God Takes Responsibility For Every Aspect Of Our Progress

Taking Responsibility

God Himself not only made the way for us to enter into a knowing relationship with Him, He also takes full responsibility for every aspect of our progress. He provides the teaching, encouragement, revelation, strength, circumstances, understanding, fellowship and companionship that we need in order to enter His rest.

God Makes His Presence Known

God is a real person, and wants us to be confident of His present-ness. He exists on many levels, but as His sons we have the privilege of knowing Him in an intimate level not available to unbelievers and other elements of His creation. Part of the process of getting to know Him is learning to appreciate our privilege and in turn respecting and honoring our God by responding to His call to “Be With Him.”

God’s Omni-Presence

God is everywhere, created everything and everyone, and exists eternally. He created time, and therefore is Master over and controls it. He created the elements, and is therefore Master over and controls them. He created the three realms of reality (spiritual, supernatural and natural) and therefore is Master over and controls them. Whether a person or creature acknowledges His existence and control or not, He Is.

God’s Manifest Presence

There are also times and situations in which God chooses to make Himself known to our physical senses. In our age He has manifested Himself in this present reality through His Son, who was fully real as fully man. Personally, there may be times when He chooses to make Himself known to our physical senses; a personal visitation, the scent of roses, a touch of His hand, the sound of His knocking or footsteps, His calling our name, or even a taste of honey. He wants to increase our awareness of this possibility so that when He reveals Himself in this way we will recognize it is Him and respond appropriately.
