Heath Adamson: The Sacred Chase Devotional Day 1

“Knowing Christ”

When God became tangibly real to me at seventeen, and I discovered how deep and rich the grace of God is, it seemed far too good to be true. The apostle Paul expressed it this way in Ephesians 3:17–19: “That you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.” 

Love is a person (1 John 4:8). Without Christ, we cannot know God. Through Christ and our salvation in Him, the most unbelievable privilege and reality in the universe becomes ours. We can know God intimately and personally. 

I am thankful for eternal life (John 3:16), but I am equally thankful for the ability to know God in this life too. In today’s Scripture passage, Paul invites the Ephesians (and through these verses the Holy Spirit invites us too) to “know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge” (Eph. 3:19). How can you know something that surpasses being known? You have just officially learned about the sacred chase. In this verse, we have a divine invitation to let loose our deep, pent-up hunger for God and point every area of our lives in God’s direction. 

God put eternity in our hearts (Eccles. 3:11) and also invites us to search for the unsearchable (Prov. 25:2). We have a deep longing to see the Unseen One, though we may not always feel that way. 

It is almost as if God says, "Hey, there is no way you will ever know, understand, or even begin to figure out how crazy I am about you. But go ahead and try! I will enjoy every second of it. I have been waiting for this moment since long before you were born."

The only rational commitment you and I can make to Jesus, given He laid His life down for us, is complete and total surrender to live a life of love and devotion to God (Luke 9:23).


What is motivating you to undertake the sacred chase?

The Sacred Chase

The sacred chase is the audacious pursuit of God and God’s reckless love for you. All of heaven desires to see your life soaked with the reality of God’s presence. As Heath Adamson reminds us in this week-long devotional, pursuing this is worth all of your efforts. The prize is the reality of Jesus in your life today.
