BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD
Knowing Christ falls into two categories
(a) Intellectual. You can learn all there is to know about Him. Years of study. Bible analysis etc etc. (I personally know a lot of intellectual information……..during all the years I never got to KNOW the Person but possibly could quote you chapter and verse on many topics.)
(b) Relational
BE STILL AND KNOW. Not of the mind but because of resurrection and the coming of the Holy Spirit….certainty of HOPE and PEACE because HE – Prince of Peace is within.
The Bible is a LIVING Book. We must stop treating it as just a Study Book.
Before 2015 ends Believers around the world need to truly KNOW HIM. It’s not about a religion. (Jesus did not come to bring ‘another religion’ He came so we could have a RELATIONSHIP with God.)
BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD!
Really knowing HIM means that Christmas becomes the most beautiful, inspirational, Sacred Season of remembrance in your life.
Meditate on these scriptures:
Cols. 1: 26 and 27th.
The mystery has been hidden from ages and generations is now revealed to His Saints. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the Glory of this mystery among gentiles……CHRIST IN US – The Hope of Glory.
Jesus is not abstract. He is real.
He is ALIVE in us. If we let HIM.
BE STILL (even for a few minutes)
KNOW THAT your Saviour has redeemed you. Like a child come.
BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD!
For wherever we may travel for the rest of this week I say: a-men.(may it be so).
It’s that relational component that is so amazingly outstanding. I remember feeling so burdened with do’s and don’ts I just said to Him “I just can’t do it all!” and so clearly I heard Him say, “of course you can’t, that’s why I had to come.” God bless you!
