Intimacy Blockers
Something inside of us desires a connection with the invisible God—not at a distance, nor on the outside with the door locked keeping us from His presence. We are made to know God in a personal way.
The Hebrew word yada means “to know.” In fact, it is the word used in the Old Testament “to know God intimately.” We are to know Him in the most intimate, close way possible for a human. It says in Deuteronomy 4:7: “Yes. What other great nation has gods that are intimate with them the way God, our God, is with us, always ready to listen to us?” Our Lord wants intimacy with you.
Some of us have what I like to call “intimacy blockers.” An intimacy blocker is something in our life that blocks us from intimacy with God and others. It is important to address these blockers in our life so that we can tear them down.
Perhaps, an intimacy blocker you have is fear of rejection. You struggle with getting close to people because you are afraid they will reject you. Maybe you fear getting hurt or exploited again. Another example of an intimacy blocker can be the inability to trust. You cannot trust others due to the traumas you’ve had in your life. These blockers prevent you from getting close to someone. A blocker could be having low self-worth. You just do not see yourself as worthy.
Everybody has struggles that stand in the way of intimacy with others and God. Through Scripture we see people with similar problems to the ones we have. For instance, lepers had a fear of rejection, but when one came to Jesus, he was cleansed and healed. How about the woman at the well? She had fear of being hurt and exploited as in all her bad relationships. But when she approached Jesus, He did not hurt her. He satisfied her heart with His presence. And let’s not forget the thief on the cross who spent his life in sin. He did not believe he was worthy, but that day on the cross Jesus broke through and touched him.
Sin keeps us from intimacy with God. Whatever your intimacy blocker is, it is time to tear it down so that you can embrace the living God.

Who are the gatekeepers of this generation? Who unlocks the door for God’s people to enter into His presence? Jesus is pursing you because He wants you. But the keys are in your hands. You must unlock the door to let Him into your life. Read this plan and be encouraged to seek intimacy with God.
