Devotional Today: Intimacy

in christinity •  7 years ago 

That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; Philippians 3:10 (KJV)

Man was made for relationship with GOD. There is a vacuum in the core of every man that only GOD can fill. That vacuum is only filled when we come to "know" GOD. This kind of knowledge is borne out of intimacy. Apostle Paul's cry in the scripture above is one that should resound in our hearts and souls.

GOD is so interesting and inexhaustible! There is so much to Him. The more you know Him, the more you realise there is still so much more to know about Him
Real power comes when you truly Know GOD. Knowing GOD equips you for exploits.


"..but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits". Daniel 11:32b.


It starts first with a strong desire. It was a strong desire that birthed Apostle Paul's cry, but he didn't just stop there, he also kept pressing into Jesus. You can only get to know a person better when you spend quality time with that person.

Spending time in prayers, deep study of GOD's Word, meditation and worship will open you up to fresh revelations of GOD. The Holy Spirit is ready to reveal the person of GOD through Jesus to you but you have to be desirous of Him? Are you ready to pay the price for that relationship?

Confession

I declare that I grow in the knowledge of GOD and I make His presence my dwelling place. With each new day, my desire to know GOD increases and by His Spirit, I enjoy access to divine revelations in Jesus Name.

Blessings...
