The love and goodness of God is not simply a concept or just a Biblical truth, but is available to be our daily reality, our experience and our delight. When this revelation becomes ‘heart knowledge’ as opposed to simply head knowledge everything changes.
Being overshadowed by the goodness and presence of God for real, leaves us ruined (in a good way!) for anything less. To encounter intimacy with Jesus is to be left breathless. Jesus you take my breath away!
Encountering God Is For Everyone
Read the following excerpts from Psalms 138 & 139 out loud. Let the enormity of the love of God saturate you mind and heart.
“[God] You are so intimately aware of me Lord and you read my heart like an open book.
[Father] perceive every movement of my spirit and see every thought before it even enters my mind.
[God] formed my innermost being, shaping my delicate inside and my intricate outside.
You wove them all together in my mother’s womb.
I thank you God for creating me so mysteriously complex – it’s breathtaking!
How thoroughly you know me Lord!
You formed every part of me in the secret place, carefully and skillfully shaping me from nothing to something.
You saw who you created me to be before I became me.
By your power in me I can walk through devastation and you revive me.
You are in my past, my present and my future whether I’m aware of it or not.
O God your thoughts of love towards me are more than the grains of sand on every beach.
It amazes me to meditate on these things!”
You were created to uniquely display the essence of your creator and your arrival on earth was timed to the second by Father God – you are not an accident, not an orphan, not insignificant or without purpose.
Let God show you how precious, significant, valuable and chosen you are!
