Being knowledgeable about God
does not automatically translate into an experience. You must consciously take
and apply the word of God to your life daily.
Text: James 1:23-25; Hebrews
11:1-6; 2 Chronicles 16:9
There are many provisions in the
word of God for His children. 2 Chronicles 16:9 says, “For the eyes of the Lord
run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of
them whose heart is perfect toward Him”. This implies that he whom God finds
faithful to His promises will receive a visitation from the Lord.
There are general or specific
provisions of God for an individual and this provision is determined by what
you know about God. God said “because without faith, it is impossible to please
Him” (Hebrews 11:6).
The secret to faith is finding
out the subject of faith and its capacity to do beyond what you can ask or
think. Having a big faith in a small God is not going to help but having a
small faith in a big God will work wonders in your life. You must be sure of
your faith. The sureness of God is built on the foundation of accurate
knowledge and not guess work (2 Peter 1:16).
Jesus is real, He’s not false.
God wants you to come to a place that your knowledge and experience of Him
becomes a reality. The knowledge and information we get in the Bible is
designed of God for us to duplicate it in our lives and make them our own
experience. Everything good you see happen to people in the Bible, God can make
it happen to you too. God is looking for people that will take Him at His word
and stand upon it to determine their experience and outcome in life.
You cannot be surer of anything
in life that the experience of God you have. What becomes your experience
starts as a revelation or information that you test and discover. The knowledge
of God without being proven will never become your personal experience.
Jesus heals the sick, but it will
not become an experience or influence on you till either you face a challenge
with your health or someone you know faces it, and therefore, takes the
knowledge of the Word demanding that Jesus should do what He said He can do.
And when it happens it becomes your experience.
