW THE LORD
“The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness.”
Proverbs 15:14 (KJV)
To a carnal mind or a natural man, the pursuit of general or scientific knowledge seems not to be as tedious as pursuing the knowledge of God.
To attempt to seek the knowledge of God through sensual efforts is as attempting to get blood from stone.
When you attempt to use your natural comprehensive ability, the knowledge of God remains mystical. It is like attempting to inject the complex data of the universe with its estimated trillion galaxies of stars and atoms in the cerebrum of a child.
No amount of surfing on the internet or even the use of artificial intelligence will bring you into the knowledge of God.
In as much as God’s wisdom and knowledge are deep and His ways are unfathomable and untraceable (Romans 11:33), He wants to be known and enjoyed by His children.
You don’t know God by the flesh, for God is Spirit.
To seek after the knowledge of God requires the passionate diligence of the heart.
God wants to be known and to be made known. He doesn’t want to remain mystical, thus, He revealed Himself through His Son, Jesus.
The knowledge of God is the answer to man’s quandary.
The true knowledge of God in you is the germination of the Divine LIFE.
“Eternal life means to know and experience you as the only true God, and to know and experience Jesus Christ, as the Son whom you have sent” John 17:3 (TPT)
If there should be anything you will desire in life, it should be that you will intimately know the Lord and behold Him in His splendor. Your personal knowledge of God launches you into the mastery of life.
To intimately know the Lord you must first DESIRE to enjoy His presence. It is in your communion with Him that brings you into His unsearchable riches of wisdom and knowledge.
See what the Psalmist said:
“One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.” Psalm 27:4 (KJV)
Let’s look at it in the Message Translation:
“I’m asking God for one thing, only one thing:
To live with him in his house
my whole life long. I’ll contemplate his beauty; I’ll study at his feet.”
Oh glory to God.
Your personal and intimate relationship with God, grants you opportunity to study at His feet. The Lord will show you hidden things. The life of the scriptures will come alive in your heart.
The good news is that, we have access to God through Christ. God now lives in us and we live in Him by Christ Jesus.
Your challenge is not to access God. Your challenge is to intentionally commune with the Lord.
This is how you journey into the knowledge of God.
Selah.
I go for the knowledge of God at all times
God doesn’t want to remain a mystery to man hence the provision of His Word and the Spirit
Thank you Father 🙌🙌🙌
Your personal knowledge of God launches you into the mastery of life.
The ways of God are unfathomable to the man who is trying to use His intellect to know God.
Despite how mystical God is, He has been demystified in Christ and wants all men to know Him.
This is eternal life, to know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you sent. Knowing God is personal and requires communion with Him, not as a man reads a textbook. But as one walking a person.
God wants to be known but my consistency in fellowshipping with Him wull bring me into knowing Him more and more.
I seek to know the lord more and more
It takes a passionate diligence of the heart to seek after the knowledge of God.
Thank you Lord Jesus.🙏🙌
Glory to God
I intentionally commune with the Lord
He is already accessible to me
I just have to commune with him
My heart continually burns with the desire to Know the Lord more!!
It is eternal life that we will know him
God is no more a mystery to man he has made his space the most available one through Christ
Every believer must enter into this level of maturity which is to intimately know the lord and his ways
Understanding God is a means of walking in true mastery because there are certain decisions , word and actions you won’t do because you have a destination and direction you are on . You are not a lost sheep wondering in the wilderness but a sheep following the lord through his word and his authority over you
I yearn to know Jesus more for in him I find me
I see the knowledge of God
I am full of the knowledge of Christ
I grow daily in the knowledge of God as I study the scriptures.
Glory to Jesus
