Knowing God, Do We Really Know Him
God is eternal always and forever(a)
has no beginning and will have no end
in His holy word has revealed Himself
to be God almighty our forever friend
One can never know God too well
so daily exposure to God's living word(b)
is a real necessity to grow in grace
to neglect His word is truly absurd
Learning biblical meditation is so vital(c)
to chew on God's truth to deeply intake
grasping His truth and all it means
feeding on God's word for my soul's sake
Taking your Lord with you everywhere
never be embarrassed by what anyone says
keeping in step with His eternal word
be faithful to Jesus all your days(d)
Consider well my reading of the scriptures(e)
to depend on the holy spirit's direction(f)
be sure I'm walking in Jesus holy steps(f)
aim always listen to His gracious correction
(Bible references :
(a) Psalm 90: 2
(b) Joshua 1: 8
(c) Psalm 19: 14
(d) Deuteronomy 7: 9
(e) Psalm 1: 2
(f) Romans 15: 13)
I've written this after pondering on the following appraisal of knowing God and whether if I really do?
Have you read the Bible from cover to cover? Is the Holy Spirit your teacher? Are you walking in His footsteps?
The Word of God is not a buffet for us to pick and choose what we wish. God is the Word, so do you honestly love all of it and meditate on it with the goal of knowing Him so you can live according to His commandments while you abide in Him?)
