God Wants To Be Known and Understood

As our soul and body align with our spirit, His River of Life flows through us unhindered; our behavior begins to line up with our identity. Not only do we experience freedom, healing and dependence in our own being, but we become available and engaged, enthusiastic and sacrificing, to bring His life to those in need according to His plan. So as knowing God is developing that personal relationship with Him on all levels, Knowing His Ways, understanding Him is sharing His goals, desires, and activities here on this earth: Doing His Acts.

Knowing God is a Process

Though you can learn from others’ experiences, and it is advisable to do so, your teacher, counselor, guide and encourager is Jesus Himself. Give yourself time—be patient with yourself. You’re exactly where God wants you to be, and He will not let you miss out on anything He has for you. His desire is for you to know Him, and He ALWAYS gets what He wants.

Knowing God, Our Part

We are in cooperation with God in this endeavor; He is not raising up slaves, but sons, to rule, reign and fellowship with Him. So part of our training as joint-heirs will be to learn by experience how to cooperate with our Older Brother in every endeavor.

The Sovereignty of God

God is a jealous God, and does not delegate His sovereignty, His authority to anyone else. The ONLY spiritual authority in a believer’s life is God Himself. God is NOT your co-pilot, He’s your Pilot; He doesn’t want the Guest Room, He wants the Throne Room; He doesn’t come to help out, He comes to take over! So if you want to get along with God, don’t sit in His chair—AND DON’T LET ANYONE ELSE SIT IN IT EITHER!

The Act of Waiting

There are habits we can develop, opportunities that we can respond to that will cooperate with God in His plans for His revealing. The fastest and most effective habit we can learn is the Act of Waiting.
