Get To Know God

‭‭”…those who wish to boast should boast in this alone: that they truly know me and understand that I am the Lord who demonstrates unfailing love and who brings justice and righteousness to the earth, and that I delight in these things. I, the Lord, have spoken!” Jeremiah 9:24

The truth is, if you don’t know God, it doesn’t matter how much money you have in your bank account, what degrees you have acquired or what position you hold in the company.

Until you have a relationship with God, you haven’t really begun to live!

And part of getting to know Him is learning the truth about yourself.

After witnessing the miracle-working power of Christ, Peter acknowledged, ‘I am a sinful man!’ Luke 5:8.

When the prophet Isaiah saw the Lord sitting upon His throne, he cried, ‘Woe is me!’ Isaiah 6:5.

But God doesn’t tell you the truth about yourself and then leave you that way. No, like a good doctor, He tells you you’re sick so that you can get the proper treatment.

And the proper treatment for sin is salvation through the blood of Jesus.

You will never know God until you are related to Him through Jesus Christ.

So if you’ve never accepted Him as your Saviour, start this New Year by praying: ‘Lord, I repent and turn from my sin. I place my life in Your hands, trusting You as my Lord and Saviour. By faith, I receive the gift of eternal life. Starting today, I ask You to lead and guide me and fulfil Your will through me. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.’

Happy New Year!
