Introduction to Our God

And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. John 17:3 Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits. Daniel 11:32

Many of us go to a religious institution, whether it is a church, a temple or the mountains. The two scriptures above relates not to an exercise, or learning about GOD, but a KNOWING. I’ve been saved for about 17 years, with the aspiration of being a pastor. The other day Holy Spirit, spoke to my heart and communicated this to me. You have everything in Christ in God settle down, there is no goal to reach. Be still and know I am God. He was saying get to know me. As I’m writing this its early morning I don’t have a message to prepare, however I’m getting to know God at His pace. It is in the process of knowing and growing in intimacy exploits and activity will come.

Holy Spirit opened my eyes. In the Old Testament Old covenant, we see men called by God and anointed by God. It was am immediate call they heard God’s voice today; they were preaching to the people tomorrow. The New Testament the New Covenant is based on better promises in Christ Jesus. It’s a more intimate personal covenant, were Jesus spent three years with the disciples, told them to wait on the power of the Holy Spirit. It was about another three years before Gentiles were brought to the fold. It was all a timely process of relationship. The new covenant is based on Forgiveness of sins to know Jesus and the Father to become like Jesus. That’s life process.

This leads me to GOD. Who is the GOD of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and of course Jesus and all of Us? The deeper begins.
