Know God As Father

“And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” John 17:3

In the heart of everyone, there is the search for a Father. This is because, in the heart of every man or woman, there is the desire for affirmation.

You cannot get this affirmation from anywhere else other than your heavenly Father. This is why you need to know God as Father.

Knowing God as Father will put an end to your search for affirmation. Therefore, nobody will be able to intimidate you or make you compromise your faith. This is because, your allegiance would be to your Father from whom you get your affirmation. When your life is lived in this way, obeying God becomes easy. Living right also becomes easy. Why? You have met your Father.

I John 2:24(GW) says, “Make sure that the message you heard from the beginning lives in you. If that message lives in you, you will also live in the Son and in the Father.” Therefore, if the Word of God abides in you 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.

Some other benefits of continuing in the Word of God are as follows: It will cause the Zoe life of God to 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. (See John 17:3)

Prayer.
Dear Father, as I set my heart to know You, may
my spirit, soul and body be inundated with Your life, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
