“And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” John 17:3 (KJV)
In the heart of every one, there is the search of the Father. This is because in the heart of every man or woman there is the desire for affirmation. You cannot get this affirmation from any where else other than from the Father. This is why you need to know God as Father.
When you know God as Father, no body will be able to intimidate you to do what they want you to do in other to compromise your faith. This is because your allegiance would be to your Father from who you get your affirmation from. When your life is lived in this way, obeying God becomes easy. Living right becomes easy. Why? You have met your Father.
1 John 2:24 says; “If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.” This means that if you continue in the knowledge of the Father and Jesus Christ, you shall continue in the Son and in the Father. That means it will be impossible for you to backslide from the faith. So if you don't want to fall away from the faith, continue in the knowledge of the Father and Jesus Christ.
When you walk with the knowledge that God is your Father, and in the knowledge of Jesus Christ, the Zoe life of God would inundate your entire being. It will keep you in health, such that you will not need to pray for healing. You will live in perpetual wholeness in your spirit, soul and body. This is because knowing God and Jesus Christ is life eternal. (John 17:3)
Moses had such a close relationship with God and the bible says about him in Deuteronomy 34:7 that; “And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.” His natural force not been abated here does not just refer to semen, but it also refers the moisture in his body. This means that the ageing process in his body was slowed down. We also can slow down the ageing process of our bodies, if we will only spend time with the word, and follow after the knowledge of the Father and of Jesus Christ our Lord.
Therefore as you expose yourself to the word and knowing the Father, expect to see such manifestations in your life. Get the messages: 'Knowing God', 'Knowing God as Father' and 'The heart of the Father' listen to them over and over again until the revelation of who the Father is dawns in your spirit. You were born to know Him, to love Him and to serve Him.
PRAYER
Father, as I set my heart to know you, I ask that my spirit, soul and body be inundated with the life of God in Jesus Name. Amen.
