Who Is God?નમૂનો

He Knows You 

“The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble, and He knows those who take refuge in Him.” Nahum 1:7

Father God is omniscient; He knows everybody. But I’m not talking about Him knowing us in the objective sense. I’m talking about Him knowing us intimately and tenderly. He resists the proud, but He knows everyone who seeks to take refuge in Him with a sincere and humble heart.

When we come to Abba as a child, He stoops down because He is tender and sensitive. When we come to Him to take refuge in Him, He meets us in that place. He knows us. The Lord is looking to and fro across the earth for someone who will come to Him and truly rely on Him to be their God.

As you and I come to the Lord with our weaknesses, with our problems, with our needs, with our sin, with our fears and everything else that concerns us, and we open our souls to Him, looking to Him to be our help, He is eager to be our Helper. You can be assured not just that He knows who you are in a general sense, but that He loves you deeply, personally, and specifically—Jesus said, in fact, God knows every hair on your head (Luke 12:7).

Beloved, God is calling you to take refuge in Him—to talk to Him as you would talk to a friend, to share the deepest needs and burdens of your heart with Him. As you do, be assured that He hears you, knows you, and loves you with the type of tender love a mother and father have for their little child. And He will draw near to you, strengthen you, and be your stronghold in the day of trouble.
